Military History Smackdown

Simple question: What war do you find more interesting, World War 1 or World War 2 and why?

Personally, I find WW1 more interesting and more important. It is a perfect example of old fashioned leadership and dated battle strategy clashing with new age technology. First widespread integration of planes, machine guns of any kind, area denial via mustard gas, tanks, and modernized artillery which was all used alongside old fashioned battle implements like horses and sabers. WW1 also completely changed the map of Europe, set the stage for WW2, rewrote the way battles are fought, put the U.S. & Japan on track to becoming world powers, and phased out "traditional" warfare forever.

Here's just one example of drastic battle strategy changes. The Western front is ridden with tunnels from both sides planning to attack from underground. Hell, there were even tunnels dug under enemy positions that were filled with explosives to kill the enemy from under their feet. That's some Wile E. Coyote shit right there.
