I don't think that I could ever bring myself to even form a halfway definite opinion on this question. It's just too hard of a question, I think. I mean, yeah, the Rohirrim had horses and were in quite a great number compared to the forces at Osgigliath. However, it seems that Gondor's soldiers were more of a regular standing army, while the Riders of the Mark were in many cases just reserve men. Plus, the armor of the Gondorians seems better in most cases (except maybe for mobility). As far as the heart that was put into the fight, I think that both forces measured up failry equally. Like I said, I don't think I could ever formulate a definite opinion on this one.<p>[ 10:30 PM December 29, 2003: Message edited by: Scott ]
