Why the Rommel comparison? He was hardly the rabid, bloodthirsty soldier like this Coriolanus guy sounds like.
Allied leaders even respected him as well.
That's actually why I made the comparison, @ 2. Coriolanus is hot-tempered but canny on the battlefield and wins the respect of his opponents. (Which is how he wound up conspiring with Aufidius to attack Rome.)
@Brendan, I guess I get what you're going for, but I was kinda thrown off by the Rommel comparison too, since C's anger problems were what you emphasized in the body of the review.
Allied leaders even respected him as well.
