Not that I'm putting down the abilities of these other Men, but it is said the Dúnedain, "became mighty in crafts, so that if they had had the mind they could easily have surpassed the evil kings of Middle-earth in the making of war and the forging of weapons; but they were become men of peace." [Sil, Akallabêth, p. 323] Not that it would have been an easy fight, but even Sauron dared not fight them in battle since, "he perceived that the power and majesty of the Kings of the Sea surpassed all rumour of them, so that he could not trust even the greatest of his servants to withstand them" [p. 334].
