hey Maedhros, welcome to the Downs.
No, I don't think the Númenóreans were ment to perish. As Kuruharan said Eru gave them free will as a gift. So, they might have chosen if they hadn't assailed the Undying Lands. I think they perished because of the influence that one may have on the minds of men. And in this case I mean Sauron. I think, that if he hadn't been taken as a prisoner, Numenorë might still be. For if he hadn't been taken, he wouldn't have been the Kings chief counselor. He was it who at last maid them assail the Western Shores, with his lies and whisperings. I believe that if Sauron hadn't come to Numenorë, the Númenóreans would never think of assailing the West, for it was Sauron who told them that the Valar were frightened and that Melkor was Lord of All. greetings, lathspell
