Looting past the peasant militia

What it adds to the game is ensure that a region can not be looted to total destruction in one or two turns just because you managed to show up with 50 people.

It used to be that *any* peasant mob prevented any looting at all. At least now you've got a chance.

No. That is not true. Before, everyone could attempt to loot past the peasant militia, and some would be successful.

You young whippersnapper. Back when *I* started playing, a single peasant with a pitchfork could hold off an entire army of battle-hardened soldiers. That was back when peasant were *tough*. Not like the sissy peasants they have now who can be intimidated by mere 10:1 odds against them.

Now get off my lawn!
