Okay, first of all, of course small people can be more skilled and better in fighting, I was actually trying to point out that IMO, dwarves are VERY skilled warriors, and if they stand on equal terms with the 'tall races', then what if we were to shrink for example a man (a haradrim, perhaps...

I'm not that tall either.

good point, zifnab.

The way I have understood the corruption of elves into orcs (correct me if I'm wrong) is that these were captured elves. No elf wandered voluntarily into Angband, saying "Hey, I'm here for a makeover!"

And Eol, of course there are different elves and different men and so on, but in a discussion like this, you - while having your point in the back of your head at all times - have to use stereotypes or generalizations.
