>you'll never see prussia at its peak

Why live?

More to the point, why die?

so do troops and vehicles now require neither food nor fuel? do soldiers not need to be strategically positioned and conduct patrols in tactically sound areas?

Implying this is comparable in an age of drone strikes

i fucking hate this place

is everyone here 16 years old?

>you won't see prussian military culture return to its former glory and allowed to conquer rogue states

>we'll never go back to a time where war was not as devastating and is chock full of glory and prestige
>we'll never go to war for dumb fuck reasons because of the existence of nukes

Feels good

Retard fr*g detected

Yes.

>back to the time period where war required skill, tactics, strategy and logistics instead of just who has le more powerful bomb to blow up a city
Which time period, exactly? The one where hundreds of thousands slaughtered each other in trenches while millions of civilians starved? Or before that, when wars were fought by men who lived in another continent for some godforsaken spits of land? Or way before that, when armies marched to war because some idiot told them it was the will of God that blood shall be spilled? I'll never understand you children and your idolising of war.

>It's redditor doesn't understand that war was much more romanticized and "enojyable" before 20th century episode

do you know what romanticized means you dumb fuck?

Found the newfag

War has always been about
>who has le powerful (insert powerful weapon the victor used against the less advanced here) to fuck up a city

All armies use the four things you mentioned, they always have and still do. In several hundred years time your great grand kids will bitch about how we all just use nuclear bombs and donĀ“t bravely step foot on the enemies territory in badass army squads fighting off hoards of terrorists and avoiding civilian casualties.

>we'll never go to war for dumb fuck reasons because of the existence of nukes

Did nukes prevent thousands of Americans dying in Iraq due to the combination of a Saudi dude blowing up the WTC and Bush being bad at geography?

>who has le more powerful bomb to blow up a city

name 5 conflicts where this happened after WW2

If its not total war with another major power its fucking nothing mate

>Implying there won't be a golden age after the global nuclear holocaust.

Wow, what a stupid post.

Kys

Of course not. I'm sure Veeky Forums has lots of 15 year olds who do their fair share to shit the place up.

>Ground operations are irrelevant, just nuke/airstrike/dronestrike whoever pisses you off

War was genuinely less deadly and less traumatic in the past simply because soldiers weren't actually conditioned to kill, the majority of american frontline infantry in ww2 were found to have never even fired in the direction of the enemy. People just don't genuinely want to kill eachother on average.
If you never kill anyone you never have to live with the guilt.

>mfw

Oh look, this retard again
American troops in WW2 are the exception, not the rule
They lived like princess and rarely ever faced danger
The fact most of them never killed anyone doesnt tell you anything about "warfare of the past"

I can assure you that the average German/Russian WW2 grunt, the average Napoleonic soldier or the average Swiss pikeman killed and saw more dangers than the average pussy ass welfare queen that "fought" in Iraq and Afghanistan

Oh, it's you. The fuckface that thinks war was less deadly and traumatic in the past. What's the next outrageous thing you're going say faggot? Penicillin was a mistake? Germany could of won WW1 and WW2 if they did this and this differently?

For fucksake are you mimicking Renly Baratheon?

>tfw live in a minor nation
>never done anything noteworthy
>despite our irrelevance, we provided great soldiers and generals to the world

ireland is bants

>ireland
but that's switzerland.

Just you wait until all conventional weapons are replaced by swarms of tiny nano machines that will literally eat enemy soldiers and use them as raw material to construct more nano machines.

>wars were fought by men who lived in another continent for some godforsaken spits of land
what war is this?

>be swiss
>use halberd on duke of Burgundy
>end an entire state

Have you ever looked at the accuracy of muskets on the battlefield compared to outside of it? It's night and day.

Even just by the potential of the weapons used, it was.

You only say this because you don't understand what operational warfare looks like

or apparently haven't studied WW2 at all

warfare now relies on the individual skill of every soldier because it's not formation based

Colonial or scramble for Africa is my guess

get cucked gramps

>just who has le more powerful bomb to blow up a city

yes, because that's what secured a swift and easy American victory in Vietnam. Or the Soviet in Afghanistan.
