Hi!

Gareth Edwards was also interviewed by fxphd, and that may help you as well:

Here's a tutorial using the AE plug-in Trapcode Particular to generate a crowd:

I also think you could use Lloyd Alvarez's 3D layer distributor script to spread out your greenscreen footage to create the army. It would take a little sting off doing it by hand:

By the way, I have not tried any of these, but have been thinking about it. :)

take care, wjm
