One of my players (who is taking the Yerasol Veteran theme), just sent me this email:
Ordinarily I assume this would be accounted for by the PCs receiving less xp for the encounter (a la mounts), but I'm not planning on awarding xp; just levelling the PCs as they reach the appropriate adventure.
If the answer is "DM prerogative", I'm fine with that. And yes, I realise this will really only be relevant for the first 5 levels or so. After that, those level 2 soldiers are more set dressing than anything else.
Is there anything to stop my players from going into every "slow" encounter (ie. ones where there's no time pressure to start the encounter quickly) backed up by 4 (or 12!) members of Risur's military?"I'd say it would be an idea to have some Level 2 Soldiers ready as we will be (with a [Hard DC] Diplomacy roll) able to call in 12 lvl 2 Soldiers within a few hrs and I'm a big fan of backup"
