Um, what do those numbers have to do with anything?
HeroQuest isn't a military simulator. It's a literature simulator if it's any kind of simulation. So think about the sorts of situations you'd be dealing with. And don't worry about "realistic" results, worry about interesting results.
Both of those units might actually have the same combat value. In a heads-up fight, they would each have the same chance of winning.
The Elite unit might have more secondary abilities -- heck, you could almost have 20 abilities, one contributed by each member.
But tell me which is the players, and I can make it fun for them.
