I hope the final battle against 40 commoners and one knight is as fun to play as it's funny to me

Are you planning to run the 40 commoners as fully detailed entities, "minion"s using imported rules from 4e, or as a smaller number of "swarms" representing multiple people each?

I honestly didn't even think that far, I just copy-pasted the scene in Foundry full of them as background characters for the final scnee and then thought "you know what would be funny..."

Running them as swarms seems like the easiest solution

There is an excellent supplement called Drops in a Pond. It is intended for Fate systems but it is a really good read for anyone who wants to run massive battles.
