When Commissar's attempt to recover units, do they have to roll under the Commissar's morale? I would guess so, as the rule says "Use the KOM's morale value in place of the units' morale, and roll for recovery for each of the units" and units have to roll under their morale. I just wanted to confirm.
That's how we've played it.
Along those lines, permit me to ask a related question. If your Kommisar fails to rally the troops, and a step dies as a result, does your Kommisar roll for Leader Casualties (6.7) to see if someone fragged him?

I don't think so, but I like the idea.

Harsh....This is the Soviet Army in WWII not Vietnam....However I still think KOM should be allowed to "help" rally leaders. Vince and I played it that way at first and I well remember seeing a KOM execute my Maj for not rallying, needless to say he was the Commanding Officer ...what fun
