I'm a little confused at how the Legendary Commander Epic Feat works. It says that it multiplies the amount of followers you have at each level by 10... but with a Leadership score of over 40 (with Epic Leadership), that can be calculated two ways, one more logical, the other closer to the literal interpreationg of the rule.
The first method is to find your first level followers (1000 plus 1 per level of Leadership over 40), then multiply by 10 for Epic Leadership and find additional followers by the standard pattern (1/10 as many 2nd as 1st, 1/2 as many 3rd as 2nd, 1/2 as many 4th as 3rd, and so on, rounding fractions up, except for values less then one). For an example Leadership score of 43 (not coincidentally the leadership score of the character I'm trying to make
), this gives the following followers:
1st 13000
2nd 1300
3rd 650
4th 325
5th 163
6th 82
7th 41
8th 21
9th 11
10th 6
11th 3
12th 2
13th 1
The second method is to calculate followers as per the pattern described above, and THEN apply the x10 for Legendary Commander. For the same leadership score, the followers given are:
1st 13000
2nd 1300
3rd 650
4th 330
5th 170
6th 90
7th 50
8th 30
9th 20
10th 10
The first method is more logical and follows the standard leadership pattern. The second method follows the listed rules more literally. Which is right?
