Detailed Information
With the update to Stellaris 3.8 Gemini, the developers introduced a soft cap on leaders. Once you exceed the cap you incur an increasing penalty on leader upkeep given by this equation:
Leader upkeep = (base leader upkeep) * ((leaders hired) / (leader capacity) – 1)
By using this mod or any of its alternate versions you increase the base leader capacity and the soft cap. Additionally with a larger base leader capacity the penalty for exceeding the soft cap is decreased per leader.
For example, if you have 12 leaders with a leader capacity of 6 you incur a 100% upkeep penalty but if your leader capacity is 9 you incur a 33% upkeep penalty.
FAQ
Q: Is the number static, or will it raise when I get +1 leaders?
A: This mod adjusts the base leader capacity so if you take anything that increases capacity, it will increase.
Q: Can I run add/remove this mod from an existing save?
A: Yes, but doing so could effect you leader upkeep so keep that in mind.
