i dont think only characters are only needed to defeat the 12 shields,first the enemy is an empire,as we know the empire consist of many personel and,it's case there are 750 guilds who are combined, i think the all guild in ishgar should join them cause i believe that the personel lower than 12 are still stronger and powerful.
