Message: <blockquote data-quote="Spatula" data-source="post: 4236977" data-attributes="member: 2198">This idea that goblins are "assumed" to not have support and zombies are is 100% not supported by anything.  Kobold minions are about as strong as the goblins, and there is a kobold booster (the wyrmpriest).  Furthermore, the zombie minions used in KotS aren't used with any sort of leader-type that makes them more effective.  So if the designers did build in those assumptions when making different minions, they then proceeded to ignore them when designing encounters for the 1st adventure.Someone asked for the skeleton minion stats:Decrepit Skeleton, lvl 1 minion (25 xp)Init +3; Percep +2 darkvsionAC 15, fort 13, refl 14, will 13immune disease, poisonspeed 6longsword +6, 4 dmgshortbow range 15/30 +6, 4 dmgThe skeleton is faster, has a better AC, has the same attack bonus & does the same damage, and has a ranged attack.  And has darkvision and the same immunities as the zombie... but is 2 levels lower than the zombie rotter.</blockquote>
