How large should armies get?

The only exception may be Imladris, since I saw their batallions too small in 3.81, though I don't know their actual/planned size, so maybe if you can make Imladris' batallions a bit larger would be glad^^

I believe they did that because of the lore. There aren't many Imladris Elves left in Middle-Earth.

I don't have any problem with the largeness of the armies as well; it's quite fine for me  :)

Exactly  :)
The remaining Noldor of Middle Earth were very few in the late Third Age.
Their number had constantly been reducing since the end of the War of the Last Alliance and the Second Age; many of them were also heading to the Grey Havens to leave the World forever.

The number of the Imladris' units is thus an unique and characteristic trait of this faction, and, most importantly, lore accurate.
Rivendell mainly focuses on Quality and on the unmatchable Experience of its soldiers (some of them might even be Veterans of the Elder Days)  ;)
Changing or replacing an element like this would be like, I think, changing the free regular Orcs of Mordor.

Damn, you are good on argumentation, Walk. I did not like the idea of small batallions for Imladris until now, because I always thought it was strange, did not look cool and also made its units desproporcionaly strong compared to other factions troops. But I got your point. Makes all the sense and fits very well, when analysing it from this perspective.  :)

They may just need adjustements concerning flank while fighting, as the batallions are very small. But this is not the topic of this thread.  :D

I'm very glad to see that you changed idea about this matter  :P
This trait, and all the reasons behind it, is exactly one of the things that I like the most about Rivendell  ;)

Sir_Stig:
I would say maybe the units per battalion could be made a little smaller (I find weak units like orcs are especially difficult to utilize effectively atm due to 3/4 of the battalion just standing around watching. I would say that we should wait till imladris at least is released, as the would be among the most affected by any changes in battalion size, but honestly I'm pretty okay with it as it is.
