In 1300, at the Battle of Cuan, the Crusader Army is said to have amounted to 13,000 infantrymen of different descriptions and 1,250 knights with a lot of smaller forces, estimated to be around a total of 20,000 soldiers scattered around the conquered territories to keep the peace and a further 5,000 soldiers engaged in the Siege of Bodmin.
In 1322, the Crusaders managed to pull together a force of 7,500 men and knights to try and break past Creetown, which had recently been taken back in a surprising attack.
