The Stars Are Right - Why play minions?

So far, I have only played this two player, but the game seems to turn into a race to see who can get to ten points first. Since minions are worth zero points, playing them almost always seems like a losing move. Their abilities aren't really worth the loss of a point-earning turn (marginally so with the ghoul and ghast).

We've been playing with a house rule that you can play a minion in addition to another creature (assuming, of course, that the stars are right for both summonings). That helps a little.

Any thoughts?
