Role, availability & values
His profile has 1,000 hit points, 40% ranged resistance, 7 speed and 24 Line of Sight. The hand attack deals 40 damage every two seconds; siege deals 14 damage at range 6 every three seconds. Rough and Tumble is a sabre blow that damages all units in its area. Old Hickory greatly increases the hit points of friendly units. He can claim Treasures and build Trading Posts, and he collapses at zero hit points rather than dying; an ally or building nearby can revive him once he regenerates to 100 hit points.
Matchup & timing
Use Rough and Tumble when enemies are grouped within its area, then use Old Hickory to help the friendly force hold a decisive position. Keep Jackson near the units receiving his support and avoid exposing the hero to concentrated fire while the battle’s objective is active. His utility is tied to the Historical Battle profile and should not be assumed to replace a standard United States Explorer in every match.
Scenario commander with support abilities
The battle presents Jackson as the commander of the United States force. His two named abilities serve different purposes: Rough and Tumble hits multiple nearby enemies, while Old Hickory raises the hit points of friendly units. The source profile does not provide reliable cooldown values, so use the in-game ability indicators for availability rather than assuming a fixed timer.
