Leader with no ability

I was awarded the leader 'Sebastian Koenig' in the Stalingrad scenario but he did not have any ability assigned to him. I don't know if this is a bug/oversight or not.

I have also gotten one of those as well. I believe it was even the same name, though I can't find him at the moment. I also got an award, but the "cross" didn't show up in the Battle History.

That Cross on the left, check that one?

The first cross was won in the Low Countries. I was awarded a second one during Sea Lion, but it didn't show up in the Battle History. It flashed up on the screen and hit continue when I got it. However, when I checked the Battle History log, the icon was not being displayed.

Mouse over the left cross.
Iron Cross 1st Class overwrites Iron Cross 2nd class.

Oh crap, sorry, I didn't notice that. I just assumed that there were three spots for three awards, like there are three spots for the Heroes. What are the other two spots for then? Different type of awards? Guess I haven't progressed far enough in the campaign to see those, yet.

I'll also keep a look out and get a screenshot next time a leader with no bonus comes up. I had the same thing happen as Pickle stated in the OP. I may have lost him on a reload and then had a different battle order which caused the unit to not get a leader at that time. If it happens again, I will document it.

I found another leader with no ability...Andreas Wagner. I don't know if this helps to locate problem or not.

Marked in The Bug thread, we'll keep an eye on this.

Arty heroes with +1 range ability do not display their bonus in the UI (but they still should work). This is a bug that will be addressed in the next update.

Oh cool, I didn't know there was a Hero that increased range. That would really come in handy. I imagine it's only for arty, AA and maybe AT?

Arty only so far, but I'll change it to all ranged types (so NOT AT).
