The thing is, interex might not have as many soldiers, but they could both utilize them much faster, in the right place and way, and with far fewer casualties. Yet for all that, the Interex were brutally beaten by the Luna Wolves when they went on the offensive and caught the LWs off guard.

And if that is so, why have the Eldar not won? Sure, they have far less soldiers, but they damn well know how to use them, and they can pop up pretty much anywhere.

Numbers aren't everything, but they're about 80% of a battle when it comes to such numbers as the Imperium, Orks and Tyranids have.
