Right, 16/20/24 are base on small sizes (i.e. listed numbers in the EDU). Normal is what I am playing atm, in which case you multiply the EDU size numbers by 1.25. So, that means bodyguard would be base 20, or 25 for princes and 30 for faction leaders. Again, those are modified somehow by personal security - I've had a general rolling around w/ about 40 the one time. IIRC he had been facing milanese assassins, and as a result had become very paranoid, and a bit insane too. Who cares though? He had an awesome cavalry squad.
