Won't the team tire after some time? 10.000 is a lot of people to slay. Before they are dead, the team might be exhausted. Especially since they will run out of ammo after about one thousand or three dead.
Meh, mines alone wouldn't be that useful, it would be c4 and stuff that will get kills.
Anti Personnal mines are designed to injure people wearing stuff like kevlar, not kill them, thats why they're banned under Geneva Convention.
And steel plate armour would probably survive just as well in such a situation...

sarumon isnt the omniscient narrator. what he says doesnt actually mean anything. proof from the canon books show that urukhai run when theyre getting beaten and can be killed by single slashes and stabs just like everyone else. and the dunedain are not superhuman, they only live longer like the elves. if you want to keep making these statements provide actual proof from the books or get out. your sentiments are ridiculous no offense.

A fetal hit from a Axe, sword, or arrow would kill anyone superman human. It would probably kill Spiderman, Captain America, Batman..etc. It will even kill a Uruk.
Dunedains are actually more experienced, they have valor, are brave..etc. All this adds to their strength.
1000s of orcs can be killed with booby traps. 1 gatling gun can kill 100s.
I already think they can do but there are other avenues. LIke blowing up the side of the moutain and burring a bunch of orcs... or even collapsing a wall on top of the orcs. OR just using lighting the wole field on fire with napalhm.
Again a coupe chaingun built out of a stone window, not much orcs can do about that but hope to hit a very small target very far away.
Again The team takes this it's just gonna take a while.

You got a point one thing I stated was that it was a castle full of items that you would find in a castle. Im sure there would be alot of oil ,mix that with gunpowder and im sure they can think of something.

Suddenly, there is a window.
have you ever seen a ****ing castle before?
In most castles there are almost always windows so archers an shoot out of and not get hit. You think the team is just gonna stand out side where there is no cover on top of some spire shooting down??
Or do you think there are no such tactical windows in all of helms deep supposedly the strongest defended city in the whole damn story.
Okay lets just say for some crazy ass reason the designer of Helms deep decided that windows was not in fashion and the ovious benefits of being able to shoot out of window and not get hit by enemy just seemed too good to be true.
Their are sheilds, would be no problem for the tam to find a way to prop a few shield over themselves.
Like really no windows??!!! wtf

Like he said shield formation like the Romans.

So now they have shield. Okay! Well you might as well give them a Hydrogen Bomb since you want them to win so badly.

Well it can help them out but I still don't see how they can win. They are going to make a square formation on top of the wall, and a Gatling gun in the center shooting. If they do that, it will still make them vulnerable to Balistas, and increase the chances of Uruks getting to them quicker.
The Ninja's will still die from a volley or arrows. Where are the others going to stay??
the wooden things on hinges could definately block incoming arrows, as for balista's I imagine they would eliminate those and other heavy weapons first to minimise the effectivness of the attacking army, and seeing as they would supposedly have rocket launchers I don't see that being a problem.
As for the volley of arrows wiping out the ninjas quickly, I don't recall the orcs/uruk-whatevers actually firing a volley of arrows at any point during the battle in the movie (haven't read the books), the elves fired volley's the other guys just had a few crossbows and fired about 8 times that we saw.

Also, Balista have a huge range. Also, if they focus on killing them first. The soldiers will get to the keep very quickly.
