    Dum dum dum i have cum to save this thread!...

    They are all military men so this is easy cuz the purpose is just to put up questions...


    1. I am arguably one of the greatest generals of all time. I was very insipred by a book called "Homer's iliad", so insipred i would keep the book under my pillow every night even on my campaigns. They also say i am bisexual but them.

    2. I went against the strongest people in that time and defeated them with cunning and revolutionary tactics. But in the end i was unable to accomplish my goal and we were defeated. I was exiled and took refuge in syria, then in bythnia(pardon spelling) but they found me out so i took poison before they got to me.

    3. I was a great general and politician by all definition. My third name which was then used as a title of power probably meant "curly" at that time.

    Well done.

    Edit: I am not sure if you are aware of this Ariovistus, but it's your turn to ask questions now. Just making it clear.

    I'll go ahead and post if that's ok.


    1. I am a Soviet general who played a major role in Operation Bagration. Some say that Stalin said I could "stick to my guns", as I refused to change my military plan despite his insistance.

    2. I am a highly-renowned field marshall who is known for iron discipline and stern behaviour in the field. I did however actually cry at the sight of my troops dying on the walls in a costly siege I lost.

    3. I defended England in its earlier days against Vikings and other enemies. I was considered the first great king of England.

    4. I turned the Kingdom of the Franks into the Frankish Empire. I was said to have "defined the Middle Ages".

    Under the rather spiffing patronage of Justinian.
    Grandson of some fellow named the Black Prince.
