1a. Alexander the Great - enough ****in said!!!! He set the standard for greatness.
1b. Caius Julius Caesar (Read his Gallic Commentaries. He knew how to handle those Germanic barbarians. Too bad he didnt wipe them out completely)
2. Napoleon (learned from the mistakes of Caesar. Although he had a fatal flaw like his hero)
3. Georgy Zhukov - We all know the Russians were the real heroes of WWII
4. Ulysses S Grant (weak on tactics, but winning is all that matters in wars)
5. Genghis Khan - on sheer size of conquest, but it sure as hell didnt last very long
honorable mention: Erwin Rommel, Hannibal Barca, Tecumseh Sherman, Scipio Africanus (defeated Hannibal of Carthage), Robert E Lee

How about Hannibal? William the Bastard? Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington?
Can we count naval Admirals too? Because if we can then it's Nelson.
