Should the next DLC be: Slavs rework, Croats, Serbs, Romanians?

I would personally want only Romanians. They already have a campaign anyway.

Since they are going to rework the Dracula Campaign regardless if they add the Romanians. It would be cool if it were made a co-op campaign.

EDIT: Made a more in-depth suggestion here:

Romanian/Vlach civ concept (inspired by the Slavs Civ DLC topic)

DRACULA CAMPAIGN REWORK SUGGESTION: If the Romanians will ever be added into the game, Dracula’s campaign will be reworked. Here’s what I suggest of it: Obviously, play in all 5 scenarios as the Romanians. Make it coop. But interestingly, the co-op partner won’t always play as the Romanians as well. 1. The Dragon Spreads His Wings → Romanian player 1, Turk player 2. Since yes, Vlad also had the support of some Romanian noblemen, thus him starting as the Romanians. But also had the support of…

Basically:

1. Turn it into a possible co-op campaign.
   M1: Vlad the Implaer (Romanians) + Turk player.
   M2: Vlad the Implaer (Romanians) + Prince Stephen (Romanians; Moldavians).
   M3: Vlad the Impaler (Romanians) + another boyar (Romanians);
   M4: Vlad the Impaler (Romanians) + another boyar (Romanians);
   M5: Vlad the Impaler (Romanians) + Stephen III of Moldavia (Romanians; Moldavians - yes, prince Stephen but with an upgrade)

2. End of Mission 2 - at the end of the intro in the 2nd mission it says: Bogdan II, Dracula’s cousin and the new Voivod of Moldavia. This is not correct. Bogdan II was Dracula’s uncle. The creator of the campaign in Forgotten Empires likely confused him with his son. His son, was Vlad’s cousin, he was Prince Stephan who helped him take back Wallachia in this 2nd mission. And after becoming the new Voivod of Moldavia (because of other events not in the scope of this campaing) would help Vlad take back Wallachia from the last time in Mission 5. So if a voice editor could be used to change “cousin” into “uncle” it would be great.

Wallachian & Moldavian politics would put Game of Thrones to shame which also justifies Vlad the Impaler’s actions but also the confusion, since rulers would change quickly, so I understand Forgotten Empires Team’s mistake, but it would be a nice detail for historical accuracy.

→ Bogdan II
→ Vlad comes, his cousin Prince Stephan helps him
→ While Stephan is in Wallachia is father is killed by his uncle who takes the throne
→ Vlad the Impaler helps Prince Stephan to take back his throne (not a mission in the game)
→ Prince Stephan becomes Stephen III of Moldavia, and actually rules for 47 years (unique in W&M at time)
→ Stephen III of Moldavia ne(textGetsCensored)ciates Vlad’s release from Hungary and helps him take Wallachia in mission 5.

3. End of Mission 5 - Fixing the historical inaccuracy at the end saying he died in battle. Actually he won. This can be easily checked by Wikipedia saying he reign 3 times. He died 1 and a half year after that, betrayed by the boyars and given to the Ottomans (which is ironic considering he hated treachery the most). But he didn’t die in that battle as the game says.

4. And not a historical inaccuracy but the game doesn’t mention it but it was important - End of Mission 4 - Not sure why this isn’t mentioned, but it’s worth pointing out that Vlad was waiting for reinforcements from Hungary, as they promised since the beginning of the war (they were supposed to arrive since mission 3 at Giurgiu). Instead, King Mathias betrayed and imprisoned Vlad. Perhaps this should be mentioned in the outro. Basically, King Mathias tricked Vlad to fight a war alone, promising he’ll come with the army in Wallachia but never did, and when he lost, King Mathias imprisoned him to secure good relations with the Ottomans. (Kind of poetic, Vlad hated treachery)

5. Another mission added between mission 3 and mission 4 - the night attack at Targoviste.

   Simply a raid of a huge base without base building but with a ton of army.

6. Using real people who actually helped Vlad III instead of generic nobleman names:

• Vlad the Younger (nobleman & brother; the youngest of the 4 brothers: Mircea, Vlad, Radu, Vlad; he was not sent to the Ottomans and supported Vlad the Impaler when he returned; he would rule in 1481 as Vlad IV the Monk being placed on the throne by Stephen III of Moldavia, until 1495 when he was ousted by Mihnea the Evil, son of Vlad the Impaler. But in Vlad the Impaler’s life, he was a loyal ally)
• Vintila Florescu (nobleman)
• Neagoe de la Strehaia (most powerful of his allies, nobleman, ruler of Craiova)
• Giacu Balaceanu (nobleman)
• Udriste Manea (nobleman)
• Commander Gales (nobleman & general, he failed to attack the Ottoman Camp from the east during the night attack, while Vlad the Impaler attacked from the west; some sources blame Gales for the failure of the night attack and wonder why he didn’t attack, whether it was intentional or miscommunication)

Prince Stephen/Stephen III of Moldavia could be the co-op partner for missions 2/5.

Commander Gales could be the co-op partner for the extra night attack mission. (between missions 3-4)

Vintila ######### ###### de la Strehaia and Giacu Balaceanu could be the Wallachian noblemen from the 1st mission.

Vlad the Younger could be the co-op partner for missions 3 and # ### # and 5 if Night Attack is added).
