Generally what I do is figure out what the average income of the
realm is and then decide how much of that is used to maitain the army
depending on the situation. 1/3 is reasonable for someone that is peaceful
and surrounded by friendly countries, such as Ilien, while warlike nations
use anything from 2/3 to 3/4. After that I pick out the units whose
maintenence costs add up to those being spent.
