In about one month my game group and I will start the PF adventure path "Way of the wicked" I will be the GM and after reading all books one question remains.
I can't make head or tails of the cohort system.
The book uses different words like Cohort, minions, allies all the time. It suggests that different NPC's can become Cohorts. that seems all pretty straight forward but what I can't figure out is how to handle things.
The book suggests making NPC's cohorts while (following the -2 lvl on cohort rule) they can't be, because they are to high level. How do I level the cohorts, cause some only have a CR rating? And how to handle all the extra characters. The book itself suggests that they can have one cohort of higher lvl but it gives tons of options.
And what about the NPC's that don't make it to cohort? Do they become minions? Or do I treat them as allies and just play them myself as GM?
Is there anyone out there who have played this adventure path and give me some advice?
And as a bonus question, is there anyone out there with a player map of the horn of Abaddon?
