I've been planning my playthrough carefully. I was looking at the Prima guide and, in order to get the most allies to show up during the final mission, the following have to be done:
-- A Trail of Hope - do NOT destroy the facility.
-- Hunting the Archon - save the Krogan scouts over the Salarian pathfinder
-- Peebee's loyalty mission - save Kalinda
-- Drack's loyalty mission - either choice regarding Aroane
-- Salarian Ark - arrest Dr. Alden
-- Kadara missions - Sloan will show up as part of the story; but can be replaced by Reyes if you choose him as part of the quest
-- Eos - create military outpost instead of scientific
-- Elaaden's secret water supply - allow Annea to continue her business
-- Voeld - don't kill the AI, but give it to the Angara
Also, not for allies but to optimize the last mission:
-- Know Your Enemy and Dissension in the Ranks - use the kill codes
-- Turian Ark: Lost But Not Forgotten - convince Avictus to be pathfinder
-- Cora's loyalty mission - either will do as pathfinder, but make sure not to disgrace them
Anything I missed? Anything incorrect?

Wow... After completing the game I realized how many allies I missed out on! I still kicked butt with what I had, though!

What is the difference? I saved the salarian pathfinder instead and things didn't seem different.

-- Cora's loyalty mission - either will do as pathfinder, but make sure not to disgrace them What do you mean? I forced Sarissa to admit the truth that she allowed original Asari Pathfinder to die to get some Kett data. But I also spoke up she should remain as Pathfinder. And in the end, she did come to my aid. Is there some other option that disgraces them? |

The Salarian pathfinder will also aid you but she can be replaced. No matter who the Salarian pathfinder is, they will come to assist, so, for a min-max, technically the Krogan scouts route gives you an extra ally. |

Yes, saved by Sarissa's Biotic shield. |

I'm asking if gaining allies like that makes a difference in the final mission other than for asthetics. |

You get allied NPC's fighting alongside you in some sections, which is of great help in harder difficulties as they are immortal and some Kett troops will focus on them instead of at you and your squadmates. |
