Alright, this is something that has bugged me since 1.0. There are a ton of ancillaries in-game that give +1 attack or +1 defense. Mostly, these are weapons or pieces of armor. I'd assume that the intent of such bonuses it to add to the attack power or defense skill of the general's bodyguard. This is not what happens. +1 Attack in the desc_ancilliaries file translates to +1 Command when Attacking, as is the case for +1 Defense. Pardon me if this was intended, but I'm assuming that this is some sort of error in communication seeing as the bulk of the original team was either German or Russian. It's just something that doesn't make sense to me.
