Yes I agree if the commander HQ unit is 200 km further he shouldn't die except if HQ is at range of a rocket or ICBM unit.

Tell Heydrich that in 1942 or Rommel when he got strafed and put out of action.....

Both of those had their HQ on the frontline, not 200 km behind it!
And Rommal had been doing that stuff in france as well.
And on the Italian front, back in WW1.

And airforce is really just long range artillery with human level target selection.

In this game one hex = 200 km I will agree to your statement if i stacked the HQ.

So 5 hex is 1000 km and is the minimal distance between 2 city center in that game. I bet you didn't read the manual for the distance. But it say commander can visit the frontline if they got high heroism (probably in this world commander don't care about travelling 200 or 1000 km just to motivate troops.)

Moving a commander and some staff in a scout car is way easier then a format of hundreds of people.

And a turn is like a full season, so plenty of time for him to drive between the HQ and the Troops, so he just happens to be at the frontline (and not get out there ASAP) when the attack comes.

Yeah, that skill and the cards that buff it finally started making sense.

It should just be a bit clearer that can happen, so people are not blindsided by it.
