C3 Highlander/Templar input needed

I need input on the build I planned:

Swordsman C1 is set in stone.
Major crunch points are:
3 or 5 in Cartar Stroke? (rest would go either into Moulinet, Guard or Crown)
Doppelsoeldner Cyclone or a different skill? (I kinda want to keep Deeds and Double Pay)
5% Crafting Time Reduction useful? (I don’t have a Crafting class so I don’t know what time they usually take for things)
C1 Peltasta -> This is a major concern. I think it’s interesting to be able to switch between Guardian and Gung Ho but I’m not sure if there are better single Circle options.

Now another Major concern are my stats. Str is generally the go-to stat for Swordsman but Highlander has the crit attribute and I don’t want to just “waste” it on Moulinet since it will probably be the only thing that can crit reliably. So is going Dex actually a better stat for C3 Highlander?
Could I even go something like 4:2 Str/Dex? (some points in Con)

I put some thoughts into this class and these are the major and minor points I need opinions on. My other class is a typical AA QS so I never had to think that hard about stats and skills ^^

Opinions and help are welcome.

PS: I looked at the stat numbercrunch topic but couldn’t make a sense of it for Highlander.
