A dark army shouldnt need a metaphoric commodity to show its power. The power for the dark is represented through its brute strength and lack of mercy. Now before this war actually begins, the population of the world has lived 1000 years without a leveler to destroy them. This means that their economic system is in place. Sure they may fight against one another but the Cath Bruig Empire at this time is the greatest empire the world has ever known. I think that its safe to say that the light soldiers are being paid.
I would also like to point out that the start of this war, and the return of connacht as Balor, sybolizes the end of the light era.
