[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 6107734, member: 326"] I've been working on and off on something like this and just not got around to finishing it as of yet...sorry. :blush: But the backbone of the idea is simply converting mass units into single stat-blocks (like a swarm). The conversion rate seems to work out at +6 Levels for each x10 multiplier. ie. Single Orc Warrior = Level 3 Soldier Unit of 10 Orc Warriors = Level 9 Soldier (or Level 5 Elite Soldier) Unit of 100 Orc Warriors = Level 15 Soldier (or Level 11 Elite, or Level 6 Solo) Unit of 1000 Orc Warriors = Level 21 Soldier (or Level 17 Elite, or Level 12 Solo) Unit of 10,000 Orc Warriors = Level 27 Soldier (or Level 23 Elite, or Level 18 Solo) So you simply convert the original stat-block into whichever rank is closest to your needs (party level). e.g. For a Level 12 party a Unit of 100 Orcs best converts to the Elite rank (Level 11 in this case). Naturally each UNIT has a few new traits. I already added morale rules in my Vampire Bestiary. I have some other stuff for troop formations. Leader types (including minimum level for commanding certain sized forces). Terrain advantages and so forth. I should really just add it all to the website. My initial goal was to replicate (the battle of) Thermopylae. [/QUOTE]
