Catfishperson wrote: The Maiar were stated to be numerous, although since that in itself is a vague term, we I guess it can be interpreted in different ways. And during the "Battle of the Powers," Morgoth had more then just himself and a few fallen Maiar, he also had a great host of orcs, trolls and other foul creatures he had bred. Furthermore, the Host of the Valar were stated to suffer great losses, which is rather difficult to do and still win when you have an army of 50. On their first invasion, he didn't have many hosts. On the second, the majority was made up by Vanyarin elves.
