Well done. Not hard, was it...
By the way, when I spoke of six, apart from those you named, I was thinking of the Battle of Fornost... Take the thread, Rune! EDIT: x-ed. Okay, Mnemo, you get the big invisible plus I promised

I just got to think about these: battle of Isengard and I guess they must also have taken part of "the war of the last alliance". . . didn't all races participate?

Silly
Which battle took place at a location that almost rhymes with "Free Will Whale"?

You mean Dimrill Dale?

And for the Last Alliance, that's an interesting question - probably, at least on first sight, not (maybe it even says somewhere that there were just "Elves, Men and Dwarves" - at least I recall somewhere it's enumerated how Dwarves fought on both sides, but just very few of them. Hence, who knows. Also, the Hobbits didn't play any important role until 3rd Age. On the other hand, they could have been omitted from the records, as Merry and Pippin pointed out to Treebeard. Okay, enough rant ).

Oh sorry, "which battle" was the question. Battle of Azanulbizar.
As for Battle of the Peak... I guess it counts only because it was called "battle"

Surely it should have been named "The Brawl of the Peak"
