Napoleon later said that the sixty-one-year-old Alvinczi, who had fought in Bavaria, Holland and Turkey in his long career, was the best general he had fought thus far, which is why he never said anything either positive or negative about him in his bulletins (by contrast he praised Beaulieu, Wurmser and Archuduke Charles whom he didn’t rate).
He also showed great respect to General Provera in his proclamations and Orders of the Day because he thought him the worst of the lot and hoped he wouldn’t be dismissed.

Wurmser. That name will always stick with me because of Koei's L'Empereur, where he is pretty much guaranteed to be the first enemy general faced in battle.
