William Wallace...

[Riadach]

anyone know who the Irish hero is?

[Antagonist]

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.

I don't think he is the emergent champion. It should be Brian O'Neill as he is the one who united the kingdoms. However, all his children names in the britannia campaign end in O'Neill anyway. I love the way there is a maccarthy in cork and an o'brien in tipperary(should be ennis though). There is too much heavy cavalry in the Irish roster, siege equipment would be out for the most part too.

I don't think the champion is necessarily "emergent" though. I think the list of heroes is:

England: Edward I (starting as a Prince, leaves on the Crusade and can return)
Scotland: Wallace (emerging)
Wales: Llywelyn ap Gruffydd (starting)
Ireland: Brian O'Connor (starting)
Norway: Haakon IV (starting, or emerges quickly)
Barons: Simon de Montfort (faction itself is emergent)

You can tell the hero character because they have a different apperance, both on the strat map and in battle.

Damn well he's dead then. And me expecting a video and a large army to boot. What powers does Brian O Neill have?

[Antagonist]

I think hero powers are limited to the Crusades campaign actually, but I could be wrong.

Ah well. Things are going well anyway, even if the music is a bit kitsch.
