in the dominion war would have been great..

Admiral Ross seem to rely on sisko too much.

now with the Icky war, how useful would he be?

    Probably not useful at all. For one thing, he was an admiral in Star Wars, which was a long time ago, in a galaxy far away. for another, he would not know Starfleet/Romulan/Klingon tech at all so would not be able to command effectivly.

    If he was familiar with the tech and the tactics, Thrawn might be a pain in the butt for the Iconians. But he would still need to study Iconian art.

    Going by the skirmish war we have. I say he would kick butt and ready to move on. This is not a war at all.

    Eh... style of war asside... we're only seeing what our characters are involved in. Not every battle going on. And I wouldn't call the fiasco in Tau Dewa with the Heralds a skirmish. That was a full on Blitzkrieg.

    Well first he'd need to familiarize himself with his foes .
    But then again after reading the Blogs and watching a few hours worth of silent movies of the Heralds, I'm sure he'd go "this is it ???"
    But then again , that's what you get when your foes are caricatures of villainy.

    This. I'm reminded of Mara Jade's speech to Exar Kun in I, Jedi by Michael Stackpole:
    MARA JADE: Is that the best you've got? Babies crying and ghosts whispering lies from beyond the grave? The Dark Lord of the Sith I knew would have been ashamed to use such tactics.

    EXAR KUN: What? Who dares?

    MARA JADE: Who cares, more correctly. Horn here was worked over by the Empire's best and never broke. Isard would've had you digitized, analyzed, and discarded without a second thought, and she wasn't even Force-sensitive. Darth Vader would've found you amusingly quaint, and the Emperor... well... The Emperor succeeded in destroying the Jedi, so he'd see you as the very definition of failure!

    I'll take a Skrain Dukat or a Weyoun, or an Admiral Leyton, over any ten of Cryptic's villains.
