That will likely be extremely ugly.  At least in DSII terms, and
uglier in DS3 terms.  Militias are fine for partisan/guerilla warfare,
which DSII (or any other essentially tactical game) cannot adequately
simulate.  They tend not to do well against real opposition
(well-trained, well-led, well-equipped).

At best, they keep the invaders from getting any advantage from their
'conquest' before a relief force shows up.
