I wonder if Hannibal should get the Military Genius trait (and Scipio as well), how many abilities maximum can have a leader otherwise?

I think a leader can have 4 attributes.

with the military genius ability, a leader can get 10 abilities;
Hannibal and scipio should get this trait.

all leaders can have an infinity of abilities. Military genius is a trick to show only one icon on the unit pannel, but nothing more

Is this a rhetorical question? Of course Hannibal was a genius!!! T

Ok, I gave Hannibal about 10 different abilities, so I gave him the military genius as well, and a rating of 6-5-6
I have set the average Roman leader (2 or 3 stars) at 4-1-0 intead of 3-1-1 to reflect the agresive stand they usually took.

Just to add a comment with Military Genius aptitude.
It is a very (maybe too) strong aptitude as we saw it in NCP, battles with Napoleon presence can lead to very unbalanced results because of this trait and French sub-commanders will gain some substantial advantages with it.
The military genius trait is an aptitude container maybe too wide and should be used with great caution.
