>From "Albion: The Last Companion" by Patrick McCormack comes this
helpful counting for Orlanthi (you may need a Lankhor Mhy or Irripi Ontor initiate to help you)

"Up to seven men, thieves; up to thirty-fivemen, a band; over thirty-five men, an army."

It also includes this description of when a HQ goes wrong

"'Did she intend to kill [him] or not?'
'It was all part of the ritual. She would have driven him hither and thither, then pretended to slay him, that he might come to the heart of the labyrinth as a supplicant neither living or dead. [...] When [he obtained] the sword, the fight became real. To him she was a masked figure, a threatening stranger. He did not know she meant him no harm. And she struck by instinct, not design.'"
