The ship is a Reverance Class Cruiser, meaning that it is a ship that is approximately three kilometers in length and the exact amount of personnel is not known, but is estimated as "several thousand". Seeing as this particular ship, the Victorie's Vanguard, is intended to be the flagship of it's fleet (the Fleet of Valor), the amount of troops aboard the ship is estimated to be 7,800 combat personnel, as well as an uncertain amount of troops operating/maintaining the ship. Being a Reverance Class Cruiser, it's job is as a support ship in space combat and to provide reinforcements for orbit-to-land operations, in which reinforcements are often dropped from orbit in "drop-pods". Reverance Class Cruisers also used for the covenant's notorious "glassing" of planets. The ships, being enormous in size, operate as a form of small city for covenant troops aboard it.
Also, I do have a friend who is interested and would like take the place of the leader of a approximately 500 Sangheili troops, who serve as a form of space-age "Marine Corps" or "Storm Troopers" who specialize specifically in boarding enemy ships. Note that he has access to 500 troops TOTAL, that is the full extent of his forces, and he is still under the Shipmaster and other officers of the ship. The likelihood of these forces being deployed all at once is highly unlikely, and would most likely only occur under dire conditions. Also, it seems only fair that he and his troops be given 32 Phantom Gunboats (http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Phantom_Gunboat) as well as access to as many boarding craft as he requires (assuming the ship has an availability).
