Yanafal's magics are for inclusion; he can forge different military traditions into one fighting force (Yes he has magic for personal combat but so do all the war gods).
A file-leader or hundred-leader (lieutenant) does not need these magics as his unit is always homogeneous. There is no reason for him to waste the time (and money) to worship a god that gives him powers he cannot use.
Most Yanafali officers are general grade. They are brigade leaders and higher. They are assigned tasks and forces that require their skills. Now, there are some Lunar units that are Yanafali and the junior officers worship him for his officering skills but most people under general rank are worshiping Yanafal for his combat magic.
