To all i do not comment I agree.
BL-EX-17.5 I hesitated long about this. Is it think able that a Elf used a Orc weapon, because it seems mightier? I think not. But on the other hand, Orcs often used waepons from their foes, so this might be a weapon captured from by a orc-captina from some Dwarf in distance day and then captured by Mablung in a later battle. And since in the end our principle is to let a story stand if it can not be unproven, we should let the captured stand.

BL-EX-18.7: Agreed to the first change.
Yes, you are right. But I think we should still ceary Huan back with Beren and also I would like to take up the name Camlost and this heritage:
