She says so herself, if I recall correctly. She's more like the rogue adventurer type.
She does quite well running an army. Just because she doesn't feel "heroic" doesn't mean her skill set has really changed. RJ makes it pretty obv that the best heroes are just those doing what they think they have to.
Are women really bad generals?

Well, yeah. They're knowledgable and deadly in person. Generalship doesn't come into it.

Birgitte is too cautious to be better than an adequate tactician.
