Well, one received a crossbow bolt in his bowels courtesy of his disaffected dwarf son, while the other is about to kick some serious Frey/Bolton,Targ and finally snow demon ass...

It's not that hard to speculate who the better man was.

are they pretty much the same character? who is the better tactitian , who is more fit to be king regardless of who has the right to sit the iron throne and also how are they different

They have similar personalities but Stannis is burdened by scruples, while Twyin can't even spell the word.

Tywin also has a strong sense of family while Stannis hates his family and is willing to kill his brother for more power... oh I mean 'justice'...

Nonsense. Stannis has an indelible sense of family. He joined his brother's rebellion even though he swore an oath to the king, why? because Robert was his older brother and he always did his duty. He took Dragonstone as his seat, even though Storm's End was by right's his, why? because Robert was his older brother and he always did his duty. Stannis killed Renly because Renly betrayed his family by declaring himself king and not declaring for Stannis. He had every right, and it was justice.

Oh and as far as tactics/military prowess between Tywin/Stannis is concerned, Stannis has more victories to his name, battles won where he almost always has a numerical inferiority too. Tywin's greatest victory was a deceit and subsequent pillage of King's Landing. Hardly Hannibal's victory at Cannae.
