[QUOTE="Endovior, post: 2342144, member: 33321"] 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? [/QUOTE]
