Am I reading the opinion of the learned group correctly that attrition is not
a viable strategy in a tournament setting? I get the notion that there has to
be some element of "strike hard, strike fast, show no mercy" in the army
composition and tactics to win because of limited time frames.

You can't grind them down or overwhelm them with numbers?

John,

You can use attrition to set up your main attack. In 15mm you see cavalry
armies that need to shoot up their opponent before launching their main
attack. I play later Ottoman Turks and against many opponents there is a lot
shooting before the main attack. Remember failed morale checks cause your
opponent to take more morale checks.
