Re: Any Man Advice
The issue is - do you want the slaves to live? Also, do you want to cast any other spells out of your communion? (answer: yes, you absolutely do, master enslave is great but not THAT great.)
8 Slaves -> Slaves are S4, Fatigue = 800 * 5 / 8 = 500, so instead death.
16 Slaves -> Slaves are S5, Fatigue = 800 * 4 / 16 = 200, so inatant death.
Okay, the actual fatigue the units can survive is:
200 + 9 (hit points) - 25 (for communion slave) - 20 (encumberance * 4 personal cost for master enslave) = 166.
20 Slaves -> 800 * 4 / 20 = 160.
So you can get one off if you have 20 slaves. BUT you can't cast anything else through the communion! This is very bad.
32 Slaves -> Slaves are S6, Fatigue = 800 * 2 / 32 = 50.
So, if you have 32 slaves, you can have two communion masters casting it AT THE SAME TIME. Now we're cooking with gas.
