Number of counters on IT = How much strengh is added on ice per counter (1 counter, 2 counters, ...)
2 = 2,2.
3 = 3, 4, 3.
4 = 4, 6, 6, 4.
5 = 5, 8, 9, 8, 5.
6 = 6, 10, 12, 12, 10, 6.
7 = 7, 12, 15, 16, 15, 12, 7.
8 = 8, 14, 18, 20, 20, 18, 14, 8.
9 = 9, 16, 21, 24, 25, 24, 21, 16, 9.
10 = 10, 18, 24, 28, 30, 30, 28, 24, 18, 10.
11 = 11, 20, 27, 32, 35, 36, 35, 32, 27, 20, 11.
12 = 12, 22, 30, 36, 40, 42, 42, 40, 36, 30, 22, 12.
Jesus Christ, this card is complicated. This math is probably the simplest part. But until I saw 3 = 3, 4, 3 instead of 3 = 3, 5, 6, I would never have guessed how convoluted they intended it to be.

Interestingly, the benefit that this card gives does not always increase with an increasing number of spent power tokens (see @gumonshoe 's post above, strength added = n(X+1). Instead it has a "Maximum usefulness" after which the strength you get actually decreases! "What's the limit on how much I should spend?" you ask. The answer is half the number of power counters (rounded up if their's an odd number).
