Leader activation changing

The following just happened to me in a Polish campaign of NCP. When I had resolved the previous turn, given my orders, and saved, Lefebvre (besieging Danzig) was activated, i.e. he could adopt an offensive stance. When I opened the game again to resolve the next turn, Lefebvre was suddenly inactive and reverted to defensive stance. This happened *during* the turn, to be sure, between resolution phases. How can this be? Thanks for any explanation.

This can't be
Do you have the game around?

Maybe it shouldn't be. But it just happened to me again, with two leaders, to boot. When I opened the turn the first time, two corps commanders were active who had gone inactive when I opened it again.
Only how to prove this? When you open the saved file again, you no longer see they were active the first time ...

Her'e how: Save the first file; then, if the activation is different, save under another name.

But that's the problem. When you open the first saved file again, it has already changed ...

if you delete the ORD file, are they back to active?

Is there an .ord file before I issue orders? I shall try this, should it happen again. Thanks.

no, ORD files are generated when you save your orders.
