    Sorry if these questions seem stupid but I'm not an native speaker of the english tongue and thats why I probably miss sometimes the point.
    Stars give a bonus in defense and morale only to soldiers near to the general AFAIK but are hugely overpowered in autocalculated battles, so you are often forced to fight on the battlefield if you don't want your Thorakitai Agemata Basilikou to be slaughtered by a bunch of peasants led by a 10 star AI general.
    EB team gave AI generals lots of stars to grant them superiority against the player at least in auto-resolved fights.

    Ok it's THAT bonus. I think the general has to stand behind the troops

    Bah forget the stars.. they are only over polished decorations for you'r FM while standing in the battle map. I prefer morale boost many times over than any number of command stars. and i dont like the idea of my FM always standing behind his men blowing his horn from time to time. i ussualy order my FM to flank the enemy, engage the enemies cavalry, charge the enemies infantry(so long as its not heavy infantry or pahalnx) and so on. This way my FM always get traits such as Roman Hero to Legendary Hero(+5 to morale) this way my men are hard as bricks to break and would end-up fighting to the last man rather then run like little girls Lol.

    Although i have been wondering why the AI's FM have like 6-10 stars when their trait list only depicts them to have only 4-5 O.o
