Is a general's win-loss record on the battlefield is the best gauge of measuring greatness as a military leader?

During the American Civil War, but it is also true in most other military contexts, a general's win-loss record on the battlefield is, indeed, the best gauge for measuring his greatness as a military leader. It remains true that many excellent generals can be found among those who lost more times than they won, mostly because battles are not won solely through generalship: supply, morale, and political considerations may also have a decisive effect on battle-results.


What was the Number of casualties of the crusaders?

Hopefully someone can give you an actual number, but remember something: Numbers were HEAVILY exaggerated by medieval writers. For example, two armies meet in battle with 5,000 men each. They fight and Army A loses 1000 while Army B loses 3000. Having won, the writers of Army A speak of how they met 30000 enemy in battle and slew all but a handful of them for a loss of 300 of their own. That is a typical synopsis of a battle by a medieval writer. Similarly, the use of 30000 and 300 was not a coincidence, since they loved to use the number 3 due to the Trinity. Simply put, numbers are impossible to gauge before the modern era.

What is the correct gauge for electric guitar strings?

There is no "correct" gauge for guitar strings. Use whichever gauge is comfortable for you. Higher gauge strings will ring louder and longer, but sustain and volume aren't as much of an issue with electric guitars as they are for acoustic guitars. If you're really unhappy with the sound of your current strings, try another brand or move to a higher gauge once you build up some finger strength.

What do the different gauge numbers mean with regard to the longevity of steel caskets?

The strength, durability, and longevity of steel caskets depends first of all on the quality and thickness of the metal sheets used. The United States Standard Gauge for the thickness of metal sheets is based on the number of sheets required to total one inch. The gauge number (ga) informs about the thickness of the steel sheets in such a way that the lower the gauge number, the thicker the steel.
