[Game of Thrones] *SPOILERS* Wildling battle strategy?

How we survived the first night of assault from the Wildling horde is mysterious indeed. I only recently took the Black as a recent outcast from the South- for reasons I will keep to myself. I may be new to the wall, but war is an older thing- far older than I, and I was born into it. My own experiences leave me troubled with tonight's result. How are we alive?

Whether the Wildlings knew it or not, they had us outnumbered by the thousands. We counted barely a hundred strong. Any commander worth his salt, Wildling or otherwise, should have known that attacking the main gate of the wall meant attacking the Watch's most heavily guarded position- yet they cast their army against it like waves against the rocks.

I've heard frightened whispers that they were only testing our defenses, but even in doing so- would they not have attacked the wall from multiple positions? The wall is said to be 300 miles long, and guarded tonight by mostly lit torches and empty parapets. The fools scaled the wall in the only place they could have possibly failed, thank the Gods. But why?!

They must have known that attacking from the South would be much more effective than attempting the gate from the North-side, for they sent a small, skilled unit of warriors that nearly accomplished taking Castle Black by themselves! Why not test the wall for less fortified areas and amass a larger force to take the gate from the South?

Do not misunderstand- I am overjoyed to take breath- I simply question why. Do these wildmen have any strategy or command structure in place? Were they simply instructed to do what comes naturally to them- to grunt, and to roar, and bash themselves against the enemy until the blood was dry? Perhaps they view a tactical approach *cowardly* in their simple, tribal minds- and prefer the pride and vanity of a full frontal assault against our main force.

Their strategy seems horribly flawed, though it is early yet and indeed there are far fewer of us now than when the night began- but can anyone explain how this attackplan made any sense at all?

It's not just an army, it's an exodus. The wildings have women, children, the sick and the old with them, and most can't make the grueling climb. They need a gate, and the only open gates are the Shadow Tower, Castle Black and Eastwatch.
