Morgoth's power is terror. I think this is enhanced in his warring style. He stays behind massive walls, making the enemy have no idea of the numbers or strength of his forces, uses scare tactics like lies, then breaks the enemy's spirit by sending a massive flashy force to kill them through a lightning strike. The shock factor, the mystery factor, without this maybe the Elves and Men would be more effective in combating him. Because of this I believe in Turin's style, defiant, unshaken, proud, more than the secretive style.
