(yes i know tauriel and kili too lol) Now I may be reading this wrong, but dwarves and elves in the third age never went to war with each other. Only in the battle of the caves (dwarves won) and the destruction of Doriath (Elves won) did they go to war. Actually, in the Battle of Five Armies, The Lake Men and the Elves where about to Attack the Dwarves, which was suddenly averted by Gandalf because Orcs and Goblins where coming in Great Numbers.
