Can we get a fire commander button

So Halleck got his butt handed to him in Kentucky (big surprise) and I dismissed him, only he reappeared later after his dismissal ran out. I like this feature, it makes great sense...for example McDowell and other generals becoming corps commanders later. However sometimes I'm just so irritated at them I'd like to send them to Dakota to fight Indians for the duration. Would it be possible to have a permanent removal button?

I'm half kidding, but if it would be an easy add it would be great.[:'(]

I read the rules and it says if you dismiss an officer with no command he goes away for 18 months I believe.

Why, yes, it is in the works! It will have a little pop up screen with a guy that looks an awful lot like a NY State real estate developer and he'll point and say, "You're Fired!!" He will wearing the respective garb of whatever side you're playing. [:)]

That will be in version 1.09.05.06

As the CSA, I have "fired" a couple of commanders by strat-moving them past Union gunboats (and clicking yes after the op-fire warning).

For some reason, they don't come back from their little forays into the water...

You are a sick, sick man. Poor pixelated generals probably never see it coming. Happy at their new assignment and full of high spirits...

How do you sleep at night?

Excellent ! [:D] But this really shows the necessity for a real "Fire guy" button [:'(] : how can the US do ? [:D]

I managed to temporarily lose Sherman (luckily only wounded) by strat moving him using River movement past some confederates who must have had heavy artillery. So it is doable as the US.

If you dismiss a Unit commander (non AC/TC leader), the leader gets a 50 delay, so he's out of the war (and it costs nothing).

Excellent, guess I have only gotten really mad at AC and TC....aka Halleck and Fremont. Guess it works for me as is.
