    I swear this guy is Alexander incarnate. I had him drive a 700-man infantry wedge against the center of a 2000-man british army(VHard/Hard) and we went through them like buckshot through a goose. Had two veteran triarii holding my flanks. I split the wedge in two and flanked the enemy army, and painted the field blue. He lost 50 men and only 23 britons were left to tell the tale.
    none

    Nidintu-Bel, "the Horseman," although he was a bit older. In his 40s, I think. 10 stars, expert attacker, cavalry commander of genius, etc., etc. He also lead a full stacked with about 20 percent gold units and the rest split about 50/50 with silver and full bronze. Had an Egyptian turncoat, mercenary captain, etc. He became faction leader before he died at a ripe old age.

    He fought more than 40 battles, I beleive, and was defeated only once. His then-young army had to withdraw after killing 872 Seleucids before running out of arrows.

    10 command a few managemnt and 10 influence. Had a great retinue and great traits except 1 minor flaw. He had minus 6-7 security points. Too bad you ca'nt assassinate your own generals, not that I would have but it would have been nice to put an asassin on him just to see how easy of a target he was

    In my Carthage campaign, I had two or three ten star generals with good influence and management. I had an 19 year old with command strength of 9 stars!
