Sep 10, 2014 at 10:32 comment added Peteris @Lohoris the OP doesn't mention "keeping it a small party" but rather mentions that they don't want to turn it into a kingdom simulation game. You still can use lots and lots of hired help to support your small party of PCs, as long as you keep it "offscreen". You don't need to roleplay the process of obtaining hirelings and the internal politics if that's not your thing; but if you want to, say, destroy an evil cult holdout, then you have an option to get a pro thief to scout it out before you go inside yourself; or buying the holdout plans (incl secret passages) from the guild that built it.
Sep 10, 2014 at 7:48 comment added o0'. This answer is a bit disappointing considering the question: I am under the impression that he is specifically asking for something that doesn't involve broadening the scope of the campaingn, keeping it "small party, just the PCs".
Sep 10, 2014 at 2:33 comment added Arkhaic You might want to add a note that due to the 'bounded accuracy' of 5e hirelings are much more effective than in previous editions. For example, 24 CR 1/4 skeletons can completely replace a 5e fighter in terms of damage.
