Erwin Rommel
You scored 51 Wisdom, 82 Tactics, 43 Guts, and 24 Ruthlessness!
You're most comparable to German Field Marshall Erwin Rommel in the fact that you have very strong tactical skills and morales. However, Rommel lost in Africa despite the fact that his logicians had told him time and time again that the English were planning to shut off his supply lines. Rommel lost North Africa, because the English shut off his supply lines. The moral of this story... Listen to your logicians. And guard your damn supply lines! But that being said, Rommel was one of the greatest strategic and tactical minds of our day. Had he overrun Egypt (which was a definite possibility at the time), World War II may have turned out significantly differently then it did.

Other leaders like yourself include Patton and MacArthur.

Unfortunatly you have to register, but I just made up some stats out of my mind and it worked - well, maybe someone called 'dummy' might get some weird emails [:'(]

Chief Sitting Bull
You scored 51 Wisdom, 65 Tactics, 64 Guts, and 32 Ruthlessness!
You'd make a decent guerilla fighter. You are a tactical genius and you have the balls to back it up with some follow through. But that being said, you are most likely unwilling to torture an enemy soldier for information, because through all of the thick buffalo hides and that huge f*cking headdress, you have a heart.
Chief Sitting Bull rose to prominence in the Sioux warfare against the whites and the resistance of the Native Americans under his command to forced settlement on a reservation led to a punitive expedition. In the course of the resistance occurred the Native American victory on the Little Bighorn, where George Armstrong Custer and his men were defeated and killed on June 25, 1876. Sitting Bull and some of his followers escaped to Canada, but returned (1881) on a promise of a pardon and were settled on a reservation. In 1885 he appeared in Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, but his championship of the Native American cause was not at an end. He encouraged the Sioux to refuse to sell their lands, and he advocated the ghost dance religion. He was killed by Native American police on a charge of resisting arrest.

Other leaders like yourself include: Francis Macon

General Custer

You scored 58 Wisdom, 57 Tactics, 65 Guts, and 55 Ruthlessness!

You're reckless... a little like Custer. Make sure you know what you're up against before you charge into battle. But, that being said, Custer was one of the more successful generals of his day. He was a graduate of West Point and one of the more senior officers in the Union army. Custer had a distinguished career until his untimely demise at Little Bighorn.

I don't know if I agree with this...

Before I took the test I guessed I would be George McClellan...and wha-llaa...


George McClellan
You scored 73 Wisdom, 65 Tactics, 40 Guts, and 39 Ruthlessness! Like General McClellan, you're smart enough to know what tactical decisions to make. However, the problem with McClellan is that he could never sprout the balls to act on his information, and in the end, that's why Geoge McClellan is only a sidenote in the history books.

THIS is funny:

A Hippie
You scored 58 Wisdom, 35 Tactics, 24 Guts, and 14 Ruthlessness!
You know nothing about tactics or war. You are docile and cowardly and the mere thought of violence is enough to make you wet yourself. Hate to break it to you, but chances are very good that you're not General material.... not even BAD General material. Hell you're probably not even a productive member of society. Why are you even here? Don't you have a peace pipe to smoke, or a war to protest or something? So here's to you and to whatever naive country that lets you vote....
Leaders who share your beliefs include: Jaques Chirac, Vladimir Putin and Gerard Schroeder

Great Test [:D]

Here's my rather disappointing results.

George McClellan
You scored 66 Wisdom, 61 Tactics, 31 Guts, and 39 Ruthlessness!
Like General McClellan, you're smart enough to know what tactical decisions to make. However, the problem with McClellan is that he could never sprout the balls to act on his information, and in the end, that's why Geoge McClellan is only a sidenote in the history books.

And....

You scored higher than 63% on Wisdom
You scored higher than 48% on Tactics
You scored higher than 1% on Guts
You scored higher than 17% on Ruthlessness

And if you like Tests like these you can try some of a more Philosophical nature below. Battleground God and Morality Play are pretty interesting [:D]
