After killing 400 minions over 15 levels of advancment they haven't noticed that some orcs can be killed with a well throw pat of butter and others can nap under a pile driver without risk? They haven't noticed that as they learned to swing harder they got tougher, but that somehow these orcs broke the advancement rules that have applied to every person or monster (since a named monster by definition is not a mook) they have ever spoken too? If the minion rules are intended to be cinematic backdrop to allow the GM to show vast armies fighting and dieing in the background, then they don't need rules in the first place. Set dressing is set dressing, whether it's a dramatic sunset over an ancient ziggurat or a horde of screaming orcs that get killed by the sun gleaming off Sir Loin O'beefs flawless grin.If they are intended to be beings that actually exist in the same physical reality as the PCs then how can the PCs fail to notice that 4 out of 5 monsters are made out of angry soap bubbles and every 5th monster has actual meat on his bones?This, by the way, is NOT a simulation issue. It's an immersion issue.</blockquote>
