We have removed scouts with skills from the game on Facebook so your Chief Scout now handles all scouting by himself.
It should now be much more simple to understand and use.
On mobile this change will not happen until when the 2016 app is released (around April). When it's added to mobile all your scouts will be sacked and you will get the sign-on fee you paid for them refunded.
Your Chief Scout has 15 in all scouting skills you know from the old system. For every level of staff booster you give your Cheif Scout his skills will improve with +1. This means he will have 20 in all skills and be 100% accurate in most things and close to in a few others (speciality, aggression, professionalism and leadership) when he is at level 5.
The reason why we are changing this to a simpler mode is that it was very hard for new users to understand.
