Leadership vs. Vassal question

Post by I B Six U B Nine » Wed Jul 30, 2003 6:34 am

I pulled this from the Policy and Code of Conduct for the Food Chain and Order of Hyssop.

"Basic Requirements
All chain members must have Leadership trained OR have at least 11 DIRECT vassals. "

Is this still a requirement? If so, is it 11 direct vassals not including your key vassal or is it including?
I love this game.

Each vassal adds 7.5% to your leadership. Since you just need to have 163 effective leadership to pass up the 93.75%, some people have high enough buffed untrained leadership that they don't really need a full 12 vassals (11 + 1 chain vassal) to max it out. For example, if you can buff your leadership to 100, you really only need about 9 direct vassals (100 x (1 + (.075 x 9)) = 167.5 effective leadership).

But I suppose it's a call for the chain managers to make about whether 11 or 10 or 9 total is ok, or if it must be 12.

key vassal

Post by acaddict » Wed Jul 30, 2003 7:38 am

The thing is, yu get a bonus for having 12 vassals. The requirement is 11 because yu have to have room for a chain vassal. Leadership maxes out, so ya really only need 12 (with a chain vassal) to help your situation if your not trained in leadership.

Maybe someone can elaborate better but, if leadership is not trained, yu really need to get that 12th vassal bonus to pass up the appropriate %. This was prolly a subject brought up many times before we became members of this clan IB. The managers might be thinking this is just common knowledge and haven't posted a "why" in a while.

I bet we get a response from Oof..........plz make it less than 100 words :? dude!!

The information is copied from the Friendly Folks in the Casual Chain forum. :)

The Self and Leadership values are buffed values. Given the self and it's buffed leadership values, the number of vassals in the third column results in the effective leadership found in the fourth column. Their Casual Chain Policy page has the information in a nice looking table but I couldn't figure out how to put the table in here.

Self Leader Vassals Leadership
316........115.........5.....164
296-316..107-114..6.....165
268-296..102-107..7.....163
248-268...98-102...8.....163
232-248...93-98.....9.....164
212-232...90-93....10.....163
10-200.......0-90....11.....164

Oof, the Code tag and lots of time to geting to show up like it does here http://www.lastdynasty.net/board/viewtopic.php?t=3511

The code Tag will allow you to use spaces, how ever they are not a set width unless you use a mono-spaced font like Courier which most that we use are not.

Thanks Kerosene. ;) I never even noticed the Code tag above. I'll have to play around with it some now and see if I can get it to work for me.

Do I just put a starting and ending Code tag and put whatever HTML I want between them, or is there more to it than that? Just a curiousity type of question. Please don't go to any trouble to provide an answer, as I can probably just not be lazy and find the answer myself. Now, at the same time, if it is quick for you, or if you have a good link to who to write tables and the like to these pages, I wouldn't turn you down. :)

Thanks guys for the help. That helps to explain it. I guess I have some vassals to transfer to another char. Leader 115 Loyalty 315 buffed and I've been sitting here with 12 vassals, lol.
I love this game.

Aye, but that's the easy way Flanker. ;) Sometimes, when I was bow, I wouldn't even use a bow. Just run up and start stabbing them with an arrow in my hand! Well, maybe not. :P
