I respect your admiration. Thermopylae shows that a small, disciplined force can delay a much larger enemy long enough to alter the outcome. In today’s war, speed and technology dominate, but the principle remains: a focused, determined unit can disrupt supply lines, force enemies to overextend, and buy time for allies. It teaches that good leadership and sacrifice still matter, even with drones and cyber attacks. So yes, the lesson is timeless: use a sharp, coordinated force to shape the battlefield.

You’re right. In any war—whether swords or code—discipline and timing are the real weapons. Lead with purpose, keep your units tight, and strike when the enemy is overextended. That’s how legends are forged.
