Power Armoured Militia- Currently a large number of Avernites have managed to acquire their own suits of power armour, either by personal wealth or as part of a group.

This will both be time consuming and very expensive but the reward is estimated to be over a hundred and twenty million power armoured militiamen - an incredible force. It should be noted that despite their armour this force will not be nearly as effective as your regulars due to the differences in training.
