In mainstream media, we don't tend to hear much about Robert the Bruce's brother, Edward, but the more I read about him, the more intrigued I become. Before his death in 1318, before the death of Robert's daughter, Marjorie, and before the birth of Robert's son, David II, he was supposedly named as Robert's successor, which indicates to me something about Edward (perceived or real) skills.
In terms of politics and battlefield prowess, do you think Edward Bruce was as good as or worse than his more famous brother? Personally, although Robert made some blunders in his time, he was the better politician, while Edward was just as good a soldier.
