Description

Conscripted from wealthier cities, these urban militias are given some light training, and often include in their ranks some members of the local city watch; and further they are often better equipped than rural peasants as well. As a result, they are better able to stand up in a fight, though they are not truly the equals of professional soldiers.

Variant Urban Militias

Worse Armor: replace chain shirt with padded armor, decrease AC by 2
