I wonder if that means Joshua is gunna be a Mauthe Doog.

Yeaaah... I'll leave that sort of challenges to the experts who want to play the game the way they know they can play. The only kind of challenges I generally do is specific unit type runs or the sort. I can give props to those who like to LTC and no RNG run things... but I certainly wouldn't do it. My playstyle doesn't really allow for those... Mr. CT, if you can do it, by all means. I'm just merely stating my own opinion on this. Not to insult anyones intelligence or talents at the game. A prepromote run of FE7 Hector mode pretty much left me raging more than FE8 girls. But twas fun. In any case, no I don't really know why tier lists exists... they are rather pointless to me. I generally let my own experiences with the characters after 2-3 different tries of using them do it for me. Or, in the case of FE9, I pretty much used every character to get a good feel for their strengths and weaknesses were. Maybe theres something about them I'm just not getting.

Do it, I don't mind. I can't speak for others though. Gorgon, Cyclops and Entombed probably though.

FE is like MY pokemon. GOT TO USE THEM ALL IN SOME SHAPE FORM OR FASHION!!! If not for support completion if nothing else. It is my personal belief that if you're "Good" at FE or attempt to boast at it, you should be able to use any unit type combination and beat the game. Its not like the games are impossible. With the RNG you are at the mercy of being screwed on a "good unit" or being blessed on a "bad unit". Dont matter who you use, you run a risk of some sort. Hell. on a hard mode run of FE6 back in the day, for some reason my Zealot ended up with 20 speed and 18 strength as well as 16 or so defense and hes considered WORSE than Marcus. In addition I did a low tier unit Hector Hard mode run and still pull through somehow. It all just comes down to a little RNG luck, and your own ability to plan, and overcome the games challenges... as well as the ones you place upon yourself, or not. ...Now I wonder what support combinations I can get when all this is done in Midnight Sun... oh the excitement...

It all depends on your playstyle. I merely am offering a way to train a unit. No matter how you slice it, unless you can One round an enemy, you pretty much need to the help of another unit to level another. its just a matter of how MUCH help the unit needs. I'm the sort of player who can manage EXP fairly well without wasting it, and by extension using an underleveled character with potential is a simple feat for me. But I can understand if some others would rather not do it, even though FE is a strategy game which takes some degree of patience and planning so.... Garion will become a berserker. With his strength, skill and sturdy defenses, he will be a force to be reckoned with. I got my enforcer.

I say that like trainee units get a whopping 30 EXP per connected hit. And given how high the levels of trainees are compared to Vanilla FE, you can get them to level 10 off of ONE enemy unit. All in all its not that bad an investment of WHAT? a minute or two, animations off? I got Djambo to level 4 levels off of the very last knight in chapter 6 by simply letting him snipe an armor with a handaxe while Faratrass was unarmed and just standing there, blocking the snag bridge so he couldnt get to anyone else, or hit Djambo. No real time or effort wasted.

AN unarmed wall unit and a javelin and a handaxe can do wonders. Or ganging up on an archer and close ranging him constantly.

I dont care about those so called LTC and efficiency runs or tier list crap. I tend to use who I want to, and in that capacity my unit choices can widely vary. Jill, Haar, and Tana as a wyvern knight is what turned me on to the wyvern unit class. Seeing a male pegasus knight with high str and low skill and no access to lances is a bit strange to me. But I have no real reason to use Schwarz with there not being many axe users to grind up... Although that rescue con... 17 is sexy. Might revisit on that merit alone... I too have a thing for babying certain units. I generally do this with Amelia and Nino. Ross on the blue moon. I dont like Ewan nearly enough to bother with that when I got Lute. I have to admit, I have a haphazard way of fighting. I got no real strategy on my first two tries, after that I will use strategies. I'm getting fired up for the next patch. :3

Axe users tend to need a little beef and whatnot in order to survive. Garion has better con and better defensive stat while not having the best kind of luck. He has something he desperately needs too. SKILL. This isnt all that common with some axe units, but when they got it.. hooo boy. I could use Christoph, but a glass cannon AXE user isnt my sort of bag. Myrms and mercs? Sure. But an axe user? I kind of like them beefy and tough. I ain't even going to lie, I'm biased towards wyvern units that are like in FE9/10. Lack of hot pegasus chick kind of scares me away. [Yeah I'm sexist bout the peg knight class, what you gunna do bout it?]

I find the lack of Garion users to be quite disturbing. HOW BOUT THAT SKILL!? (Shameless bandit propaganda at work)

I hope the game doesn't take a drop in difficulty because of the good stats you can get and exp. I like it in the hard to balls hard range. I never played Awakening, so... but in anycase. I pretty much played any hard hack of FE7 and FE8 and I have to say the difficulty is pretty good. Anything less than Hector Hard [Vanilla FE] and FE8 Girls Before the caps breaking is kind of.. a breeze to me. Just wonder how it can get tougher from here on out.

Seems like a good time to do this so... Stats time. I'm only going to do my main all stars, not the whole group.

You might want to do something about that double post before Five-O goes to correct it. Also, that seems to be one of those things that just happens when the main character Lord isnt on the screen to your side. Annoying thing it is.

I'm quite pleased to see little things like this every once and again. Continue onward with the LP.

Garions the boss, even in my playthrough of Version 1.2 I Finished the game part for the second time, no glitches or nothing. I'll probably post the rest of my note worthy team at a later point. But as before, Bandit pride. ;) Heres some extra service.
