Currently India and Pakistan face off armed to the teeth with no quarter given to reconcilliation. Military Strategists in these two countries aren't the only ones feverishly pacing in their offices trying to presage the future. The US, as the only global super power has to involve itself politically.
Pakistan and India are not like England and France. They dont fight against each other and support each other. These two countries are locked in a zero-sum game with seemingly no exit.
The washington post has an article on the war games that US thinks will shape the battlefield.
If a large scale conflict begins I believe that the casualties will eclipse any war we've had for a while. A million soldiers are amassed at the border and India has a population of about a billion. This not going to be easy.
