I assume that you have either figured this stuff out or have moved on, so I will answer your questions assuming other novices have your same questions. Your questions hit right at the heart of the game, and I agree that definative answers seem elusive at this point.
1) When makes a good theater commander? I can't tell you for sure, but I believe a wide array of ratings are used in different situations. Theater commanders mainly assist with army commanders in gaining initiative, which I believe is based upon his attack rating (whether he himself gets activated). A TC needs to be activated himself to assist the AC in gaining initiative. Unless it works differntly than army commanders, the attack rating matters. I also think the TC can assist in commiting units to combat when an AC is not present. Ill be honest, I need more info on TCs myself.
2) The AC really does alot as far as commiting units, but the manual also says that the ACs specialty ratings also modifiy the specialty ratings of other commands under them. So, I am going to say that for ACs all the combat rating matter.
3) I have seen no advantage to naval commanders getting initiative when they command ships. The naval part of the game does not rely on initiative like the ground part of the game does. I commit my naval commanders to combat without regard to initiative. Naval invasions are a different story and I will address that in your other thread.
