It's because Tolkien believed in the whole idea of nearly hopeless situation being saved at the last minute, it's a consistent theme trough his work. Unfortunately this mod seems to have taken the idea of rule of cool over balance, that's why both Mordor and Isengard have bombs as a regular unit, even tho in the books it was a very special one of a kind weapon, This is why Olog Hai are recruitable but Ents are not, why Isengard Uruk defeats a Rohirrim 1 on 1 and so on. Frankly in this sort of Good VS Evil stories evil tends to be incredibly overpowered by design, to add drama to the setting, but when a game takes such setting and allows you to play as both sides care needs to be applied to prevent it from becoming grossly unbalanced, just translating things verbatim will often lead to this sort of thing.
