So, for instance, you're trying to haul a 200-pound comrade off the battlefield. You alone would have to bear all 200 pounds; an extra person would reduce the weight to 150; a third would reduce it to 110, etc. This means that the second person could help ONLY if he can carry 150 pounds (not 200); likewise, a third could help ONLY if he could carry 110. This is what I use for my variant encumbrance system regarding containers (check down a few threads - I posted it last week, though I didn't post that part of it).</blockquote>
