Unless the main army is guaranteed to come to their aid -- which they may be given the look of the map -- a token force of besiegers would probably be easy work for the garrison. I believe there were already several thousand troops in there even before they were supplemented by the 5k or so survivors of the Battle of Messana. Do we have a good read on their numbers, Brian?
After we soak the battlefield in the blood of this group of leaderless rabble, we can assess whether we can safely split off a force -- or even if we need to. We should have some movement left after the battle.
