If the elves were so mighty shots why didn’t they storm Esgaroth while there were only the thirteen dwarves in there? Says quite a bit about the elves don’t it? 
Soldiers are most effective when they have a cause to believe and fight for. What where the elves fight for? They were fighting for their king and his greed and want of jewels, not much of a cause. However, the dwarves were fighting to reclaim their long lost home; they were fighting for what was theirs. They had a cause to fight for, this would make them unconquerable in battle. |
There seems to be a rash of people misunderstanding my posts.

I think,
Groin, that the word "incur" may have thrown you off.
To incur means to take, to acquire, to bring upon oneself, to receive...something like that.
