MODERATORS
Hard disagree. It's a matter of treating it differently.
How would you know? We’ve never had a chance to watch it.
Sir, I've had the troops assemble into a shield wall. We're ready for the enemy's advance.
Perfect, captain. Now tell the elves to jump over the shield wall and go stab some dudes.

That makes me think: Game of Thrones also has excellent scenes of pitched battles.
Imagine a piece of the scale and scope (including of historical accuracy) of Waterloo (1970) done with modern techniques.
