    Default William Wallace...

    I'm playing as the Irish and just now managed to get one of my princesses to marry william wallace into my family. Made me laugh at any rate.

    Well, Robert Bruce did marry an Irish(sort of) noblewoman, so it's not totally unheard of. I wish he'd been the Scottish "hero" character instead WW, but nevermind, I'd just be re-hashing the "Mel Gibson sucks" stuff again, everyone knows it already. What does everyone think of Scotland in Kingdoms then?

    A certain Brian O'Connor, who I'm fairly confident didn't exist (well, no-one by that name was King of (Gaelic) Ireland in 1271 or whenever it starts) And is wife is named Jill. Maybe they're confusing him with Brian Ua Neill, who died a few years before IIRC.

    The Irish unit roster is good though, looks more "historical" than I anticipated. Too much heavy armour perhaps, and they shouldn't have lancers. And a cav archer wouldn've been nice. But all-in-all it could've been a lot worse, I feel.

    Just started a Scottish campaign, too early to tell. But I have had some epics in the grand campaigns....
