Now, Nenya would've been at play wherever the battle is so you have to also think about that. Also, Gundabad would lose against any form of pikemen and archer group. Pikes take out the wargs, archers the orcs. Gundabad probably has the biggest population in all MIddle Earth though, they are perhaps the greatest horde nation in all Middle Earth, they alone were a powerful match for MIrkwood, all of Durin's Folk, Esargoth and the Eagles. Escaroth had little effect, and really the eagles would come anyway to any battle if entirely necessary. Basically, Sindar and Durin's Folk. And weakly armed Sindar besides. Still, overall about two full factions worth (Sindar+Eagles+Esargoth=full kingdom roughly) and two vert strong factions at that. I think they deserve their position. I should remind you that these were from the Grey Mountains aswell, and that the Dwarves only had 500 warriors in the battle.

FOr dwarves that's a mighty war force, they had a small population. They had a fairly large population, comparable to that of Mirkwood or Lothlorien at the time.
