Expect the guns to be fully operational. The Ottomans maintained a 300-year old siege cannon and used it to help thwart the Royal Navy in the early 1800's. Never underestimate your enemy.

Also, expect the enemy to pull an ace or more out of his sleeve. You never know what kind of weird **** the top commanders on either side have sitting on the back burners.
If NK wants war, what do they have in place to defend themselves against repeated counterattack? What are their deepest of defenses? They don't have much as far as we can see, but what they do have is worth holding on to. And we will eventually take it as long as the doves don't get up in a bind about it. Thoughts?
