Also remeber that Saruman's Orthanc was just a mocking imitation of the war machine that Sauron had at Barad Dur. There is no way Saruman could have beaten Sauron without the One Ring.

For the valour of the Edain the Elves shall ever remember as the ages lengthen, marvelling that they gave life so freely of which thay had on earth so little. But it is not for thy valour only that I send thee, but to bring into the world a hope beyond thy sight, and a light that shall pierce the darkness." Ulmo - Lord of waters
