    What about ancient wars?

    You could draw Gauls v Romans, or Makedonians v. Persians or something.

    And definitely get some of those scanned, man!
    "You must know, then, that there are two methods of fight, the one by law, the other by force: the first method is that of men, the second of beasts; but as the first method is often insufficient, one must have recourse to the second. It is therefore necessary for a prince to know well how to use both the beast and the man.
    -Niccolo Machiavelli

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Read Lucan's Civil War Book 9... Cato fighting the snakes. Then draw the rather graphic descriptions that Lucan describes - some of them are bizarre and quite gory.

    The list goes on. Judging from what you posted, San Saba might be more your flavor.
