Is John Adams a good general in Evony?

John Adams is a Duty General who sees his buffs activate when made the Stables Officer. Although his Special Skill is relatively similar to other available Stable Officers, he really comes into his own when you start to unlock his Ascension Skills. These include buffs to in-city troops, mounted troops, in-rally troops, and even debuffs to enemy troops.
