Oops you're right SGH.
I just looked it up, in The Silmarillion Amrod and Amras were slain in the attack on Earendil's people at the Mouths of Sirion. |

afro-elf, yes, that's true. That one died in the burning of the ships is a very late change on Tolkien's part, he wrote the 'strange and sinister tale'* during the last four years of his life. I imagine it wasn't implemented into The Silmarillion either because C. T. wasn't aware of it or because it was just too difficult to bring about.

The Sil is a big tease. It gives such a good sample but it leaves you wanting so much more.

No not disappointed just hungry for more.
It would be great if some of those stories could be expounded upon like LOTR.

Have you read Unfinished Tales? That will give you a bit more. It elaborates on some of the stories in the Sil.
