I like it in principle and have only skimmed it so far, but one comment 

"Commanders may, through force of will and training, lead their units to
perform above and beyond the expected norm. This is accomplished by the
Command element (Company or Force) having "command chits". Command chits
are assigned based on the Leadership Rating of the command element.
E.g., a (Green-1/Blue-1/Orange-1) command element gets 1 command chit. A
(Green-2/Blue-2/Orange-2) command element gets 2 command chits. A
(Green-3/Blue-3/Orange-3) command element gets 3 command chits.

Command chits may be used to attempt to give a unit in the direct chain
of command down an extra action. "

Doesn't this mean the worst leaders (grade 3) get the most chances to
pull something out of the hat? Or was this done on purpose to counteract
their greater chance of failure on each attempt?

Cheers
