The accuracy of elven arrows is legendary...at least to me. One long shot...one kill.
Why not an interdiction force, like Turin and his band, that harassed the enemy? Take that one step further, not just taking the low hanging fruit of casual encounters with orcs and ilk, but plan a small attack with the goal of elimination one or more individuals.
The larger question is why the elves and even men 'awaited' attack, except, like when the Númenóreans came ashore, are in force?
