If combat carl is inexperienced, he'll ask for the advice of the adventurers, and execute that in a panicky way. Most likely he'll try to execute multiple plans at once, to the detriment of all. He may also send militiamen with the PCs.If he's grizzled, he'll probably prepare the town for invasion, whistling up not only the militia, but every able bodied man in a calm and reasonable manner, and no way in hell are the PCs getting men: militiamen are not spec-ops, and the best way to defend a town isn't to go running off into the wilderness in the hope of single-handedly killing a goblin horde.</blockquote>
