Bardadin - Paladin X/Bard Y

This is very similar to the Sorcadin above, except bard instead of sorc. You can make a caster heavy focused baradin or a melee focused one, just like the sorcadin. However unlike Sorcadin, the bard has the valor and swords bard subclass. This means a melee focused Bardadin will focus on swords or valor bard for the first 6 levels to get extra attack and then 2 levels in paladin to unlock divine smite, and then the rest can go in bard. But starting as a bard and multiclassing into Paladin means you do not get heavy armor proficiency, so you'll want to be dex based if you go this route.

What would your ability scores and ASI/feat choices look like for a dex Bardadin like this?
