Turgon's army of 10,000 in the Fifth Battle: Nirnaeth Arnoediad - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I think you've got it, Finwe.

8,000 extra Elves, though? I shouldn't have thought that Turgon's army suffered such losses as that, namely a 4/5 casualty rate. Or anything like that bad. I don't suppose we've got any hints as to the actual numbers (which I suspect not to be that large) that Turgon did lose in the Nirnaeth?
