This may well be conjecture, but I'm still a bit surprised that out of the four clockwork soldiers sent to Dunwall, the army of Overseers only managed to destroy one of them. Pistols and grenades are very effective against them and the Overseers have access to both.

Sure, they had to face the corrupt City Watch and Delilah's forces at the same time, but the City Watch doesn't seem as well equipped or disciplined as the Abbey. Plus the Ancient Music would've nullified the Witch's magic and (Probably?) harmed the Gravehounds and Blood Briars. It seems that they mostly lost because Delilah stepped in and petrified the last of them when they breached the gates.
