I haven't heard of most of them. What about George S. Patton? or Charles de Gaulle, or others. From that list ive only heard of Montgomery, Rommel, and Eisenhower.

Did you hear about Yamomoto and Zhukov?

Admiral Yamomoto has planned/commanded attack on PearlHarbour.
The marshal Zhukov commanded the defence of the Moscow and he planned/commanded the counteroffensive near Kursk, for exaple.

Ive heard of them, i just would of thought it better to put up a bunch of very good important generals, one from each main country of WW2.

Rokossovsky played a significant part in the battle of Kursk :)

Any list of general will be unachieved. All can not be complacent :)

Rommel by far for me, in the desert there is nothing so you have to execute perfect tactics to stay alive, that man made a lot of so little and i have a lot of respect for him.

Agreed.
Zhukov's bad point was that he don't really care about soldiers.
And Rommel's bad point was he can't wait.
I hope you can understand me.
