I agree. But I think we might be a fan of bigger battles if they were done right (if its even possible to do it right). For example, most massive battles in WAR resulted in a blob of people all fighting over a small patch of land or a gate. What if you could draw out the battle lines and have a massive fight, even though there are only 20 people within 50 feet of you (you're part of a long line).
"Hamilton is really a Colossus to the anti republican party. Without numbers he is an host within himself. They have got themselves into a defile where they might be finished but too much security on the republican part will give time to his talents and indefatigableness to extricate them. We have had only middling performances to oppose to him. In truth when he comes forward there is nobody but yourself who can meet him. His adversaries having begun the attack he has the advantage of answering them and remains unanswered himself. For God's sake take up your pen and give a fundamental reply to Curtius and Camillas" - Thomas Jefferson to James Madison
