2 - the idea of sending scouts to other populated areas looking for recruits without getting your guys killed in the process.
For the second one, or for any mission into settled, populated areas, I wonder if female characters might be best suited for infiltrating, disguised as civilians. This, of course, is particularly hazardous, as it depends on the attitudes of whoever is guarding the place, and the attitudes of the civilians you are trying to contact. OTOH, it is at least less obvious than sending in uniformed & armed males. Un-uniformed males of military age are guaranteed to arouse suspicion, females less so.
