Except advancing to grandmastery actually increases your APR by one. For example;

Anomen has ** in Warhammers, and being a level 7 fighter grants him an additional 1/2 attack per round, so he attacks twice per round when using a warhammer. Advancing him to gransmastery with warhammers provides an *additional* attack per round, so he now attacks 3 times per round.

Another example;
character X is a level 13 fighter dual wielding 2 long swords. He has ** in long swords.
X therefore attacks with the primary weapon at 5/2, and gets a bonus attack from the off hand increasing his attacks to 7 every 2 rounds (7/2). If he now advances to the point of grandmastery, he gains an additional attack per round so he will attack 9/2. Wearing the gauntlets of extra. spec. increases the attacks to 5 per round.

It's a little misleading but grandmastery actually accounts for one and a half attacks rather than one.
