He's like General Burnside, just without the charm.<br /><br />But in dealing with this list, Hill would be my pick, but not likely the pick of the lords. Graham or Baird would be more likely. Graham has the experience and I think perhaps seniority? I do remember reading about this in one of Oman's volumes about who was considered next due to who got the generalship commission first, though can't recall which commander it was. Beresford is good but his duties in dealing with the Portuguese would appear to tie him down I think.<br /><br />Uxbridge and Paget are good considerations but Paget isn't on the field and I look forward to his capture later in the year (assuming you continue the campaign). We don't have much field experience to judge these two off of but in British commands, politics is more than who is the best.Vive l'Empereurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00785173543457314763noreply@blogger.com
