Militia Vs Monsters (Militia) Materials: Monster costumes Set-up: Choose and garb the Monsters, commensurate with the power of the Populace. Remember the players are Militia! No creatures that are only damaged by magic or fire, unless some provision is made for it. Object: Fierce Monsters have been seen roaming the countryside and causing havoc and destruction. The local Lord calls out the Militia to send the beasts back where they belong. The battle is fairly straightforward and ends when one team or another is shattered or when some other larger Quest goal is accomplished. Options: 1. Have the Monsters team-up against the Militia. (Best for weak Monsters like Goblins) 2. Have the Monsters set up as separate encounters which must be defeated individually. (Best for tough Monsters) 3. Mix different types of Monster together. This is usually more effective by teaming less powerful creatures with more threatening ones. For example, several cave bears to protect a Hill Giant, or a pack of wolves guarding a Vampire.
