As the title clearly says, who do you think is the best military general of all time in terms of superiority, not moral views. You can give more than 1.
I'd have to say;
Alexander the Great
Hannibal
Napolean(sp)
Sun Tzu, though he is more of a talker
Genghis Khan
I'm trying to gather a few good military generals for my 5th map to date, which will involve military tactics.
DuGalle
Roosevelt
Washington
Octavian
[sub]Ivan the Terrible.[/sub]
Zapp Brannigan, liek he defeated all them killbots!
and, I guess Mayor McCheese is second...
Rommel
Hannibal
Alexander the Great
the 2 captains from master and commander
Hannibal, Alexander the Great, Ceaser, Genghis Khan, and Napoleon Bonaparte.
Jimmy Raynor.
Or Napoleon.
Infested Kerrigan kills all.
Jimmy Raynor wasn't a general, nor was DuGalle. Infested kerrigan isn't even close! Learn the game you love so much!
Duke!
It's my fault, but 'generals' was too specific - I'll settle with any military commander. For my map, I'll only use non-fiction names, but of course I'd hate to steal your fun naming fictional commanders.
Vorian Atreides, in that case.
Maybe it's just that I'm missing something, but during all of Starcraft Duke doesn't seem to be a good general , I agree, however, Kerrigan isn't that good of a tactician, she is more of a mirror of Mengsk - a manipulator. When Tassadar, Raynor, and Zeratul are running around on Char her forces are constantly whittled down in ambushes she does nothing to prevent.
That's just because you don't get to see him in action with his Alpha Squad
But really, I was just pointing out that the others weren't generals, and duke was. However, you've ruined that point now... so...

I reckon Hitler was pretty ingenious, definitely near the top, although his actions and ideas were widely disapproved (and that he was more than just a military commander).
He was a complete idiot. Attack Russia before beating England? What a stupid idea that was.
Anyone who attacks russia in the winter is an idiot. (Unless its antarctica
)
I would have to say, Amilio Aguinaldo, simply because he's the coolest person ever.
Leading an invasion into your own country, only to kick out all your own forces and free your country is pretty cool.
