Generals with more than 1 HP?

Let me put it from this perspective:

You guys, EB, are investing major into the trait system. Would kind of suck if all of that was for nothing.

I say give 'em 2hp. But give 'em the ability to earn more. As for the bodyguard... whatever.


Along the same vein: Many great generals had officers by their side. Old Alex had Seluecus (sic), Ptolemy, et al. So to should this be reflected in-game.

If I go to war with 2, 3 or 4 extra generals, I would like to see them gain something more than experience for their troubles. Being with a great commander should give them a few traits of their own. Good or bad!

How about "right-hand man, giving a general extra HPs when not in command? Hell, there is a whole bunch of cool thing that could be done!

Or are we cursed... and this is hard coded?

Thanks,
