Could someone add this on wiki? On any difficulty level newly recruted soldiers appear to be using the Easy settings table (probably a bug), so if you replace BalanceMods_Easy=(eType=eChar_Soldier, iDamage=0, iCritHit=0,iAim=0,iDefense=0,iHP=+1, iMobility=0,iWill=0) with BalanceMods_Easy=(eType=eChar_Soldier, iDamage=0, iCritHit=0,iAim=0,iDefense=0,iHP=-1, iMobility=0,iWill=0) you will hire rookies on Classic with the same HP as the ones you are given at the beginning.
