Scotland is FREE, dammit! This is a strange sort of confirmation as I have a picture of my son as my desktop, with blue magic marker which he administered all by himself all over his face; the photo name is "BraveCaleb". I also have the words 'Ego numquam pronunciare mendacium, sed ego sum homo indomitus' taped up in my cubicle. (From the movie, go figure out what it means if you really care). Ah, but to be alive and in the Highlands 700 years ago!
William Wallace You scored 75 Wisdom, 62 Tactics, 61 Guts, and 45 Ruthlessness! Like William Wallace, chances are you have no problem charging a larger, better trained, better equipped, better armed and armored English army with a band of naked drunken Scotsmen. I'm not contesting that you have balls. It's your brain function I'm worried about.
So which Warrior/General are you?

King Edward I
You scored 62 Wisdom, 81 Tactics, 55 Guts, and 41 Ruthlessness!
Or rather, King Edward the Longshanks if you've seen Braveheart. You, like Edward, are incredibly smart and shrewd, but you win at any costs.... William Wallace died at his hands after a fierce Scottish rebellion against his reign. Despite his reputation though, Longshanks had the best interests of his people at heart. But God help you if you got on his bad side.
I can't believe I only got 55 on Guts. I'm all guts, I even traded my lungs for more guts. Ahh well, those questions needed more backstory for most of them.

Julias Caesar You scored 57 Wisdom, 84 Tactics, 46 Guts, and 43 Ruthlessness! Roman military and political leader. He was instrumental in the transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire. His conquest of Gallia Comata extended the Roman world all the way to the Atlantic Ocean, introducing Roman influence into what has become modern France, an accomplishment of which direct consequences are visible to this day. In 55 BC Caesar launched the first Roman invasion of Britain. Caesar fought and won a civil war which left him undisputed master of the Roman world, and began extensive reforms of Roman society and government. He was proclaimed dictator for life, and heavily centralized the already faltering government of the weak Republic. Caesar's friend Marcus Brutus conspired with others to assassinate Caesar in hopes of saving the Republic. The dramatic assassination on the Ides of March was the catalyst for a second set of civil wars, which marked the end of the Roman Republic and the beginning of the Roman Empire under Caesar's grand-nephew and adopted son Octavian, later known as Caesar Augustus. Caesar's military campaigns are known in detail from his own written Commentaries (Commentarii), and many details of his life are recorded by later historians such as Suetonius, Plutarch, and Cassius Dio.

A Hippie You scored 68 Wisdom, 58 Tactics, 60 Guts, and 40 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 and Gerard Schroeder

I protest, this is grossly unfair. I mean... Jacques Chirac? Gerard Shroeder???? Ugh... I demand a recount.

The Terminator You scored 66 Wisdom, 50 Tactics, 62 Guts, and 36 Ruthlessness! I have decided that you best fit the personality of the Terminator from T2. Rough and tough, not too bright, and nobody's killer, but he's just as obliged to shoot you in the knee. You fit the characteristics of a special forces soldier, so in lieu of the fact that the Terminator is not a combat general..... oh screw it, you're the terminator.
Ummm... right.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:
You scored higher than 92% on Unorthodox
You scored higher than 23% on Tactics
You scored higher than 96% on Guts
You scored higher than 17% on Ruthlessness
I have to say that on at least one of those questions I disliked the choices. For instance on the one where you're running a recon mission and you run across a group of vietcong. Your only options are to kill them, let them go, or escort them back. I would probably choose the fourth option. Severely, but non-mortally wound them, hog tie them very far apart from each other, not forgetting the gags, and knock them out. Yeah it'll hurt, but they probably won't die, and it will delay anyone finding out about my group for long enough to complete my mission.

So I got tactics, but I won't ever use them. That's probably acurate.
Posted by blacwolve (Member # 2972) on :
I think I'm going to guess how I score first:
over 50% on Unorthodox around 50% or lower on Tactics 0% or close to it on Guts Incredibly high on Ruthlessness
I'll edit this post after I've taken it with my results. MY real results:
9% on Unorthodox 58% on Tactics 2% on guts 73% on Ruthlessness

I always fashioned myself more an Alexander or a Leonidas II. Only for Alexander subtract the drunkenness and general genocidal destructive mania. And for Leonidas II subtract the pederasty.

It's funny, they asked

I said "no" to both of those.
But if they had asked :
Would you kill 10 innocents to save your life? and Would you kill 10 innocents to save the life of someone you love?
I would say no to the first, yes to the second.

quote: 32. And lastly, there is a major conflict between a distinctly good country and a distinctly evil one, but it doesn't directly involve your country. IF THIS WAR CONTINUES, IT COULD DRIVE DOWN THE PRICE OF OIL AND GOODS, but at the cost of lives. The good nation asks your country for its assistance. The president/prime minister/leader of your country asks your advice on the situation.
Screw oil prices! We have a moral obligation to intervene on the behalf of the good country.
Screw the good guys! Do you have any idea how much it costs to fill up my SUV?
Screw the good guys! We can't intervene in a foreign conflict that doesn't invove us.
Screw oil prices and the good guys! I say we kill them all and burn the oil!
Did anyone else cringe when they saw this question? I found it ridiculous.

George Washington You scored 64 Wisdom, 77 Tactics, 57 Guts, and 32 Ruthlessness! Washington first served as a British officer during the French and Indian War, a war which he inadvertently helped to start. Afterwards, he resigned his post to marry Martha Dandridge Custis, a wealthy widow with two children. He was elected to the House of Burgesses and became a revolutionary leader at the outset of the American Revolution, attending both the first and second Continental Congresses. Washington was appointed Commander in Chief of the Continental Army in the American Revolutionary War (1775�83), leading the Americans to victory over the British, although sometimes in not the most scrupulous of ways. After the war, he served as president of the 1787 Constitutional Convention. Because of his central role in the founding of the United States and enduring legacy, Washington is sometimes called the "Father of his Country."
