Who is the best TW General in the world?

[Duke of RumpyPumpy]

I was wondering, who is the best TW General in the world. There are ranking systems for other games, and of course we have all heard of folks like Napoleon, Alexander etc.

But who is really the best?

Is there a ranking system anywhere for the best MP players?

And not only for MP, but how about for shear brilliance in SP. We know there are outstanding geniuses in chess, are there any in MTW????


I want to know. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-yes.gif

We could go through the list of great MP players (or just read the old HoF awards) and find guys like Amp and Magy, Ali and Louis, Grudge and Simbol, Alrowan and Mo. Or we could look at the tourney results, see the same names.

Look through the threads here at the Org and see which general best knows the stats (Yuuki and CBR come to mind).

But that is fruitless, IMHO.

The best TW General, MP or SP, is the guy that truly enjoys the game enough to play it with style and honor, to be a good student of the game, and have a $#tload of fun at it.

That's probably an 11,000 way tie for second place, behind Elmo.

That was just an outstanding reply, Ichi--well spoken. *bows*

The best, is a question of vanity.
All depends on what your definition of beauty is.

For a less abstract answer, Ichi's on the ball.
