I love all the new ones. I wish there were more!

Your not getting heroic obesity makes me wonder if there is a nation dependent factor in the HOF categories. It is one of the 4 or 5 common ones for me when I play Bandar Log MA, the nation that I play the most at present.

What nation are you playing?

Re: Hall of Fame Promotions
 

Who are getting the obesity? Size 3 bandar? That'd work with my more supplies -> more obese heroes theory. If it's size 2 gurus/rishis, who GENERATE supplies, the theory is bogus (but thankfully, doesn't kill anyone).

Re: Hall of Fame Promotions
 

My experience does not disprove your theory. It is the size 3 Bandar that are getting the obesity. I do not remember any instances where a mage got obesity. And I almost exclusively use the bandar for leading troops into combat, only using the size 2 commanders as ferry captains. My preferred technique is to outfit the Bandar commanders with bows (actually I do this with all the mundane combat commanders I can, no matter what nation I play).
So I can usually get at least 2, sometimes 3 in the HOF in the early game. I always set HOF at 15 so I can get more in also.

It was a size 2 commander that got the Heroic Stupidty though. He got his experience ferrying reinforcements into battle as I was capturing the provinces surrounding the capital.

I had a Helheim Dis get the obesity thing once.
