Stats are in adventure 2.Level 8 folks, as minions, would be slightly less powerful than a standard level 1 person, XP-value-wise. But the Allied Guys are designed more as set dressing and speed-bumps than as full on companions. They go down after one hit, grimacing in pain and wishing they were as brave as those guys from the RHC, but even though they're not dying they just can't bring themselves to keep fighting through their injuries. It takes 'em a little while (short rest) to gather their strength.But sure, a level 8 minion, representing a well-trained RHC agent who nevertheless doesn't have as much grit as a full PC, would work for me. Give him a bit of personality, though. The Allied Officers and Soldiers are more cannon fodder.</blockquote>
