Ok, I don't know if any of you have noticed, but sometimes it seems all too likely to progress up the trait levels quickly, so I did a test.
My fresh Julii general on the campaign successfully defended a battle against an equally strengthed Brutii army (I've been outlawed). When it came to my next turn, I looked at the traits awarded parchment and noticed that my general had been awarded the Confident Commander (+1) AND the Good Commander (+2) trait. It should require 2 points to reach the second level of this trait and from looking at the triggers only 1 point should be being received!
I have also had a general go from fresh to Superior Defender in one go. That normally would require 4 points to reach the Superior threshold. Again, I looked at the trigger and the trigger is supposed to award only 2 towards the Good Defender trait. Again this appears to be doubled.
So far I haven't found out whether this is for all traits, and it's conceivable that it would be, but it is certainly there for (all?) the combat traits.
More testing needed to done to verify.
