Desperate times breeds desperate measures.
So the PCs begin to farm the settlements, setting up blockades keeping the inhabitants at a certain power level. Seems like the perfect time for the settlement to call in the calvary. Wether its a goblin settlement that is being hounded calling in help from another goblin settlement that seemed to have gone unnoticed, or it could be a natural (or unnatural) alliance is formed with another race settlement.
In the case of kingdoms sending out settlers to expand the territory, should one of those settlements be hounded by guilds then the entire forces of the homeland are available to break up any camping.
