Vlad Enemies Lord Pack
By Sir Windows
This lord pack replaces three existing lords in custom skirmish with three enemy lords from Vlad's evil campaign.
Transylvanian Lord
This lord replaces Arthur. The Transylvanian likes building a large and well fortified castle. He might not be the fastest attacker, but his siege armies are strong, and he uses the round-table to its fullest extent.
Radu
Vlad's brother replaces Lancelot. He is a formidable foe and an aggressive attacker. His castle is small and quickly finished, as such his raids and sieges commence rather soon.
The Holy Knights
These crusaders hail from across Europe and replace Dietrich. Their castle is simple, and they despise all kinds of magic & witchcraft. One shouldn't take these knights lightly, as their industry and siege craft is unmatched.
General Hunyadi
Protector of the Hungary, regent of the kingdom, General Hunyadi replaces Siegfried. He is a master defender and deadly skirmisher, seeking to undermine his enemies before they can become a threat.
Vlad & Mordred
These lords are not replaced by anyone. They have received minor updates though. Just as in the campaign, Vlad will now use predominantly werewolves instead of Saxons.

I'll probably edit this later but first impressions are fantastic.
I like how similar the Holy Knight's castle looks to Sentinel's from SC: DE. His siege consisting of macemen and archers was an interesting choice, but not unwelcome.
The Transylvanian Lord having Beowulf's lines works and I love how his castle is very reminiscent of the campaign. Unfortunately as of the first impression I killed him before he could recruit any knights-however he did briefly recruit Merlin whilst I was sieging.
I question the granary placement though. On one hand it's cool that the granary is inside the castle, but generally I find that a very inefficient method that really only buys opponents a little more time. From where I see the
Holy Knight could probably fair better with his granary to the east of his castle as that's where most food buildings are anyways.
Overall though: You did excellent as always.

Thank you for the rundown! I'm glad you like the new lords.
The Transylvanian lord is very slow. He has a very expensive castle, a round table and a church. I'm considering reworking his economy and siege in the future. He's just too sluggish right now.
Unfortunately, I can't control where the AI builds a granary. It's programmed to build somewhere east of the keep. Due to the cross shaped design of the castle, it ends up inside.
Also there's a chance that Siegfried will be replaced by another new lord in the future.
