Often very smart. But they often inspire through threat of harm and based on their Government backing, and bark orders without explaining why, because persuasion is not their job. They're not there to talk soldiers into following their orders and so they don't ever develop a skill of persuasion. I agree. I think intelligence should be a secondary stat for fighters with feats to reward that. I just don't know that persuasion is in their field. But I remain open to being convinced. I find this a pretty fun discussion. And we all need fun discussions these days I suspect.</blockquote>
