How will Battle commence?

Something occurred to me last night as I listened to the middle movt. of
Bruckner's 9th symphony at the Royal Festival Hall, London.

If there was a "war" between the two sides let's call them - Voldemort's and
Dumbledore's - how would this be carried out?  With the wizarding world
somewhat backward in some areas (quills, ink etc.,) they are far ahead in
others (portkeys, floo powder, wands) how would such a conflict be waged?

It seems that in the past conflict Voldemort governed by a reign of terror
with many afraid to confront and fight. Now, with Harry having survived and
shown Voldemort is not (quite) indestructible, will a different sort of
battle be fought? Many assume it will end with Harry and Voldemort going
one-to-one;  with some proposing Dumbledore will die on the way; and/or
Snape coming to a sticky end or becoming a hero depending on whether you are
of the S.I.N.G school (Snape Is Not Guilty) or a more vengeful version of
L.O.L.L.I.P.O.P.S. (see Tabouliani for in depth explanations and
discussions).

Will it boil down to groups of wizards fighting hand to hand (a la GoF in
the churchyard when chasing Harry) or will it be more organised and subtle?
