Military marines are usually a symbol of elite combat force. Seriously, the GMC(Gondor Marine Corps), had been disappeared for more than 10 centuries, according to the assumption that they took part in the 1944 war in the Southern Army of Gondor. During the raid at Umbar led by Aragorn, they...
This could include even the Second Age, by the way, not just the Third Age.
Do you think it was:
1.) His underestimating the alertness of the Elves with his plans to use his One Ring to control their leaders through the Three Rings.
2.) His losing his fair form after Numenor was sunk, when his...
I read that while the War of the Ring was taking place, there were minor clashes between evil forces and local people in eriador. What are these wars called? What is the name of these wars?
As you all know, the sindar prince of doriath, celeborn, actively fought in some wars in the war of the ring and all the wars in war of the elves and sauron, even in war of the last alliance. But the only thing that tolkien doesn't dwell on about celeborn is whether celeborn participated in the...
War of wrath lasted 43 years. Dagor bragollach lasted about 2 years. Nirnaeth arnoediad lasted 6 days. Dagor-nuin-giliath lasted 10 days. Siege of Angband lasted 400 years. But during the siege of Angband there were no serious events that could be called war. So it was just an act of...

There are 2 wars that are stated to be in the war of the ring on the site in the link. I couldn't find any other information on the internet that these 2 wars took place. Any chance it's in...

In the above article, it is explained that there are still dragons during the War of the Ring. But how true is this? there was only 1 balrog in the war of the ring. high elves were in...
During the War of the Ring, there were no balrogs, as they were all destroyed in the War of Wrath. The dragons were in the wars in the north. But what I was wondering was, were there high elves who did not return to Valinor in the wars of the War of the Ring? did high elves fight in the war of...
List of commanders of both good and evil in all the battles of Beleriand and the War of the Ring. I did not add to the list those who later betrayed during the war, and who commanded only in kinslayings and wars between dwarves and elves. The reason why I open this topic and present them is to...
From what I've researched and read about middle earth, most of the battles in the war of the ring were fought at the same time. but the wars of beleriand were not fought simultaneously, but sequentially, that is, at certain time intervals, is that true?
Dragons are included in the battles in the north in bfme 2, so is this canon? What book or source does it say that dragons were involved in the wars in the north?
I'm sorry if I've opened a similar topic before. But I'm curious about your views on this subject. Please contribute by voting and giving your opinion. Like in bfme 2, did glorfindel fight in the lothlorien attacks and fall of dol guldur during the war of the ring?
Was there any other war apart from the woodland realm war and the battle under the trees in the war of the ring? I read somewhere that there was another war before the battle under the trees. How many battles were lived in Mirkwood?

So, in Fellowship, Gandalf mentions that Sauron has many werewolves in his employ. Now, we then only hear of Wargs or such sort.
Do you think these werewolves would be any problem to the Free Peoples during and after the WotR?

I just began re-reading Akallabeth and it talks of the evil men who sided with Morgoth and fled to the eastern parts of ME. My unfounded asumtion of the third age writings is men=good but of course, this is not so. The haradrim, the Easterlings, the wildmen of Dunling, all were on the side...
The Elves of the First Age were more mighty and skilled than those of the 3rd Age. But the Orcs of the 3rd Age were stronger than those of the First Age. The Uruk-hais are the biggest indicator of this. In which of these two times did more battles take place? list of battles;
WARS OF BELERİAND...
