Less players than suggested and hirelings

Hello

Im about to pull the trigger on DCC but i have some questions.

I plan to only play released modules, i dont have the time to make my own.
I bought and read some of them and they are great, but the ones i want to play are all +8 players. My group is 3 players, and they dont really wanna play more than one pc each. They can manage one hireling each.

Are there hireling rules in DCC?

Is it possible to sub pc's with hirelings?

Any other suggestions?

Thank you

Page 310 will help.

I think hirelings/henchmen can sub for PCs. So, 3 player characters, with each running a hireling and then two more hirelings "at the back" brings you up to 8.

I haven't yet run any published modules, so I can't comment on running them with fewer than recommended characters -- but I do think hirelings, henchmen, hangers-on, left-over Zeros, etc. are common enough.
