>>t. butthurt limey
Daniel Watson
>being this butt blasted
Subutai managed to defeat Chinese, fellow nomads, Russians, Persians, Germans and Eastern Europeans.
He won sieges and open field battles across the world in different terrain. He kept at it so long that by the end he was too fat to ride a horse and had Chinese slaves carry him on a pavilion and he still beat the Europeans.
Nolan Lewis
Don't you pay me any mind im just posting the greatest of all great generals.
Mason Williams

Matthew Peterson

>be hailed as the greatest of all great generals after your death
Logan Brooks

I don't know how is this even a question.
Hannibal, Caeser or Napoleon. Any other answer is just wrong.
Lucas Hughes
>le "cross the alps with elephants and get btfo later" man
Wyatt Bell
Hannibal never lost a battle in Italy.
Asher Walker
Bai Qi fought in 100+ battles and never lost once.
Jayden Clark

Luis Clark
All American generals in these threads are memes.
Jayden Sanchez
YU WUZ SAYIN
Justin Jackson
Who?
Adrian Sullivan
>greatest general ever
Saying this is like saying “Who’s the greatest artist ever?” and then comparing Shakespeare to Da Vinci.
Gengis Khan, Alexander the Great, Eisenhower, etc... it’s impossible to compare them. All of them dealt with different scenarios using different resources and ideas
Colton Nelson
Fuck you ya French fat bastard, don’t you have some Indians to kiss
Justin Butler
>Eisenhower
Slipping him in next to temujin and alexander. Great job user. A hearty kek
Henry Rivera
Trust no one, not even your emperor
Angel Morgan
>outside of China
>implying the Chinese could hold a candle to Alexander's greatness
Jace Thomas
>implying Philip II of makedon could deal with 1,000,000,000 angry China men in boats
Xavier Reyes
>not a single russian general
you filthy westerners
here's a cool guy though (lucullus)
Wyatt Clark
>implying alexander would find a way to set the boats on fire and slauhhter the ones that land
>implying the numbers aren't inflatted by the imperial historians
Mason Campbell
excellent troll
Benjamin Gonzalez

Ian Taylor
wow he seems like a shoe-in for RDJ to play in a movie
Jose Gomez
Nevsky and Brusilov are close contenders for the first place, too.
Donskoy, Kutuzov, Bagration (tho he was Georgian) and others are cool as well
Josiah Ramirez

>When the Duke of Wellington, victor of Waterloo, learned that Scott had succeeded against alarming odds in capturing Mexico City, he proclaimed Scott "the greatest living general"
Jace Hill
>implying 1,000,000 men could be mobilized for a single battle in ancient times
Dominic Ramirez
Bagration was probably the most chad general in the Russian army
Sebastian Nelson
>muh anaconda strategy
Adam Perry

Sebastian Long
Daniel Hall
A little edgy in choice of appearance, but a great commander nonetheless

Colton Bennett
There's nothing edgy about it.
Mason Rivera
>Frogs
>Happily spread their assholes open to Germany because they were too scared to fight
>Bongs
>Told Germany to fuck off and beat their asses when they tried shit
Yeah, nah. The French are worthless pussies and they always have been.
Jace Price
Bongs hid on their island every time someone powerful dominated Europe until some other power rescued them.
Ian Richardson
t. has never picked up a history book
Angel Moore
>no one has yet posted about the great Admiral Yi
Jose Moore
Was going to post this saw it, and posted Admiral Yi instead
Jose Sullivan
Imagine an ascetic general, who dressed modestly, ate simple meals with his troops, donated almost all his money to build schools, spoke few words, refused to mingle with politicians more than necessary, rejected every offer of power laid at his doorstep including the chance to become dictator of a country.
Imagine a general who crossed the Alps just like Hannibal, only these alps were almost twice as tall, and his army was built from scratch, with an entire town melting iron fences, chains, pots, pans and every metal that was not nailed to the ground, to make weapons. Imagine him prevailing in almost every battle he led, against larger forces, and storming the largest city on the continent with a sea expedition. Imagine him using feign tactics and dressing cacti with surplus army uniforms to make his force seem larger than it was.
Imagine him directly liberating three countries (and indirectly an entire continent) and asking nothing in return.
Imagine him going into voluntary exile in Paris to avoid spilling the blood of his countrymen in the civil war that followed.
Imagine him being virtually unknown outside of South America.
Imagine Jose de San Martin.
Jonathan Garcia
Britain is by far the most overrated military force on the planet even ahead of China or Russia.
Leo Peterson
>Oh shit I can't provide an argument. I know, I'll just link to these wiki articles that'll show em!
Charles Hughes
I think you just cant figure it out because of your inbred genetics. Britain (excluding their navy) has always been pathetic. Letting the big boys do the real fighting.
Isaac Gutierrez
>it d...doesn't count... b...because you only won because you exploited geography and the terrain to gain an advantage
Thomas James
Extremely underrated, even more knowing that he basically invented the pike and shoot combat formation.
Elijah Carter
>you will never see an all-out battle between Turenne, Marlborough, Eugen of Savoy, Spinola and Gustavus Adolphus for the title of 17th century goat
Grayson Howard
Hunter Rodriguez
How dare a country play to its strengths
Michael Young
This lad here deserves more recognition.
>On 14 August 1385, at Aljubarrota he led 6,500 volunteers to victory against a Castilian force of over 30,000, thus ending the threat of annexation
>Not wanting to give the enemy room to manoeuvre, John I and his supreme general took the offensive and raided several Castilian towns, defeating once again a much larger Castilian army at the Battle of Valverde. He continued to watch out for Juan I of Castile, until his death in 1390. When hostilities ended, he gave the bulk of his wealth to the veterans.
Luke Garcia
>not getting the point
>still comparing people who lived thousands of years a part
Boy, either you're retarded, or that point just flew right over your head.
Cameron Anderson
Logan Rivera
He's not a general you fucking retard
Logan Adams
He was a general for the large part of his career before he became a naval officer you brainlet.
Chase Reed
Asian warfare was a battle between wooden castles so he was
