I'm sure people have gotten past this. But I would like to say I have tried to complete this for over 2 hours and I have completely given up. I really would like to play the campaign but I'm not going to waste my time over something as silly as a "leader" getting himself killed everytime.
Also the save system needs to be changed so that the player can create saves along the way so they don't have to revert to the autosaves. The save button is always greyed out.
