Hahaha nice try nigger.
>>69279347
This.
Turned down the main gig in the Union to fight for family and homeland.
Should have fought for his country, but that just makes him all the more based.
>>69279347
Shit okay I'll admit that's pretty based.
General Sir John Monash GCMG, KCB, VD. Yes he was a Jew but he was a competent Jew who did his best to keep his lads alive and kicking.
>>69279664
>whined the canuck
Sun Tzu isn't any better.
Alexander the Great
I am not saying Rommel was shit, but he's a bit overrated.
Heinz Guderian was a beast.
>>69279129
>>69279664
isn't that the general who never lost a single battle during his career?
Zhukov.
>>69278930
>>69279347
Sherman :)
>>69280516
was just about to say
He and Von Seeckt are the main reasons the Reich experienced the success that they did, fathers of the Blitz
That and Hitler for listening to them as opposed to the rest of his general staff who wanted to use WWI-tier tactics

>>69280541
I wish they had a chance to fight Rommel's talent was wasted in Africa
Ferdinand Schörner, my grandpa was basically his right hand; was supposedly quite based

Yeah even though Rommel was BTFO by Patton
>>69278930
Admiral Yi.
Literally defeating Japan by himself.
>>69280583
He could only slay General Choo Choo and Major Infrastructure. Aside from that he was a depressed faggot that could barely win when morale was low on the enemy's side and he outnumbered them 2 to 1.
inb4 "FOUND THE SOUTHERN INBRED" or whatever you yankee retards call us nowadays. He was a shit general and if the south were not already losing the war of attrition he would've been repelled like all the others.
This smug mother fucker on the right.
>>69280583
>sherman will never rise from his grave to lead the crusades against the middle east
jdimsa
Are you even trying, rest of history?
>>69280516
I came here to say this.
Rommel was resented by the Staff. He was given Africa because nobody fucking cared about Africa. At the staging of Barbarossa, material for Africa started to get scarce and Rommel was not important enough to be told why. Rommel was celebrated after the war because North Africa is a long way from Poland and Thule paranoia did him in.
Steiner! Steiner! Steiner!
>>69278930
Patton, because he won.
>>69280633
Yup, not to mention Rommel made mistakes too and was a bit too reckless, thinking he could handle everything. That behaviour can help you once or twice, but it can get you fucked up.
>>69278930
Paul Hausser
You eurocucks need him to come back now more than ever
Manstein, Guderian, and Model were all superior to Rommel overall.

>>69279347
generally speaking, youre right
>>69278930
the most based general of all time
>>69281402
Remember Tobruk cunt
What von Manstein managed at Kharkov blows out anything Rommel did
>all of these pleb tier entries
>>69281418
Awful. Not even how Carlos delivered his jokes.
>no Hadrian
Come on now. He killed 580,000 rebellious kikes and kicked the rest out of Jerusalem
>>69278930

Is that an MG-42?
> inb4 Atlantic Wall
Von Heinrici >>>>>> Rommel (who was tactically awesome but less so in a strategic sense)
Manstein and Guderian fared better too, Kesselring and Model were defensively awesome too.
Napoleon was probably the greatest military mind ever, Caesar was a genius too, Aurelianus and there is a shitload of Roman generals that faced incredible enemies and defeated them.
Gustavus Adolphus and Suvorov were both incredible military geniuses, Von Hutier and Brusilov managed to partially break the trench warfare without tanks, Moltke the Elder was brilliant too.
>>69278930
>implying Rommel was even the best German general
Rommel couldn't carry Guderian's cigaretten.
>>69281034
He did superbly at the battle of Kharkov
>>69279698

Wasn't Manstein the architect of the invasion of France (1940)?

Carlos I know of some 12 step recovery programs.. there is no shame in admitting you have a problem
>>69283837
Didn't Patton actually believe he was a reincarnation of a French foot soldier who served in the Napoleonic Wars?

Did nothing wrong
Heinz Guderian,
Walter Krüger,
Patton.

Gotta go with Hannibal Barca, as overrated as he seems sometimes.

>OVER THE ALPS PERHAPS
>absolutely raped the most flexible and revolutionary army of it's time on multiple occasions while highly outnumbered with a motley assortment of soldiers for hire from different parts of Europe
>stayed in Italy for years living off of plunder and Roman tears
>literally becomes the boogeyman to roman citizens and children
>long after being defeated by Scipio he meets his nemesis in Anatolia and discusses warfare with him over wine like old friends
how can one man be so based
>>69278930
>Generals who win wars?
>Generals who successfully pull off coups?
>Generals who don't commit suicide?
IDK, Patton, Pinochet etc. Even Monty beat him.
Scipio Africanus still king for me.

Karl Döner.

the napoleon slayer, mfw someone praises napoleon.
>>69278930
That fat brittish guy who crushed rommel without any help from that crazed American general.
>>69284177
he did, and a few other lifes
>>69280706
Was waiting for this guy. My family is apparently related to him around two corners but I'm relatively disappointing in comparison. I even qualified for an officer's career but I chose the civilian life instead. The world looked different back then. In hindsight I accomplished... pretty much nothing in those civilian years. Go to uni, shitpost, have BBQs on the weekends. Meh. And now look at this mess.
Heinz Guderian. He literally wrote the book on Blitzkrieg, "Achtung – Panzer!". Overran France and Poland in such record time it spooked the higher ups into stalling. If Guderian's forces were allowed to operate independently the Allies would have been destroyed at Dunkirk, Moscow would have fell in 1941 and the pivotal loss of Kursk wouldn't even have been contested.
>>69278930
Allied Generals are automatically excluded from this thread, because they had ULTRA intel from day 1.
This is the only real answer.
