[@Flamelord] I think that miscommunication was the primary problem. You wanted to be a commander, and everyone else was treating minions as attacks at best, nothing at worst. However, if you were personally leading a squad, that would be a compromise between your vision of a commander, and the otherwise hero-centric design of the thread.

However, if switching charries is what you wanna do, best of luck!

The problem is that while she could lead around some NPCs, it wouldn't really benefit the Machina that much. With a cap on the amount of actions one can take in a post, controlling a squad of NPCs basically halves the amount of things Endian can do in a single post for negligible benefit, since NPCs are still mooks to be wiped out with ease.
