: How many people served in Legion???
: I think more than 15 thousand of men.
: As we know in the level "The Wall" says:(The
: scouts told us that Alric and nearly three thousand
: men from the Legion have come from Muirthemne to face
: Soulblighter.)
: So if 3 thousand come to face SB, in beginning of Myth II
: in the Legion may serve about 15-20 thousand.
A Legion is a Roman unit of soldiers. It tends to consist of about 5,000 soldiers, give or take a thousand, depending upon the time period and how the general wished to organize the army at any one particular time. In most large and important battles, multiple Legions would be used together.
In Myth, we can assume that its Legions are similar to Roman Legions. There is mention of a "Seventh Legion." This does not mean that there were at least seven Legions, however. The #s that Legions were assigned in Rome had nothing to do with time of original formation, but instead had to do with their position in the world; this system still hasn't been completely figured out today, I believe, but it's definitely very complicated.
So, even though there was a "Seventh Legion," that was sent through the world knot to Scales, and that there didn't HAVE to be more than one Legion (though it doesn't quite make sense to name the only Legion of the Provincial Armies "Seventh"), but we can assume that there was at least another Legion. I suspect that whatever soldiers survived to make it to Muirthemne after escaping from Madrigal were combined into just a single Legion, perhaps asummed at about 5- or 6,000 men. This is why, as it was in TFL, called "The Legion." In TFL, it was called "The Legion" because it was the Legion that the Journal-writer was in. It could have had any name, but "The Legion" is only how we knew it. The same could be true for m2 by the time of "The Wall," but I suspect rather that there aren't many soldiers more than a Legion's-worth, of about 6,000.

P.S. 15 thousand is more like three Legions.
