All of the Forsaken are incredibly strong in the Power. All weaker darkfriend AS were killed in the War of Power by these people. As individuals they are considered to be deadly too.
Balthamel, Moghedien and Asmodean's presence suggests that they just happened to occupy the upper most echelon of the ranking system at the time - there were probably stronger Forsaken channelers around that were either stupid, low on the totem pole or total failures leading to being mindtrapped or etc.

Are women really bad generals?

Good points! Also, these "generals" haven't actually fielded any troops

Birgitte is too cautious to be better than an adequate tactician.
