I'm hardly an expert on the matter, but there are plenty of conflicting opinions. The fact remains Wellington was essentially undefeated as a general, in India, Spain, and finally Belgium. He was a defensive specialist, whereas Napoleon was an offensive specialist, and when they came head-to-head, Wellington defeated Napoleon's "immortal" guard unit using the same tactics he had used against everyone else.
