Military History Thread: 5 Greatest Military Wins/Strategy/Manuevers

[CharlieDontSurf]

Ok, I wasn't a history major but it seems like there are several knowledgable posters on here who have a solid grasp of this topic.

What would be the 5 greatest military wins/strategies/manuevers etc...and why were they so successful/brilliant.

D-Day?

Alexander the Great vs. Darrius at the Battle of Issus...30-35K vs. 250 to 500K.



Anyways...I couldn't really think of the perfect format for this...
5 greatest military leaders and their greatest military accomplishment?? etc
5 greatest battles...what made them special??etc

So I'll leave it up to you guys...
