My vot would be for Arthur Currie, being from the commonwealth, he is overlooked in Et games and just in general knowledge, sad because he really deserves his spot for his victory at Vimy adn the 100 days offensive, he was the one that showed canadians were not all to be overlooked and some here in Canada say that his victories helped create parts of the Canadian identity just as much as Isaac Brock

Rommel and Richtofen? I mean, At least Lettow-Vorbeck was a Colonel. Rommel was a first looey. Richtofen was... just no. My favorite was Tadamichi Kuribayashi, too.  |

He would have if Conrad had been able to keep strong comms with the Deutch. i guess you mean "Deutschen". In my opinion he was one of the worst Generals in History. |

Clausewitz Conrad von Hotzendorf wasn't a bad planner, as a matter of fact, several historians took a look at his battle plans and estimated that they would have worked. The problem is he always planned as if he had the infrastructure of the Germans, not the defunct and semi corrupt Austrian-Hungarian one. Also he was a warmonger, pushing several times fro war with Serbia
