[@Zelosse] There definitely could be. Especially in the farther cities that aren't close enough to Rothenburg to get much help.

You can also create your own peasant militia in Rothenburg, I'm fine with that too, since the guards aren't doing the best job keeping monster attacks from happening. It would be a bit of a sore spot for the Royal Guards and probably some of the hunters since it's kind of a slap in the face that they aren't doing a good enough job taking care of things.
