That role is really filled by higher leadership and military directors in Eve, who determine the strategy of a conflict, the fleet doctrines of a Corp or alliance, and direct the FCs towards objectives and goals. FCs themselves are really battlefield commanders, the lieutenants, captains, majors and colonels that lead and maneuver tactical subunits. Wellington said that his only requirement for his lieutenants - who led from the front - was that they be brave. At its most basic, this still holds true. A skirmish FW FC leading Atrons into battle need not be a tactical genius, nor need he necessarily survive the charge, though it helps; above all he must be brave enough to form and fight. The rest is gravy.Ouso Borghesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15946807359634777538noreply@blogger.com
