Starting commander 95% of the time. Never the scout. I do not use anyone without leadership.

I usually patrol with commander and scout=profet. And use profet for first battles but have him ready to go for a dom kill or whatever is needed (reanimating or similar). Unless as always there is a H3 priest available.

I find that Sermon of Courage + Smite is valuable enough that I usually prophetize my starting commander instead of patrolling on the first turn. I usually don't prophetize the scout unless it's vital that I get more gold on the first turn (thus, patrolling + prophet is required), which is for gold-hungry nations like Niefelheim. Even so I am usually dissatisfied with the scout prophet--it just doesn't seem thematic in many cases.
