Amarie, i meant LotR as in the whole history of ME, not just the time of the Fellowship's journey. Sorry about that...
And as far as the elves not being a militaristic society, for the long years alone and then in Valinor this is true, but after Sauron taught them the forging of swords and they returned to ME there was very little time bettween wars. I would say they turned quite militaristic... The Numenorians used great steel bows that were greatly feared for their range and power, but it doesnt say anything about crossbows.
