How to have your preferred general to be a seawolf-panzer_leader, or a fortress_buster-fleet_destroyer-carpet_bomber-engineer-trickster?
Well, I’m likely to become the one hundredth people to reveal such a hot-water secret, but after all someone might have missed it in the past, and might find these lines to e useful.
First, open the db/leaders/(nation name).xls chosen file using WordPad. Then choose a leader, and modify his skill parameter (the sixth from left) as you wish, using the simple formula:
Σ (skill position value)
Here below are the skill position values:
0 no skill
1 logistic_wizard
2 defensive_doctrine
4 offensive_doctrine
8 winter_specialist
16 trickster
32 engineer
64 fortress_buster
128 panzer_leader
256 commando
512 old_guard
1024 seawolf
2048 blockade_runner
4096 superior_tactician
8192 spotter
16384 tank_buster
32768 carpet_bomber
65536 night_flyer
131072 fleet_destroyer
Thus, a logistic_wizard-defensive_doctrine is 3 (1 + 2); a trickster-engineer-panzer_leader is 176 (16 + 32 + 128), while a trickster-engineer-panzer_leader-logistic_wizard is 177 (16 + 32 + 128 + 1); and so on. All numerical combinations are possible (up to all 18 skills contemporaneously).
