The Combination Of Modern Ordnance And Outdated Tactics Had, As Usual, Created Enormous Casualties On Both Sides.

That Was How Divorced From The Human Scale Modern Warfare Had Become. You Could Smash And Destroy From Unthinkable Distances, Obliterate Planets From Beyond Their Own System And Provoke Stars Into Novae From Light-years Off... And Still Have No Good Idea Why You Were Really Fighting.

Our Lives Are About Development, Mutation And The Possibility Of Change; That Is Almost A Definition Of What Life Is: Change... If You Disable Change, If You Effectively Stop Time, If You Prevent The Possibility Of The Alteration Of An Individual's Circumstances — And That Must Include At Least The Possibility That They Alter For The Worse — Then You Don't Have Life After Death; You Just Have Death.
