Does Wolfpack stack with leadership? Yes. I wonder what would be good in his free slot? Sailor, explosives or early warning? |

I wonder what would be good in his free slot? Sailor, explosives or early warning? I would probably say Wolfpack. With Navy you always want your units operating as a group, with leadership and Wolfpack (+Medal) he could provide up to a +50 attack modifier to allies. |

With Navy you always want your units operating as a group, with leadership and Wolfpack (+Medal) he could provide up to a +50 attack modifier to allies. I came here to this specific discussion because I realized the same about Wolfpack on Darlan and wanted to see others' povs. I agree that Wolfpack should be on Darlan. Any other commander can carry other skills like Early warning, etc, but with only one can you double buff a 6 unit Naval squad so much. A Man made Naval Hurricane of damage.. |

Bumping this up. I feel like my Darlan is very squishy, but I could just raise his rank as opposed to buying Early Warning.
Wolfpack is still an option. If you force him to only appear on Elite Forces, maybe Inferior Victory might work? I don't think I'd want to play Challenge that much to get it.
There are also Rumour and Explosives. Probably Explosives since I have Doenitz and Nimitz as Wolfpack + Rumour admirals.
Thoughts?

I'd say wolfpack, as he is the only f2p general who can give +50 boost (leadership is unique to Darlan and Cunningham I think) |

My personal thought is that Early Warning is a bit over-rated. I went through the hard Pacific front without any of my Admirals having it (well, technically Horton has it, but I haven't upgraded it yet) and, truth be told, only in the last mission a couple of my Admirals has been close to dying (and it wasn't of any importance anyway).
New skills are still locked behind Cold war challenges and we don't know for sure whether we'll get access to them in the near future. So, I think, that Rumor and different forms of damage increase (Explosives, Sailor etc) are best options at the moment. But the future of Rumor is very bleak... Rumor always was a very powerful weapon against overpowered enemies Now ET is trying to close this window of opportunity. I personally think it is an error because Rumor is a tactical instrument of the play, while rough damage is not. I don't like this change...

Agreed that Early Warning is not that useful (and more generally, non-rumor defensive perks). As for rumor’s future, are you referring to the Centurian’s perk or the perk that does not allow for reduced morale? I think the latter is fine if it’s on one or two enemy generals so not *every* general can be rumor-locked, but if it’s everywhere then agreed: this would only necessitate the purchasing of high-damage IAPs that require zero skill. It’s the problem with the excellence medal, and why it was a mistake. |

Smoke screened Centurions are still vulnerable to air attacks....and the Stuka is Rumor capable. This might work with (flanked) Centurions. Think I'll run some tests😊 Darlan....Dont leave home without him😉  |

Probably Explosives since I have Doenitz and Nimitz as Wolfpack + Rumour admirals. Thoughts? I'm using my admirals rather aggressively (honor, defense and swift ribbon; rank is m gen) and for Darlan to stay above 50% health, I gave him the royal navy medal (Yamaguchi is fine with the 5% heal per turn). He's also doing daily invasions on auto since he won't be in chaos thanks to his Leadership. Donitz, the former navy goat still has rumor + explosive; this means that Darlan can focus on his support role with Wolfpack while Yamaguchi is built for damage.
And stoic, journeykeen, we now have two more defensive skills available: Night Raid and Fortification  |
