Anyone for a good debate?

Personally, I think Varda would be a great help against Morgoth. Didn't it say somewhere that he could not withstand her gaze, and that even before the creation of Arda that she shunned him?

I can imagine Varda smirking at Morgoth, and Morgoth sweating like crazy... heh.

And even if the Queens of the Valar did not fight, I think Fëanor, Fingolfin, Maedhros, and plenty of other Elves would be looking for rematches or revenge against Morgoth.

I do not think ALL the Edain would join up with Sauron, but plenty of them probably would... At least the Three Houses of Elf-friends and the Numenoreans would still be with the Eldar! Although that does seem pitifully few when compared to the vast legions of darker Men.

Maybe the hobbits will help save the day! I can see ole' Bullroarer Took sitting astride a stallion and charging the armies of Orcs with naught but a golf club. But seriously, the hobbits have proven themselves battle-worthy, as little as they may be.
