God no, the entire point of it was so that you wouldn't get pushed back and move forward, not to form a line to send troops over it to be slaughtered because of them being inbetween held spears and an attacking army.

Yes, they got the high ground.

>fuck up a perfectly adequate phalanx shield wall

i don't get it

what's the point of the shield wall if you're just going to jump over it

hell wouldn't that make everything 10x worse since you can get skewered by both the wall and the enemy

they live for thousands of years just acquiring knowledge and training for combat and THAT is the end result? what the fuck?

Now you know why their race is dwindling and they want to bug out.

They used the CGI to their advantage.

waht are you a fucking pussy

It's literally just because it looks cool. Will the Elves help? Will they not? Oooo I don't know, MUSIC SWELL AND BAM

Why didn't they just fly the elves to Mordor?

>Dorfs form a perfectly good phalanx, expecting the Smurfs to support it with super-accurate arrow fire and being expert close-quarters swordsmen who will hold any break until the rank is reformed
>LOL WE GOTTA DO OUR KUNG FU DANCE SHIT

So heavy cavalry beats the phalanx. Were Warq riders heavy cav or light? I'm referencing the Hobbit novel, not the Two Towers.

what do you gain from spamming this.

Is this a good military tactic?

really hoping they implement this maneuver in the next total war

No, you couldn't have a formation for vulnerable to flanking than that, it's one big flank.

one has to considering the little time the director had to plan and shoot that episode

>Yfw you realize the elves just cucked the dwarfs in the battle
>Mfw the dwarfs loved it

Fucking elves man. Good thing they all fucked off to Valinor.

They had to give Legoland scale in his abilities. I mean if he can be indestructible then all elves should be too. It's not like he's a prince or anything special.
