	Each general has an Arete of War, which is equal to the number of dice rolled for his arete. These maybe rolled once for each of the three wings of the army (left, right and centre). When applying a sphere to a set of units, the difficulty is (10 minus relevant stat), this means that different amounts of success, than thus different levels of bonus will be applied across different units in the army. For global effects, the difficulty is usually 6, with 10s counting as two successes.		Each general has an Arete of War, which is equal to the number of dice rolled for his arete.

For global effects, the difficulty is usually 6, with 10s counting as two successes.

			There are two parts to an Arete of war roll: first specify what you want to do mechanially (so for instance "Use Command 3 to bring up my spears in front of my bows), then how you do it "My spears and bows have trained so that the bows open ranks and the spears charge through and form on a flag signal". Both are necessary for an effect to happen.
