Results for the March General Madness

[Marshal Murat]

As I'm sure everyone who participated well knows, Alexander the Great beat out Hannibal Barca by 3 votes.

Yes, three more posters could have tipped the scales of victory into a camp that I favor. In any case, those are the results.

I hope to start another series, with more generals from a wider spectrum. Manstein, Guderian, Rommel, Jellicoe, Scheer, Frederick the Great.

One thing though; don't mix naval and land commanders. They really can't be compared together. That's one of the essential things about it, they have to be comparable. Eg. comparing Alexander to Guderian would be very hard due to the very different situations and conditions they faced.

Yep. Next time you should really try to get the generals into better catagories.

Maybe something like 2 people from the same general era face off? For example 2 ancient generals or 2 World War era Generals, or something?

Well you can't even compare Hannibal and Alexander, they never fought eachother. All you do is saying: I like A over B

[Innocentius]

I agree with CountArach that generals of a similar period in history should be compared, not antiquity vs. 19th century and so on.
