Sindar great warriors?
First, I just want to say thank you to Doug for answering.
"In all honesty, I was not involved in the decision-making process, so I don't know the exact thought-processes involved. However, The Noldor are known for their nobility, craftsmanship, and lore while the Sindar are known for their music, song and martial skills. Thus it makes more sense for the Noldor to have the modifiers they have as opposed to those the Sindar have." I was aware of their musical gifts but I wasn't aware of their martial prowess. I assumed it was mostlty the Noldor in great wars of the first age because Thingol didn't wish to be involved with the Sons of Feanor

I think there is something about the Noldor on the whole being better warriors. It was their overall innate power bequethed to them by the Holy Ones, I guess. Many Grey-elves were involved in the same wars the Noldor were. Don't forget that they were mingled in many places, especially the Fingolfinian realms.
