(and green!)The funny thing about "true" dnd large war tactics is that they would look a lot like our do today.When you have magical traps on the field (mines), fireballs (explosives), and summoned creatures (tanks)...then tactics will evolve to handle these threats just like a modern army does.However, there is one big difference between 3e and 4e to note. In 4e, a wizard can do small blasts all day long but only has the big stuff once in a blue moon (once per day or once per encounter....in large battles are pretty much once per day).A 3e prepared wizard could toss a lot of fireballs, a 4e wizard will have scorching burst, but that doesn't do the amount of damage with the large area of the 3e fireball. You couldn't assault a castle with those for example.</blockquote>
