Tactically speaking, it would seem to be pretty dumb - they shouldn't be able to catch-up to the rowboats. And if they swam out to try to board the ships they should be easy to pick-off.
Then again, it looked like they must have had at least a few hundred thousand all along the shores.
Plus, maybe the WW General wanted to let them live to go and spread fear - if everyone runs in fear you take territory without even fighting. But the backstory in the shows for the WW is terribly lacking...hopefully Sam fills in some of those gaps for us next season. But most thought they were just myths or stories, so in that way the people know as much as we do.
picked off? with what dragon glass?
Send them off alive? they have no need for fear tactics infact the more they kill the stronger they become. as their numbers increase.
This isnt a typical army of typical soldiers.
