[rutslegolas]

i tottaly agrree with -lathspell

but if the characters would have played a active roll then the whole story would have been different

but the elfs in rivindell like elrond,glorfindel could have played a part in the war of the rings

and i guess the dwarves would have been a great help in the war but as they were busy fighting the forces of sauron in dale ,i guess they could not help

but an elven army from thranduil would have been a great help
