From the parses I've seen, AoW does about 1.5k dps vs. a defensive war, or about 2.5k dps vs. a non-defensive target. Burst is obviously higher, and will create situations where a warrior dies in 2 combat rounds with about a 1.5 second spacing periodically if not healed, which means the chain has to go at a stable 1 second to deal with variance, since any time you get two combat rounds in between heals you might die if you're unlucky.
Yetarr has 20k HP buffed, which is enough to give time to react when damage spikes come in. Generally with a 3 second chain I would expect them to usually drop to 60% or so before healing to full each heal, very rarely spiking down to 30-40% and going lower only when the chain is off a bit and there's a bunch of max combat rounds at once, where sky neck clicks would be needed.
For the lowest man, and assuming there's no significant heal aggro, I would probably run the entire healing off ~600 corpsed box of the voids + sky neck so there's no casting at all, just assist AoW and click when you see HP hit 50%. 4 to 5 clerics can sustain a chain on that, it would just be a bit of a pain to set up since you would need about 15-20 man-hours of corpsing time.

AoW chains are instant, not 1 second.
Doesn't matter what the paper napkin math says.
Most effective thing is to make sure the enchanters and druids are working together. Snare all troopers, tash all wolves, rune druids, spot heal enc on bad breaks, etc.
Soulfire nerf killed the low number kills. Since your DPS is low your tank WILL get splattered after disc is down eventually. All it takes is 1 missed reaper. Then you're off to the bumps / 2nd tank and re-establishing. The good part w/ troopers and wolves is they can just keep on going.
