ik i have no say in this but im just going to say how large most armies would be in a classical lotr rp

Name	Strength	Subordinate Forces	Commander Realm, Region[5]	All arms	All Hosts, Armies, Companies	High-king, King, Lord Great Host,[30] Great Army, Great Force	60,000–100,000 +[31]	2+ Hosts, or Host + Army, or + Auxiliaries	High-king, King, High-captain, Herald,[32] Captain[33] Host[34][35]	20,000–50,000+	2+ Armies,[36] or Army + Auxiliaries	King, High-captain, Lord, Captain Army[37]	10,000[38]–25,000[39][40][41]	2+ Great Companies, or numerous Companies	King, Captain,[42] or Lord Great Company[43][44]	1,000–3,000[45][46]	2+ Companies,[47] or numerous Bands	Captain, or Chief[48][49] Company	100–1,000[50]	2+ Bands	Captain, or Chieftain[51] Band	10–200	2+ Troops	Chieftain Armies and Hosts through the three ages of Middle-earth (i got this from armies and hosts of middle earth wiki page)

a legion is around 5000-10000 men

a small kingdom (durins folk, umbar half trolls far harad etc) would probsly have 30-50 legions,

a medium kingdom (harad rohan high elves blue mountains. and forochel) would probaly have 100-160 legions

huge kingdoms (mordor gondor rhun and new arnor)

would probaly have 200-230 legions.

i think this is a appropiate army size,
