    I'd go for Alexander the Great. What a hero.

    Kinda trumps your hero, because my hero was your hero's hero. Hahahaha.

    I also have a lot of respect for Genghis Khan. Achieved the same as Alexander but in reverse.

    Arthur Wellesley, first Duke of Wellington, Viscount of Talavera, Duke of Vittoria, Count of Ciudad Rodrigo and Commander-in-Chief of all of His Britannic Majesty's Forces in the Peninsular, is my military hero. As for actual heroic deeds, I'd say my username, Henry V.

    Then I'll go for Achilles your hero's hero!

    why does evrybody forget Charlesmagne. they're talking about Nap. while he never succeeded like Charles.

    Who I also greatly admire are those Tibettans who are still fighting for their freedom and all the others who are oppressed (spelling?) by the chinese.

    I also admire all volunteers who help people in foreign countrys: leaving their wealth, freinds, family and homes behind and go helping people without earning money or just enough to buy food and stuff.

    and ofcourse all other forgotten hero's

    The ordinary American Soldier
    Then I'd rather say all soldiers who fight for freedom, justice and their country (except those cowardly terrorists)

    Hannibal (not the cannibal), one of the best generals of all time.
    you must admit he is quite intellegent and he has a lot of talent in the books but I just wouldn't feel comfortable when I'd be in the same room with him.
    I must say the writer did a pretty good job. I'm reading Hannibal at the moment. I've seen the movies now I'm reading the books.

    looks like this will be a popular thread. For once i did something that was popular. I think if this becomes popular i might just have a heart attack. And that deserves a Root Beer (i am too young to have a beer).

    well done lad
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    I'm my own hero.

    Well, if I must. Napoleon Buonoparte ranks highly, as does Alexander. Augustus I respect more than Julius. Several others as well - Sertorius in Spain was amusing, Aetius, Belisarius - I could go on and on.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?
