Ok, whenever he has shot down my theories he has given good arguments for his side. I haven't read every one of his posts so I may miss a few things.

Besserwisser is a proper name for him. ;) Always telling people they are wrong. Faugh! Ought to have a visit by Cadsuane (from fiction land...) - would straighten him out. ;)

[Mr Ares]

It sounds rather hostile.

You've never seen me be hostile. This is happy.

 

In the thread you're talking about I beat you into the ground with logic

Hah! Good one.

 

Anyone who asserts that numbers do not matter in war has no understanding of it.  You still maintain that, ergo your command of war is seriously lacking.

Actually, I never said any such thing. I said it was an advantage, in fact. Try actually reading what I write, for a change.

 

Wow, I don't even know where this came from, but I am putting in a good word for Ares here.

 

He may get on your nerves with the "my view is always the right one" attitude, but he always gives good reasons for it.

Always is definitely an exaggeration.  :)

Understatement, not exaggeration.
