I mean that compared to the 10,000 Uruks at Helm's Deep, I am not at all convinced that 200,000 orcs were present at the Pelennor fields. When you compare the two armies, Sauron's army was bigger, but only by about 3 times, but certainly not 20 times as big. Though that is only what I perceived in the film, not the book.
