I would modify them from the max value 3 to 1.

I think the randomly awarded heroes are hardcoded, so I guess it cannot be changed. Random heroes for attributes like initiative, move, range, spotting are max. +1, attack en defense are still from +1 to +3.

I'm also one of those dreamers that hope to edit the hero bonuses one day. Nah, it's not possible yet.
Yeah, +3 to attack/defense bonuses are indeed quite a boost, turning a PzIV almost into a Tiger. I'm in particular no fan of spotting, move and range bonuses, because of even more drastically changes to balanced, basic features, like slow heavy infantry or short-firing powerful infantry guns. I wouldn't mind so much with only +1 attack/defense either, although Initative+1 would be much better than any other +1 bonus.

The only thing what you can control at least is the speed how fast you can obtain heroes in gamerules.pzdat:
Hero1KillsMin 50
Hero1KillsMax 100
Hero2KillsMin 101
Hero2KillsMax 200
Hero3KillsMin 201
Hero3KillsMax 500

I've already tested once with higher kill demands, but in the end it hurts that fresh(ly replaced) units got a hard time later to survive against experienced enemy units without a quick hero.

Thanks the info guys!
Well it sad because I feel in some ways that the +3 traits are too high - at least on that situations when a unit gets more times from the same: for example +6 Defense or even more... I know PC is a game but still for me it is too much too gamey.
Hmm, maybe it would be making optional editable in the next patch... :)
