Let me tell you why: You aren't being reasonable and you're aggressively pushing the Easterlings to a "level of strength and skill" that they don't have. Yes, they are a barbaric and savage people, and Tolkien never hid his favoritism toward the "greater races", in this case, the Gondorians. It doesn't matter how ~cool~ the Easterling armor seems to be in the movies, because they are a "lesser" people and lesser in all society and culture matters. Call it racism if you want, but that's how Tolkien envisioned his world and no one can deny that.

But these aren't toliken's easterlings... Also I never knew empires could be considered barbaric. But this is Tolkien's world, evil will always be "debuffed" it is a consistent theme in Tolkien's work that when a nation goes evil it's craft, it's lore, it's culture is tainted. These are not even men who did not fight for agianst the Valar in the War of Wrath, their ancestors fought for Morgoth and for their treason, they where basicly cursed.
