Beat me to it Sleeky

. My understanding, as Sleeky posted above, is that entrance to the city (breaking down the gates etc.) will be instanced. However, once the instance is completed the instance will close and in the live world the gates will open. At this point your entire army can pour through the gates to loot and wreak havoc

.
I remember everything Sleeky mentioned and I'm almost positive he's correct.
