Don't know why White Horse should be more expensive, unless it was some kind of special version. Ballantines is definetley the better brand, Jameson is better than Ballantines though I think. I take it with loads of ice and soda water.

I think Wellington was better than Napoleon. He knew when to cut his loses and when to attack. Napoleon didnt and that was his weak spot.

Napolean knew when to attack. That's how he won Austerlitz. Waterloo was a result of poor communications. If both sides had infinite numbers, Napolean would ...

I don't understand why George Washington isn't here... he's won many battles with odds against him. However, being that he's not on there and I don't want to waste my vote on "other"....

I say napoleon. He was a very brilliant general, except that whole Moscow bit...

In that case Wellington ...

Pol Pot added a few mill, so did Mao after 1945, then 1 mill in Rwanda. What do you guys think about mass murders in our time ?

Heinz Guiderien was the brains behind the Blitzkrieg thing, Hitler let his early successes in Poland and France go to his head. He didn't see it's limitations, over-extended supply. Stalingrad was where it fell down..

Good point, Guderian was very good. von Manstein applied his blitzkrieg tactics ...
