Does the rule of ten (WH2 p 182) apply to minions? In other words, a band of 5 Minions with a Threat Rating of 3 would receive 2 free successes on their attack? (5x3=15-10=5/2=2.5 round down to +2 successes).

I figure it does, but I want to be sure.

It is not half of the excess, it is "for every two."

But Minions are not subject to it, I see how the text implies it but does not come right out and say it, so I will take care of it in an FAQ once we have the book out.

Hmmm...

That's too bad. It would have really given a big band of elite minions some teeth.

Besides, how long do they really get that bonus? One round? If they're lucky? Then again, the way Roll20 works, I'm not sure I can even apply the Rule of Ten to a macro.
