Well, the hidden stats are only hidden for a certain time. When your generals participate in battles, then one or more of their attributes become unhidden. So, the more you use them, the faster you'll be able to figure out who is good and who is not.

For now I'm leaving attributes visible and historical. I'm playing in conjunction with reading about the American Civil War, so I like to be able to link history with historical accuracy in FoF. Once I have a game or two under my belt, then I may experiment with hidden and randon skills.

ORIGINAL: Randomizer

The random statistics does add much to the game and I use it exclusively now BUT seeing Bobby Lee or Sam Grant as hopeless incompetants is hard to watch at times.  Particularly when your powerhouse commander ends up as Dan Sickles[:(]

Fun thing ofc is when you start a pbem game and AFTER promoting all the generals you normally promote you realise that you are playing with Hidden and Randomised stats...Have cost me two pbem games [:D]
