Maximum Number of Followers

[notquitethere]

I guess everyone has their quirks. Mine is that I love having as many active party members as humanly possible. The [url="http://danglercomic.com/arcanum.jpg"]last time[/url] I played through Arcanum, I went through the stone circle with eleven followers, including two summons and an animal possession. If I'd had more spell slots, that could have been 13 followers, though only 8 would be permanent and one of those is the dog.

In case you can't make out in the[url="http://www.danglercomic.com/arcanum.jpg"]picture[/url], my party consisted of:
Magnus
Perriman Smythe
Dog
Raven
Z'an Al'urin (yeah, I managed to persuade them both to work together...)
Franklin Payne
Weldo Rubin
Jormund

My question is: have you had a bigger party? And is there any other RPG that you know of which would allow you to have more party members active?

Don't forget about Medical Arachnid.

If you really like having a lot of party members, you should check out Ogre Battle 64.
