Never try to engage your HQ units in a front line battle. (Some players are even using their HQ for recon, ) I think there should be greater penalty for using HQs in combat.

As you may know over the years there has been several rule changes to penalise payers who try this kind of tactic and losing your HQ now has some serious consequences, also in the WW1 title France 14 if you are outside your HQ's command range or you lose your HQ all the units controlled by that HQ drop morale by one level.

Generally, I think that the players should acquire some kind of a general gentlemen rules of a gameplay. I´m planning to do something in this regard for some time now, we´ll see

A lot of players stick to regular opponents who play these games in a style that they are comfortable with, some players like very historical play, some players like to play using any legal tactic that the engine allows, that is why when you try a new opponent it can be a good idea to find out what tactics they think is acceptable play and what is not. ;)
