Why? The Japanese bomber pilots sure found his unwillingness to present a neat target absolutely terrible

To clarify, Inspiration equals Morale and Leadership equals Skill in the chart. Also, Gary could find no reference in the code for the Admin skill impacting ship repair.


In the manual it says Naval HQs speed up repair time (see 8.1.1 in manual). So which skill helps speed up repair time then?

cheers

Ah. Inspiration is the ability to get those under you to so something incredibly brave/stupid/foolhardy.

Leadership is that what they are doing is right. Custer was a greatly inspired leader, but dumber than a fence post.

Rule of thumb. High Inspiration, High Leadership - good.

Low Inspiration, High Leadership - not bad, could be good.

High Inspiration, Low Leadership - Not good.

Low Inspiration, Low Leadership - CinC Head Cleaning Detail Adak.


That was extremely helpful synthesis Rick!

Status: offline 		From what I have read here, it seems that the 5 skill catagory ratings for each
leader is what the game engine reads when calculating outcomes. Words like
promising and aggressiveness are nice when explaining to the player but the
numbers in the skill ratings are the real key. NOW, if there just was an easy
way to find them without looking at the entire list (takes much time), I would
get to play the game alot faster....

Unfortunately, its also wrong for the game. High Inspiration - rapid morale recovery. Low Inspiration - slow morale recovery. Leadership is meaningless except for assisting in pilot training.

I thought, and as I understand it was confirmed by testers, that leaders with high admin ratings significantly speed up repair, but this ability is not listed!? Can someone explain this please?

Haha i figured this one out myself. I try to replace high Admin leaders when in port reapieing my TF.

Question: When a TF, either Air Combat, or Surface, transport whatever; If you have a good captain on CV for instance, and you have a Really good Admiral in charge of the TF, which value is used? Or both?
And if the TF Leader is awesome, does it matter if your ship captains have poor numbers?
