The problem is, Gustavus Adolphus is on topic. The original post said Genghis was the best, and we are meant to be discussing these four conquerors. The problem was, GA was being an utter imbecile about Napoleon and Alexander.
Anyway, I think I've said all that an A-Level (which didn't focus on his wars at all) and some minor research allows me to say about Napoleon, really. Good general, did some important reforms, spread the French Revolution's ideas (possibly by accident), was somewhat authoritarian with secret police and his centralization and his old fashioned law code, careers open to talent. That's about it, unless GA keeps spouting twaddle. I'm sure there are people who can discuss his military stuff in greater detail than I can, so, ah... well, I don't know, really.
