(It's not completely based around that, just similar. I used that as an example as to how cultists aren't just mages or non-combat units. Also, any number of cultists, even twenty cultists, would be able to hold a stairwell. It's not that difficult.

Any number of archers could warrant shield bearers, if they are being bombarded and are needed to defend the walls. Also, the 'archer' class in most of the TES games are also skilled in the long blade skill, so they would be able to use swords to defend their own stairways.

Also, mages 'on the wall' would not count as mages 'in the gatehouse.' Especially as people are breaking through the gates, people would still man the murder holes. I'm sorry that I'm being confusing xD)
