In my belief we should make a page listing each factions number of each kind of troop and how skilled they are, yes it will take ridiculous amounts of time but it's a better system for RPs

If we have the list then there won't be any fun in rps, it'll just be: "I attack his stronghold, I win because I'm ranked 12 and he's ranked 18"

But if we have a system of listing troops it makes it exciting and it makes it possible for less powerful faction to win if the player puts enough thought into their tactics. Here is an example of what I think the wiki page should look like:

Mordor

5,000 rank 3 swordsmen

2,000 rank 2 archers

500 rank 7 siege

3,000 rank 3 wargs

etc.

the number is how many of that troop kind there are

the rank is on a scale of 1-15, 1 being around hobbit level and 15 being around Sauron with the ring level

the troop type is just that, swordsman pikemen archer calvary siege etc. Here here!

Here's a rough outline of Atmora and the Dovahzul.

Atmora:

Standing army of professionals(this is assuming that Shade was just using Mordor as an example, and as such this would be a much smaller force than what Mordor had)-

1,000 rank 10 longsword-and-halberd heavy infantry. (Tripraetors)

2,000 rank 9 heavy swordsmen(Praetorians)

500 rank 5 light archers

2,000 rank 7 heavy infantry

10 rank 13 special operatives who work alone, without standardized equipment

The forces which only exist in times of war-

6,000 rank 3 spear/shortsword medium infantry, however as a group in formation thy are a 6.
