Radu Custom Lord

Yeees fam. I have had some map ideas for Radu and am extremely curiuous to how he would play. Thanks for the mod. It'll be cool to see your take on him.

My first impressions are...well interesting to say the least.

I didn't get to play much yet as I saw this late so this is kind of biased but I noticed that he is too similar to Lancelot. He didn't seem very strong and judging by your SHC mods I think it would have been more fitting to perhaps give him more variety such as macemen, pikemen, maybe even knights. I saw swordsmen but again...similar. 

A big question I have is could you have inserted his campaign lines in this mod? I can think of some lines that would work if you cut out some dialogue like "Those walls won't hold me back!" for a siege 2. Or something like "I will embrace you upon my blade."

The mass production was cool but I noticed a lot of weak units whilst sieging his castle. This isn't inherently "bad" but some earlier attacks would have made it more interesting. However considering I also had Vlad parallel to him on the map and Vlad didn't even attack maybe I just attacked too soon?

I will try tomorrow again and give an updated review but first impressions just seem okay. Maybe if I gave him some more time to develop he would be more formidable?

At the time of review it is late so I can look into this with more detail tomorrow.

There was a bit of an issue with the voice lines for Radu, but it's fixed now. He should be taunting the player with his campaign lines now.

In terms of military he should be using following units:

• Raiding - Men at arms and archers
• Defence - Macemen and crossbowmen
• Siege - Pikemen, crossbowmen and knights (originally swordsmen but replaced in the new upload)

If anything else comes up or there are any issues just let me know.
