100 Greatest Generals!
As featured in the March 2008 issue of ACG - YOU can help determine who is the greatest military commander of all time in our forum-based competition. This competition has just wrapped up, with nearly 100 votes being cast both for and against each of the 32 generals. The finals paired up an unlikely General Grant vs. a titan of military leadership - Napoleon. It got ugly before the end...with Grant conceding the crown to the Emperor himself. See how it all played out here. |

Now that we have a new look to our site, we felt it worth taking a moment to look back. Have you been around long enough to remember the older versions? Stop in and comment!
