Does anyone notice that Picton in PTW is almost always the first one that gets killed? At least to me I always kill him in the most unexpected moment; arty fire, musket fire etc. Would it be some sort of hidden setting?

No seriously, I tend to kill lots of leaders in ranged fire.

Lt. Lee - I wouldnt know cause I end up losing ALL of my Allied generals in that one!! [:D]

Blucher too! Even when he is not on the board!

Ok - joking aside - Picton is part of a brigade that has great morale - maybe its because his unit hangs in there longer than the rest?

I think Picton lived through two of my QBs and one of the Twin Battles game I played. I used to lose him in Waterloo all of the time. Made me mad but I figured that you cant beat FATE!![:D]
