You are having people from another galaxy fight against people from Middle-Earth. Why not have today's army fight Ancient Greek's army? That sounds fair. Lightsaber cuts through anything. Swords are useless against lightsabers.
I know lightsabers have been changed to swords but they still have the force which will overpower all of them...expect for maybe Sauruman and Gandalf but they will still lose.

"No mortal man was able to kill him." He would destroy EVERY male character of the SW universe and the LotR universe.
For Gandalf and Saruman: They are still lesser gods who were wandering over Middle-Earth since it's creation and were in their known forms for more than 3,000 years. They both are able to cause huge amounts of destruction with their magic and as long as they don't face equal powers (each other, Sauron, Balrogs) they are pretty much not defeatable.

The Witch-King didn't DIE because Rohan arrived, they DIED because the ring was thrown into the pit of fire. All they did was momentarily stall him. You CAN NOT KILL the Nazgul without destroying Sauron.
I don't know why this is hard for so many of you to understand, but it's CANON.
The Witch-King destroying Gandalf's staff just indicates he's very powerful, not that Gandalf, a Maia with immense power (a lesser god) was a weakling.
Uhhh no. Gandalf beat the crap out of a Balrog with his SWORD.
They ARE MAIA. Hear that? MAIA, LESSER GODS of ARDA.
You only see such petty limitations because they are emmissaries, they are not supposed to go around and kick whomever's ass they want. Just look at what happens to Sarumon because he deferred from the chosen path, he got his rank stripped away from the Valar.
Why do you think the Valar didn't come themselves and beat the crap out of Sauron? Because it's MIDDLE EARTH BUSINESS.
Neither the Valar, nor the Maia (like Gandalf) care to DO MIDDLE EARTH BUSINESS for the people of Middle Earth.
Gandalf without his staff as seen in ROTK couldn't defeat a Troll. Sidious's powers doesn't come from his staff and neither does the other Jedi/Sith. Star Wars wins!
Sauron is MIDDLE EARTH's problem. The Valar, the Maia don't give much of a damn about Middle Earth. They send a few Maia to be EMISSARIES, aka GUIDE the people of Middle Earth to beat Sauron (a pupil of Morgoth).
You saw Gandalf release some of his real power and he kicked the crap out of a DEMON. A Demon that would demolish anyone from the SW universe on this list.
The demon is called Balrog! Second we saw how good Gandalf is at the Battle for Gondor and the Battle at the Black Gate. Where was his super powers then?
