500k scouts (0.5-1 day)
100k pike (few hours)
140k sword (few hours
700k arch (1.75-2 days)
Total: ~4-5 days.

100k pults: exactly 4 days.

Of course this is based on my train time but it is all proportional. That is why I call it more or less a fair trade.
1.8mil warriors = 6888 paults in build time
500k scouts = 8126 paults in build time
100k pike = 2485 paults in build time
140k swords = 5219 paults in build time
700000 archers = 40816 paults in build time

Total = 63534 paults in build time.

He may not have had a crushing defeat but in no way was that battle a fair trade.
