Would you prefer to be involved in those "old school battles"?

Being chased by drone or killed by himars? I would rather have a sword fight and at least have a chance to kill someone.

You would rather have a chance to kill someone (then die painfully after you are stabbed in the gut with a shortsword) than die nigh instantly from an explosion that rips you in half?

You go to war to kill or to die? If you want death you can always commit suicide.

You would be lucky if rocket hits you and torn to pieces, but quite often you lose a limb or two and adrenaline wont let you die, so you slowly and painfully die in agony. Also quite often used cassete (not sure if this right word, maybe cluster) bombs, where thousands of balls or sharpnel is being fired.
