Anyone know the difference in leadership between Skald and Viking? Is it a huge amount?

Viking starts with 200 and Skald start with 250. Soothsayer 150. Viking makes lvl x 1.5 leadership and Skald lvl x 2, Soothsayer makes lvl x 1 ) So at lvl 30 for example, Viking does 450 while Skald 600 and Soothsayer 300. I hope this helps.

I like Skald more then Viking, mostly because I like to get Learning 3 and Scouting 3 fast. With higher leadership then Viking, I think Skald does overall more damage with his units anyways. The downside is that it takes much longer to get the good stuff from the Might Tree (bloodlust)
