When units are organized in Division/Brigade level formations the Leader is generally enlisted at the head of other units in Setup Excel sheet.

ex:

StartUnit|7|uni_FRA_Lagrange1
uni_FRA_LightBde12
uni_FRA_LineBde40
uni_FRA_LineBde40
uni_FRA_LineBde40
uni_FRA_FootArty3
EndUnit|uni_FRA_FootArty3

data from Col C of Setup 1813 Excel sheet

Now it happens that's not true for some supporting Leaders/units:

[color="Red"]StartUnit|2|uni_FRA_Med
EndUnit|uni_FRA_Larrey1[/color]

or:

[color="Red"]StartUnit|2|uni_FRA_Pon
EndUnit|uni_FRA_Eble1[/color]

I just noticed enlisted exceptions, although working for most aspects are troublesome in relation to specific event-commands: SelUnqSubUnit, RemoveCuSubUnit,...

I suggest to correct them all to default "Leader on head" way:

[color="RoyalBlue"]StartUnit|2|uni_FRA_Larrey1
EndUnit|uni_FRA_Med

StartUnit|2|uni_FRA_Eble1
EndUnit|uni_FRA_Pon[/color]

...waiting for confirmation!

I don't think it has any impact, have you seen some? The engine reorder leaders to the start of the units anyway.

Yes. In WIA, all 'non-Division' combinations MUST have leader listed [color="Red"]last[/color].

Otherwise, the unit appears on the map as the combat unit portrait, not the leader portrait.

I assume NCP engine works the same way.

SelUnqSubUnit does not work and is unable to properly locate Leaders, when they do not figure out as first unit in a Division or Brigade formations.

[color="Red"]Guess it could be wise to move leader on top![/color]
Thank also to Lodilefty's suggestion!
