Oh . My . God <| sep |> It depends . Smaller armies with better training and discipline could and did beat larger armies especially in the times of peasant levies , but only to an extent you ' ll never beat tentoone odds . But a key part of strategy is fighting where you have an advantage . Woods , rivers , and other rough terrain was historically used as a funnel , or to control an enemy advance , so that they couldn ' t flank you so easily . Removing the combat width change implies every army is now composed of lumberjacks and stonemasons that are going around widening every potential battlefield . <| sep |> haha yup i posted it up there also ! <| sep |> My proof is that Putin himself says he does . And backs it up with action . The problem isn ' t my lack of proof , it ' s your unwillingness to believe your lyin ' eyes . The comparison with Britain and Turkey would be valid if Britain had landed an expeditionary force in Mumbai to reestablish the Raj or Turkey declared that Greece was a disputed territory and set up a puppet regime in Thrace .
