He was at the minimum - 2XP.
The first time where you get more non-Leadership promotions is when you get +24XP to get to 26XP, for 4 non-Leadership promotions. A "normal" unit is at 14/17 and only has 3 promotions.
This is why leadership sucks.
That's a pessimistic way to look at it. You can also say that you are only ever behind in promotions at two instances: 3xp (5 for Leadership unit) and 5xp (8 for Leader). You're at least equal in promotions earned after that, so why is it so awful if you get early?

Well, mackoti is re-roading where I've pillaged on the island, and he's upgraded a couple knights Cuirs. So much for hoping he just wanted to hold in place.
On the plus side, Old Tourist is drafting

Clearly it's time to buff Leadership in those mods of yours! I would just make it double GG points as well...

My bad. I thought it was just to elect a new pope, not the victory condition.

I suppose that's one way to beat Mackoti.
