Demandred and Moridin almost exclude themselves because of the low IQ of this military blunder.
Moridin, if you recall, got himself beaten by LTT/Rand multiple times. Demandred doesn't seem to have done noticeably better - we don't have tales of any grand defeats handed by him to LTT and I assume it's because he would have lost a direct engagement. It's a little hard for me to consider any of the Forsaken brilliant at this point. Oh well.
To paraphrase that Shania Twain song - "So you wrote some books? That don't impress me much."
You don't even think LTT was impressive. Your standards are too high.

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