Weeeeelllllll, maybe yes and maybe no. Ron is a chess genius,
according to the books. Strategy, strategy, strategy, imagination and
thinking three moves out in every single direction is what it takes to
consistently win chess matches. Ron might make spur-of-the-moment
decisions, but they're well thought out spur-of-the-moment decisions
(example: the chess game sacrifice in PS/SS). 

Unfortunately, I'm looking at the chess game in PS/SS as the
foreshadowing event, rather than just the wand cores. What if Ron
winds up responsible for moving people and resources around in the WW
to combat LV? Instead of sacrificing himself or game pieces, which we
know he's capable of doing, he'll wind up having to sacrifice people
he knows and cares about.
