Does anyone know what the Admiral Ability Rank I and Rank II are supposed to be?

Over the last couple of days as I made ranks in Admiral I saw messages that said I'd received new Admiral Abilities. I can even see the references in the Tour of Duty section of my Accolades list, which just says to press P for powers. When I check my (P)owers List, there is nothing new for either Ground or Space. Any suggestions?

    You do not get any additional abilities at Admiral, but previously gained abilities are ranked up instead. You can check out http://stowiki.org/wiki/Player_Abilities for a list of abilities granted at each rank.

    Thanks Morin. Though it seems odd that they would announce in game (info and Accolades) that you have a "new" power if rather you just get a boost to previous abilities.

    I haven't reached Admiral yet, so I am just going by what is in the wiki. It could be wrong. I'm not sure, but there it is. lol

    They are passive abilities. You don't show in the active Powers window. The Fleet Support ability is a 5% chance for a one or more ships to appear to help if you drop below 50% Hull. And there is a team buff at you get at Adm,5. The buff depends on which profession you took. (I may be wrong on these). Tactical is a Damage buff. Science is a Health Regen buff. and Enginneer is a Damage Resistance buff.

    Science Captains get Photonic Fleet II at RA2. You'd need to do some research for the others, but it is likely that they get an enhanced version of whatever you received at Captain 8.

    Orbital Strike I and II are both very very weak, your ground weapons will do much more damage.
