Without any irony, this was actually a great idea for a thread, among us warmongers;)

So here goes, starting easy...

1. Narva 1700
2. Helsingborg 1710 (and this is a really cool battle for all you military history buffs out there...)
3.Warszawa 1656
4.Wittstock 1636
5.Jankov 1645
6.Prag 1648 (OK, no real battle, but who lead the "stealth attack")
7..Juutas 1809
8. Breitenfeldt 1631
9. Lund 1676
10. ...and Helsingborg again, since it really is a cool battle...:)

I don't know much about 17th century warfare, but #1 is Peter the Great. Or did the Swedes win that one. Damn...can't remember...too early.
