Give it a shot and let me know if it's working as intended or has any conflicts. I hated him too

Gasp! Downloading right away - I'll report back as soon as I've tested it. Thank you so much for making this!

I've taken to playing FotS in total silence. As much as I love the music and other audio, I just can't live with Bubba's shouting. Disabling all audio feels less strange than disabling voices only.

There are actually a number of alternate tracks present that never play for different triggers, which would make the Aide de Camp vastly less irritating. There's 4 others for troops routing in old S2 that don't contain "shameful display", for example. Either that's bugged or they needed to save audio memory.

It would be cool if your advisor's voice changed in FotS based on the presence of different foreign nationals (and didn't suck

).

My test battle passed in battle silence, and lo, tranquillity was restored to my house and peace to my soul. Thank you for making this.

The original announcer is still present for Sengoku and RotS battles, in case anyone was wondering. The mod isn't a choice between all or none.

Ah, good to hear (pun!)

At some point I can put one together for S2 and RotS and maybe a combined pack, if there's any interest and someone else hasn't already.
