Personally I think that Rand simply used Egwene and the Aes Sedai to do all the work in assembling the armies exactly where he wants them. Why go to all the bother with meeting with all the leaders, writing them letters organising gateways for them to bring their soliders if you can get Egwene and co to do it for you?
Rand himself said that he wasn't going to fight Tarmon Gaidon for humanity, but he would organize them for that. He used Egwene to bring everyone to one place. Probably for a speech or some such.

Her arguably irrational objections might be a result of Aran'gar's compulsion. *NM*

Especially that she is gathering armies to convince/force Rand...

Can anyone explain to me why she needs armies for this, anyway?

Rand is the Dragon Reborn. That doesn't mean he's the savior of the world.

Absolutely. I suspected he was doing this the moment he organised another meeting. *NM*

Her objection is based out of a fear borne of good reasoning

Of course you'd say that. You just won't get past your prejudice in favor of her, can you?

Exactly: Egwene knows what she knows, including the fact that LTT knows a HELLUVA lot more.
