Clearly, the effectiveness of traits at the Theater and Army Group level are severely diminished. If a Division commander, Corps commander, Army commander, Army group commander and Theater commander all have the Offensive Doctrine trait, it gives the division a combat modifier of 10% + 5% + 2.5% + 1.25% + 0.625% = 19.375%, when attacking. Meanwhile, while the Army bonus is lower, it could be passed onto 25 divisions. While this may seem to be the best scenario, this effect is only applied to a limited number of divisions. This means that, for example, at the divisional level the trait modifier is granted 100% to all brigades in that division.
