Positioning 0-0 leaders

RE: Positioning 0-0 leaders
Placing a leader alone in the hex behind troops make him a more attractive target for bombardment. Easier to kill and if disrupted, all units adjacent to him will need to activate one hex at a time and cannot perform combat movement (assuming no other leader can activate them).

But leaders are very precious for the Soviets and even more so for the Ethiopians, so keeping one behind troops stacked with a combat unit (to absorb the X and 2X results) often makes sense. I try to conserve my leaders by not moving them adjacent to enemy units until the enemy units are engaged in an assault. But if the enemy units took all their opportunity fire before I move my leader and I have a higher initiative level, I may risk it and move my leader adjacent to the enemy units with the hope I will win the initiative next turn.
