[QUOTE="Khisanth the Ancient, post: 6885708, member: 11368"] Well... that depends. A mundane force of footsoldiers can be opposed by another mundane force of footsoldiers, and if you're defending a city, the defender generally has a significant advantage. But some demons and undead are really hard to stop with just mundane forces. On the low-CR end, barlgura and quasits can become invisible, shadow demons can pass through walls and are stealthy, wraiths can go through walls and animate their victims as spectres And high-CR demons can teleport, and mummy lords and liches are totally immune to mundane weapons! Sure, but it's probably a [I]lot[/I] easier to find enough troops to defend your city against a 2000-man army than to find a party of adventurers high enough level to deal with a nalfeshnee, marilith, balor, mummy lord, or lich. 13th+ level people just aren't that common.
