I play the same way, usually. For me, I have had times where I just have to
reload the mission, but I never save or load from within a mission.
This may sound really stupid, (in fact, I'm sure it will) but I sometimes
talk out my orders, and my recruits replies, or at least imagine it this
way. It almost adds a roleplaying element to the game...sometimes I even
feel a sense of dramatic pride and respect for the soldier who just gave his
life to let his fellow soldiers escape to safety.
God, I must suck...
