Hello all,

I thought that I'd introduce the mildly exciting game of 'Name that Historical Figure'. I thought this would be the most appropriate section to post this thread as it will take some brain racking!

It must only be me who finds this to be a good game. Too long on historical forums, methinks.

Oh. You should see some others. They're more vague than this. It was Gebhard von Blucher, Prussian General. I'll post another... quite easy one.
