Well when you think of they have to face, a major power and in the future possibly even a second one, they really just do need overwhelming firepower.
Which since they don't have much to go on personnel-wise, it's really only up to magic solutions and technology solutions. So the gun result was inevitable.
Hell, even before guns, crossbows didn't even seem to be a thing. World is at a pretty low technology level.

But we also know magic is a thing and, under the right conditions, is powerful enough that it can leave behind an unusable, barren wasteland in its wake. Basically a magic nuke.
Seeing as the major power was able to overthrow elves who presumably have more free access to said nukes (and that the granny gathering said they'd be screwed if attacked by the major power) they probably have at least some magic power of their own, if not numerous coping methods.
So it's pretty much a wait and see thing, but the first few encounters will probably be nothing special and full of no-name mooks until they take back the kingdom, which will then ramp up from there.

On a side note, I'm curious why he hasn't tried any magical crafting.
Minecraft has enchantments, and Terraria is much the same. He even has those spirit catalyst gems to mess around with.
Guess his crafting menu has just gave him nothing on it.
