No choices at level up

[Granamyr]

I guess I was wondering if I'm supposed to be receiving anything except Leadership on level up because that's all I have gotten thus far? If it's random then apparently I just flipped a coin 16 times and got tails....if I'm to only get attack stats based on gear and the skill tree then I'm rather unlucky in the gear I'm seeing and certainly there are better choices than spending a ton of runes on Heroism (currently lvl 1 for me right now).

I'm playing a "minimal losses" game and can count the number of casualty rounds on one hand and already have the applicable medal at level 3. Still, I'm shocked that my stats are all still in the single digits.
