I think the ability to order guards should be changed from one's charisma level to one's level. Charisma is already factored in when considering lag and that's fine. What I can't see is a guard not listening to the leader of their faction just because he's not charismatic. |

It's based on level and charisma already. You're also not technically the leader of a tribunal, but instead a steward of such. If Queen Serena walked up to some guy that Captain Obvious can't order, that guy'd listen to Serena. Leadership should require the ability to communicate and interact with others effectively, both mechanically (as it is now) and RP-wise. |

I was using a leader as an example but yes, if you have leadership you should be able to eventually control every law NPC as you progress to level 50. |

Again, CHA is not just a number. It's meant to literally be a representation of how persuasive/attractive you can make your commands and arguments. |

It's military. Rank is all that matters not if you're a likable guy and once you have leadership you have rank imo. Once you reach 50 all should be open to you regardless of your Cha. Cha penalties will follow with lag times. |

I wouldn't be opposed to this idea, but I doubt they would go for it. If you want to order tribunal guards with minimal charisma, try guardians or hand. |

You stated yours to which I disagree. |

Picture the guy who's like 'Hey, come with me on a suicide mission', vs the William Wallace 'They may take our lives, but they'll never take... our freedom' etc, that's how I picture it. One is... well... a heck of a lot more likely to get people to get behind you and line up to let you possibly end their lives. |
