[QUOTE="Burne, post: 906092, member: 3450"] Pg 2. Leadership Smack writer. While I can't justify rules-wise that you can take leadership more than once, the topic has come up on the boards more than once, (and perhaps in a semi-offical sage ruling) that "sure, why the heck not!". As for how I generated the levels, cohorts earn a 1/2 share of any XP earned, so if a 4 person party with 1 cohort earns 4500 Xp, each party member gets 1000xp, and the cohort earns 500xp. I just sat down and figured out how much xp each cohort would recieve as its leader gained levels. I did this one level at a time as I was handling so many Cohorts at once, but for a single cohort. Cohort Starting Lvl's base XP + (PC's current Xp total - PC's Xp total when cohort was gained )/2. Will give you the correct answer. That is why early cohortsfall behind, and new cohorts are better. New cohort's come in at a level determined by your leadership score, old ones don't. As I side note, if you actually made the leadership smack guy at the top end you and your cohorts would be consuming a 5.5 share of the Xp earned. That means more that twice as much XP must be earned to generate that same person Xp split. Example, 4 person party plus 9 cohorts earns 9500 xp, that number is divided by 9.5 with each PC receiving 1000cp and each cohort receiving 500Xp. [/QUOTE]
