I'm not wuite sure of that one, although Snape, to me, is more like Boromir. Gimli just doesn't really have a counterpart, unless Mad-Eye? I think Faramir might be more similar to Lupin, although Aragorn does seem rather nice, Eowyn as Tonks or Ginny, more likely, Theodred as Sirius, Gollum as Pettigrew sounds about right, or Wormtongue. Voldemort's war seems less based on real life, but if it was, I think it would lean more towards terrorism and guerrila style-attacks than full-out war, like in WWII.
