First of all AWESOME mod ... been playing RTR for sometime and this is a nice step up

Playing as the romani-turtling-into about 25 years-hold all of italian peninsula+sicily+2 islands off the western coast... my problem is i dont have any half decent generals... the best i have is my my 57 year old faction leader with 2 command stars (he has maxed out influence and management )and none of the other have even one command star!!! got lots of junk adoption options ... best being one point influence but dull and languorous!!! i tried fighting battles with some captains to get man of the hour - no use there either.. my one silver chevron came up dead and 3 bronze chevron captain had nothing on him!!! What am i doing wrong? Even if i fight heroic victories and get one command star they seem to lose it by just spending a coulpe of turns in a new city and picking up a trait like connoiseur or something
