A tidbit :

Maximum killing capacity per day :

In 1600: (Cannon fodder) - 2,400 persons
In 2011: (Nuclear Bomb) - 12,000,000,000 persons

Average daily battle casualties per 100 troops :

In 1600: 25 persons
In 2011: 3 persons

We appear to be getting better in our ability to kill people whilst making a battlefield a safer place to be.....
