Not so ridicolous. Although the counter examples offered by Snipey don't serve well his point there is no shortage of wars which have lasted for decades. Think Angola 1975-1991/2002 (depending how you define the timeline) or Sri Lanka 1983-2009 (again depending how you define the timeline) for example.
The Iran Iraq war lasted eight years, two years longer than WW2. Generally however long wars are low intensity (unless you are in the middle of it). Nukes are one of the limits. |
The Iran-Iraq war is already covered by the appropriate batlocs, as is the USSR in Afghanistan, SA vs the Angolans/Cubans and Korea already "hot swaps" the Chinese for N Koreans in the early period till post-Yalu river. But none of these really fit the mould of the same set of core troops fighting the entire war.
In that case, you should sell off at least a third or 2/3 of your experienced core troops every year or 2 and replace with new purchases to represent the conscript rotation, perhaps?.
