	Battle of Fornost - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tolkien's fictional universe of Middle-earth, the Battle of Fornost was the battle that defeated Angmar.
		The Battle of Fornost was fought in the year 1975 of the Third Age by an army under Eärnur, Crown-Prince of Gondor against Angmar.
		While the battle was a success in that Angmar was defeated, it came too late for Gondor's sister-realm Arnor: the last remaining part of Arnor, Arthedain had been conquered a year prior in 1974, and the last King of Arnor Arvedui had drowned in the Ice-Bay of Forochel.

	The battles of, Dagorlad, Orodruin, Fornost, Azanulbizar and Morannon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		It appears that this battle (and later, during the seven-years siege of Barad-dûr, and the battle of Orodruin at the end of it, when Sauron comes out and fights with the kings) is a natural for concentrating on the heroic powers of individual champions and their magic weapons.
		The first battle obviously hinges on the fact that the Witch-king underestimates the strength of his foes; not having heard adequate news of the arrival of the army of Gondor.
		Fought near or on the same ground as the battle of Dagorlad, this is the final battle of the Third Age and the War of the Ring.
