Have you just been dumped?
I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.

Go Genghis!!!
Re: Round 3-Medieval Bracket
Good to see that Chinggis Khan has been given the acknowledgement he deserves, too many people place Subedei higher as a commander, forgetting that Subedei was actually subordinate to Jebe

Re: Round 3-Medieval Bracket
c'mon Belisarius. He practically re-united the entire Roman Empire for Justinian.
"Something can be done, by careful analysis, to sort out truth from propaganda and legend. But this is where the real difficulties begin, since each student inevitably selects, constitutes criteria, according to his own unconscious assumptions, social, ethical or political. Moral conditioning, in the widest sense, plays a far greater part in the matter than most people- especially the historians themselves-ever realize."

Re: Round 3-Medieval Bracket
And Gaul and Britain. Anyway, he was good but definetly not the best medieval general. He should not have two times the votes of poor Subutai

Re: Round 3-Medieval Bracket
With the meagre ressources given to him by a jealous Justinian, Belisarius was a masterful general.

Re: Round 3-Medieval Bracket
But personally, I wouldnt select him as a greatest general really. Not Subotai or even Chingis Khan, and surely not Salah-Al-Din Ibn Ayyud.
Perhaps Oda Nobunaga?

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?
Re: Round 3-Medieval Bracket
For the purposes of this poll, Nobunaga is in the Renaissance bracket.
