Bug Description

When Sentry is switched from Prefer Rookies to Prefer Heroes, a lot of soldiers must be swapped until final "Hero" is sent from Headquarters. It seems that the weakest soldier (from set of stronger soldiers) is sent to replace current rookie. It is unnecessary and time consuming behavior.

I would expect that the strongest available soldier will be sent from HQ immediately after mentioned soldier policy change is toggled.
