[QUOTE="Infiniti2000, post: 3234402, member: 31734"] The problem with that is that LA (part of ECL) does not rightly account for CR. What you're advocating by using ECL instead of character level is that it's okay to have a cohort and even followers that are more powerful than you. Shouldn't it be the other way around? Then again, I personally have a lot of issues with the ECL system, so don't expect me to defend this stance much more than pointing it out. :) So, basically, your 6th-level azer fighter would get his ass kicked by his own 10th-level human fighter cohort. :lol: Even more so, I hate Leadership as a feat. I allow the PC's IMC to acquire cohorts, followers, and whatnot through roleplaying and actions. [/QUOTE]
