Is there some sort of rule in any of the lotr source books and rule books that restrict charicters and wargear if others are included,
for example includeing Aragon as a King of gondor and having Gandalf the gray or Theoden in the same force.
or even being as picky as not letting the main hobbits have their elven cloaks with again Gandalf the gray.
Because if it's just a morale thing where it's the right thing to do to be time period percific you could have a monster of an army eg the balrog and sauron or even the dark lord Melkor if gw ever decides to go back beyoundn the sinking of the west.

Um, i dont understand you sorry

As far as I know, no. There is no rule that establishes a timeline and says, "character x cannot have y wargear if included in an army with character z, because it didn't happen that way in the books/movies."

LotR is designed to be pretty flexible.

Since LotR is a scenario-driven game, it is up to the writer of the scenario to establish such limits as they feel fit.

If you wanted to have a game where Aragorn the King didn't have Anduril, got ambushed by Sauron, and Theoden and Sauruman the White rode to his rescue, that would be just fine.
