Counterattack and revenge doesn't participate from each other. I tested it with Moltke the younger and he does ~100 counterattack and the second counter damage was about ~80. I use Revenge with Jackson (who doesn't have Counterattack) and his second hit is always weaker than the first one. So, I presume the second attack is weaker by default. So, I think, that Counterattack and Revenge stack together, but we need to test Revenge with and without counterattack. All in all, both skills are quite good, because our units counterattack far more often than attack in this game. No surprise, AI uses an endless spamming quite often in all missions. Is it better than Pierce? |

A skill that is better on cavarly or artillery units due to bad defense. But really, its tolerable not great at best. Its not like escort in ew6 We also have escort here.  Escort ew6 was best cuz it stacked. And 20% >>>>>>> 16% |

I do regret giving him cavarly expert instead of surprise, but then again, cavarly master does have a medal for it whereas surprise doesn’t. |

I do regret giving him cavarly expert instead of surprise, but then again, cavarly master does have a medal for it whereas surprise doesn’t. PF is a must-have, obviously. (Except for Navy, lol) I prefer Surprise Attack over Cavalry Expert. It’s true that we don’t know as of yet how high is the bonus of the medal, but I feel that Surprise Attack's bonus is better because it’s gradual and eventually becomes better than Cavalry Expert. Cavalry Expert's bonus is currently too small in my opinion. You can use it if you want an immediate boost, though. And, over Surprise Attack, I prefer Cavalry Commander. It may not stack anymore, but the general himself also receives the bonus, which essentially gives him a second Precision Strike. Considering that Precision Strike is a must-have skill for Cavalry, Cavalry Commander is a great skill IMO. |

Is it better than Pierce? It is some sort of a gambling, but if it triggers - it does certainly pay off. Jackson alone can clear up the whole area. |
