Commander's Tactical Evaluation

Reviewed by Don
¹ “Hannibal is an Exclusive paid Footmen/Cavalry hybrid tactician. His Skill 8 (Dual Strike) grants all friendly Footman and Cavalry squads the Raid effect: a 30% chance each round for +1 normal attack, and a 50% chance whenever an additional attack triggers to cast the skill a second time. Skill 5 (Crescent Tactics) triggers after normal attacks (80% chance) to boost Front-row and Back-row damage dealt by +50% (stackable up to 4 layers) at the cost of +20% damage taken by the Middle row, while Skill 2 (Rear Escort) activates -80% damage taken and Taunt on Hannibal starting in round 4 (or immediately when any ally drops below 50% HP).”

Deployment Summary: Hannibal is a Support commander introduced in SP (rated Highest Tier). Commands Footmens in the Middle row (with secondary flexibility in the Front row), following an unlock priority of 8th - 6th - 7th.

² Special Mechanics & Formation Advisory

Crescent Tactics supercharges Front and Back row damage (+50% per stack) while Rear Escort gives Hannibal -80% damage taken when an ally drops below 50% HP.
