Ents at war!
in TTT fangon says he hasnt seen the ents so roused since the wars between the dark lord and the men of the sea(im gessing this means numenor) so what part did the ents play in this war?

Interesting I will try to find out. I love ANYTHING when Ents are involved, especially when they fight. Everytime I read the description of the fury of the Ents in TTT I cry for joy.

They may have took part in the war of Sauron vs Elves, since he burnt a lot of Eriador's forests.

I'm pretty sure that there is a quote somewhere that says that every creature, with the exception of the Elves, fought on either side in the Last Alliance.

im not talking about the l.a. i think the comment is talking about ar-pharazon or some other NUMENORIEN king in the 2nd age before the downfall against the dark lord befor he lost(maybe made) the ring

It could very well have been the Last Alliance (after all, Elendil & Co. were all Númenórean), but I tend to think it was when Sauron overran all of Middle-earth except for Rivendell and Lindon. That was probably when the Ent-wives were separated from the Ents.
Anyone else notice this entry in the Tale of Years? Quote:

To my knowledge the only other time (except from the war of the ring), the ents are mentioned fighting is when they aided Beren in attacking the dwarves who caused the fall of Doriath and stole the Nauglimir with the Silmaril.
