Generally, a battle "is a conceptual component in the hierarchy of combat in warfare between two or more armed forces, or combatants. A war sometimes consists of many battles. Battles generally are well defined in duration, area, and force commitment.
Wars and military campaigns are guided by strategy, whereas battles take place on a level of planning and execution known as operational mobility. German strategist Carl von Clausewitz stated that "the employment of battles ... to achieve the object of war" was the essence of strategy.
The definition of a battle cannot be arrived at solely through the names of historical battles, many of which are misnomers. The word battle is a loanword in English from the Old French bataille, first attested in 1297, from Late Latin battualia, meaning "exercise of soldiers and gladiators in fighting and fencing", from Late Latin (taken from Germanic) battuere "beat", from which the English word battery is also derived via Middle English batri, and comes from the staged battles in the Colosseum in Rome that may have numbered 10,000 individuals.

Oh yeah! Hit it!
Breakin‚ out, I'm on a mission,
Been caught between heaven and hell.
My guitar is my ammunition,
Raise the flag, sound the mission bell.
Everybody always wants control of me,
The only way to get it's over my dead body.
Take no prisoners, open fire,
Battle stations!
Someone's trying to brainwash me,
Battle stations!
Six-string shooter, hear it screaming,
Slicing your head like a laser beam.
It's true love when I'm cranking the metal,
It makes me, makes me, makes me cream.
Never let you get between me and my guitar.
No use to keep trying, you won't get very far.
Take no prisoners, open fire,
Battle stations!
Someone's trying to brainwash me,
Battle stations!
Open fire, raise your fist,
Battle stations!
It's the season to resist,
Preprogrammed morons,
Computer sleaze.
Oh, yeah yeah yeah yeah!
Never let you get between me and my guitar,
No use to keep trying, you won't get very far.
Take no prisoners, open fire,
Battle stations!
Someone's trying to brainwash me,
Battle stations!
Back off, baby!
Take no prisoners, open fire!
Battle stations! Battle stations!
Take no prisoners, open fire!
Preprogrammed morons,
Computer sleaze.
