How does one compare and calculate?

[Erkilmarl]

I started a new paladin game where I take leadership always when it is offered. A normal game becomes much easier that way (+ 3000 in leadership is surely much better than + 4 in intelligence, for instance).
Say, leadership 950 seems to be much better choice than attack +1. But how should I calculate? With the increased leadership I can buy 5 more Evil Beholders and get 5 x 30 attack compared to the increase of one to the attack of 60 Beholders? Or does this really matter? Or is it the increase of damage that matters?

The way I understand it is that adding more units doesn't increase your attack, but does increase your damage.

However, increasing your attack does increase your damage, based on the defense of the enemy you are attacking. Not sure what the formula is for increased damage based on attack, though.

I'll bet if you search around here, you'll find one.

Good find. I remember reading that thread before. It's not very clear, but still helpful.
