That's what you have after you've beaten back our forces and marched through the starving regions and overran the level five city walls with 9k CS of militia behind them. Minas Ithil had 12k originally. Hammarsett had 7k originally. That's about 1.5x bigger than what you normally field, which makes sense, since you had 2x gold and diminishing returns kicks in when all of your nobles start fielding 50+ troops.
To be fair, Tara has been fielding 20k CS lately. That's not shabby. They have more nobles now and it shows.
That's more than MI usually brings to the party, but Hammarsett's always been able to manage 8k or so if given a couple weeks without a huge battle. Which we have had. Where the heck is Tara, anyway? Shouldn't they be showing up to rain on our parade right about now?
