A Commander can make the troops fight better than their expected performance if one can convince the common troopers the importance of holding a specific area. During WWII, it was the Commissars on the field who where assigned the task to inspire patriotic zeal into the soldiers. Most infamous the order "Not one step back" which prohibited retreat no matter the circumstances, often to catastrophic results. Violators where often shot by the commissar himself. Thousands of soldiers were killed in so called "Last Stands" which were more or less suicide for the soldiers, thanks to the lack of tactical knowledge of the commanding Commissars, who were unable to pick their battles effectively. The modernization of the Red Army has lead to that only Commanders are allowed to issue such orders, and summary executions are now just a dark spot in the Union's history record. A further change is the standing order that all available units are to come to the aid of any "Last Stands", even if they have to neglect target of opportunities to do so.
