ICanDream Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 I'm rereading WoR and something struck me: I have no idea on the army sizes. I'd guess around 20,000 but I have no idea. Anything I missed or any words of Brandon?
Pagerunner he/him Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 Quote "Ten Thousand," Aladar said with a grunt. "We can take ten thousand. Even with them having the terrain advantage, even if we have to assault rather than defend, we should handle that many with ease. We have over thirty thousand." Dalinar's army is at six thousand, after heavy recruitment (he took half of them on the mission where Kaladin and Shallan fell down into the chasm). Dalinar lost six thousand at the Tower, so he was probably around eleven thousand beforehand. Aladar had one of the largest armies, but not larger than Sadeas or Dalinar, so he's probably running ten thousand. And then Roion and Sebarial are fielding around seven thousand apiece, I'd guess leaning towards Roion since Sebarial's mercenary forces would be more compact.
