that is exactly the problem storm, you won't be able to come up with a number or any reward that will matter. to little and it isn't worth it, to much and there won't be teams.

Leaders usually do their own missions. At least I do. If someone asks me if they can do their mission, I'll put their mission up, but generally people join a team assuming I'll make the choice, and I choose my missions.

I get mission completion XP, I get arc completion XP, I get Reward Merits, I get Mentor badges, and I get the XP bonus of being in a team. In the case of the first three, I can get them solo, in the case of the last one everyone gets the bonus and the Mentor badges have no tangible effect. That's irrelevant. All these things add up when I'm on the team.

Some people don't want to lead teams. They like being part of teams, but they feel that leading a team is too much responsibility or too much effort and they just don't want to. They'll join teams if there are any, but generally they don't mind soloing until something comes up. Then there's people that really like teaming, so for that maximum teaming experience, they'll form their own. They'll join a team if one shows up, but if there's none, well, they know how to make one.

Then there's also people that want to team and absolutely refuse to solo but they feel that making a team is too much work but frankly, if they decide to be absolutely at the mercy of everyone else, then they're out of luck.

Ultimately, I doubt this will do much good either way. This sound like something that's there to benefit that last group, the peole who want to team no matter what but don't form their own teams. Leading teams in CoH is already such an easy business that I doubt any form of bribery can change that. If asking people to join your team and then set a mission is too much for you, well, the only thing that'll change is that people will ask for the star on TFs. Everything else will remain the same except leaders will just outlevel the rest.

Yeah, if they only choose missions of their own, instead of spreading the missions around between the various members of the team.

That said, being the mission leader does give one closer to the Advisor badges And now when you can SK the whole team, even faster!
