Most likely they disperse. mix with the companies, cops and gangs. They would still be noticeable, but yea, and I'm not saying it will be easy. Nor am I implying that they will not drop off the radar. All Im saying is that, unless you are on coruscant (the empire hid a super star destroyer on that planet and no one noticed until it lifted off one day), then making a million people disappear will be really hard. You have to admit after five years its hard to keep tabs on individuals. All you need is gotham's gangs to fight each other.

The police department....sure, but I don't think Amon will risk his people by having them infiltrate gangs , I mean hell, some Villains kill their own gang thugs for fun.

Amon uses his army as chess pieces, he knows he as to sacrifice some people in order to ensure a sizable army in the end.

True, but remember, he is going up against other "Chess" players.......then their are people like the Joker who have a "plan", I have a Feeling that Amon wont be .... excepted by the Villain community, in fact, I think they will be his biggest opposition.

Oh, and Deathstroke is and isn't a batman villain. He is because Batman is one of his main opponents, he isn't because he has battled Nightwing enough that he is considered by many fans to be a member of Nightwing's Rogues gallery

I do not have first hand experiance with LoK and do not fully know what the Equalist command structure/ resources are like . I shall now take a "wait and see" approach, and see what GA has to add when he gets back

Well for the most parts Amon basically grass rooted his whole thing, slipping people into important jobs to get to officials, had businessmen on his side/in his pocket, five years I could see him pulling off similar connections Wayne industries have plenty of competitors and they all hate each other just as much, he could play them like fiddles. Plus he could always do what all the best in Gotham do and double life, Amon at times, and by day mysterious businessman Noatak. Not likely but still. To their command structure, the Lieutenant is the only real officer we ever saw I think, everyone else was essentially just an army of elite mooks. I believe anyway. - To the tazer gloves they work despite the Metal Bending Police armor, since they essentially work as chi blocker gauntlets tazer may not be the best word, thought effect is similar, still we're talking about agile ninja guys with chi blocking kung fu knockout gas grenades, bolos etc. Who knows what we would see them work up with the modern worlds tech. The disks are large disks with tazer rope whip things that will either taze you out or hit you with the force of a medium sized metal disk launched by a tank.

Ok, but that still didnt answer a few of my questions, like how he will keep the sudden million additional people from being noticed. Could Batman, Or one of the smart super villains, revers engineer the Gauntlet/Disk tech and/or create a counter for it.Batman supposedly(I say that because I dont know for sure) knows/ mastered nearly all forms of hand to hand combat and martial arts, What Martial arts has Amon trained his men to use? Also, whats to stop Batman from Investigating keeping tabs on Amon's troops movements should he learn who some of them are?

@shadow as I said in the OP they are in hidden bases in Gotham, say underground bases if you will, bought up buildings no one cares about, that kind of thing, Batman will only see whisphers and shadows of them until their debut attack. He can chase the ghosts all he wants but he'll never find anything until New Years day on that last year, when Amon does what happened in Turning the Tides, but to Gotham with modern tech mixed with Equalist gear. - As tot he gear, it's a flying circle of platinum metal with metallic rope and an electrical generator in it, it's not really something counterable until you have found out, and by then the match will be under way. Basically it'll be like the start of Arkham Asylum, Bruce is giving the New Years speech, the ball drops, everyones clapping, kids are cheering at the fireworks as the clock starts chiming twelve. Then figures in the crowd suddenly don equalists masks, taze gauntlets, despite the checks, somehow someone on the inside set up by Amon gave them the gear, suddenly the police begin and then across Gotham as important officials are told to flee www.animeultima.tv/avatar-the-legend-of-korra-episode-10/start at 5:17 ish then watch the terrorism occur.

also was wrong it's tazer grappling claws the mechatanks have. And to the martial arts thing, all the Equalist Mooks are basically all like Tai Lee from the first series hyper agile super skilled just over peak human martial artists that know how to hit pressure points/chi block. The gloves help. Keep in mind these guys are used to fighting benders, true some of the villains are capable of similar stuff but the general forces will be plowed through.
