You don't even think LTT was impressive. Your standards are too high.
My standards are high because I think I base them on real people.
I don't believe it when someone says "That person is the best person in the entire world!" because I embrace mortality and the experience that comes through joyfully taking part in the sufferings of the world. Uh, that sounds poetic.
What I mean to say is I base my standards on believability, and I frankly can't believe it when someone just tells me that an individual is a paragon of perfection. I'd rather read about humans rather than heroes or gods.

Good points! Also, these "generals" haven't actually fielded any troops

But as individuals they are meant to be deadly too

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

Birgitte's not a soldier though.

She says she's not, but so does Mat.

Mat's not a soldier, either - he's a general

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