@Tarmaque Quite honestly, in my opinion it still is today. If humans were intrinsically more peaceful, we wouldn't need people as cannon fodder to 'protect' lines on a map, religious ideals or property.

Agree with your information. I know that bayonets were actually also implemented in an era where it took a long time to reload a gun. Bayonets were placed so that a musketeer could protect himself in case he didn't have a loaded gun or if someone was too close to shoot at. At least, that's one of the reasons, or so I understood. :)
