Bullets have been obsolete for decades. Wars are currently fought by selling shitty financial instruments en masse to your opponents while you sit and watch them implode from afar.

WW1 turned out to be far more deadly because the participants were stuck thinking of war in terms of old conflicts while technology advanced. I don’t see ground invasions working the same way against adversaries with nukes.
