Dwarves of The Last Alliance

[Kuruharan]

I actually don't know about that.

The way it is described after the Battle of Azanulbizar, it sounds like something unique in their history.

We don't know exactly the relation of the battle lines to the mountains. It is possible that the Alliance was close enough to the mountains for the dwarves to follow their usual customs.

Of course, while Sauron's dwarves might not have been upset about the matter, the Longbeards might not have been too happy about burying their kin in the Mountains of Mordor.

Dwarves may have simply not fought in the region where the marsh sprung up.

[Gil-Galad]

There was probaly a morgue chamber in Khazad-Dum... though it was not enitrely sure where the dwarves fought, they probaly helped with the building and stuff, like when Osgiliath was beseiged, maybe some dwarves came down and started fortifying it? probaly under Elvish supervison...who knows?

[Kuruharan]

While you are probably right that the dwarves did a lot in siege warfare during the War of the Last Alliance, I doubt there was much in that area that the elves could teach them.

[Gil-Galad]

well i was thinking of ideas cause there was no indication of dwarvish building-type things in Osgiliath, so i would think that they worked with elves and gondorian builders...

[Zebedee]

Considering that dwarves are master builders, I do not think that men or elves would have needed to work with them.

[Gil-Galad]

Its not that they were master builders, its how there building techniques could be incorperated into Gondorian-style buildings...
