X-Naut Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Since I don't play for LTC (yet), I genereally use both. However, in chapters that require you to rush (i.e. FE6 Chapters 8 and 11A), I lean towards mounted units for the extra Move. (Then again, everyone does for those chapters.)

Rehab Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I find something romantic about the perfection of fighting footwork, possibly because I'm biased by martial arts. Horses are cool too, but the idea of a master fighter predicting attacks and blunting or moving around them interests me more than the horse rider simply going NOPE and riding away.

NinjaMonkey Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I am a fan of mounted units (especially Paladins), with the exception of Pegasi units (not including FE10!Elincia). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omglmaowtf Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Mounted In fact other than fliers, the only way I'd favor a unit over horsies is if FE introduces a war elephant cavalry mount Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deranger Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 In fact other than fliers, the only way I'd favor a unit over horsies is if FE introduces a war elephant cavalry mount That'd be interesting. Then they'd really have to consider trample as a skill. Or shove then canto. Where the shove did damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashGordon94 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I tend to have a mixture of both, though I'm rather distainful of overuse of mounted units because of how much LTC crap pushes them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkhead Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 What do I think of what? Elaborate on what you mean. yeah ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Envoy of the Beginning Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) As many have said, mounted units are better due to their higher move, better rescuing, canto, etc. etc. Although I prefer them for a different reason.

riariadne Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) I use whichever I particularly feel like. Sometimes I gravitate more to one side or the other, depending on how I want to go through the playthrough.

tiff Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I don't really have a preference as far as having a mount goes but the characters I tend to like best seem to be largely foot units. I certainly don't shy away from cavalry though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I tend to have a mixture of both, though I'm rather distainful of overuse of mounted units because of how much LTC crap pushes them. "Oh no, another playstyle favours a certain kind of unit! SHUNNED FOREVER" Seriously, is that your ONLY reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashGordon94 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 "Oh no, another playstyle favours a certain kind of unit! SHUNNED FOREVER" Seriously, is that your ONLY reason? Because it's totally not annoying at all to have everyone going on about how mounted units are "objectively better" and shit because of that?

It's not annoying, actually, it's just true. And no one goes on about it unless people make ridiculous claims to the contrary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celice Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 It can be annoying to him. It doesn't have to be annoying to everyone. Then you can ignore the tier threads?

The_Purple_Knight Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Mounts in fe 4 otherwise I prefer foot soldiers in any other game except 5 . In 5 I have a foot soldier team and mount team which works suprsing well with the fatigue system and how dismount works in that game . I deploy one or the other depending on the map.

If we were going to worry about that, his reasoning was anti LTCers to begin with so he'd be the one causing the storm. I mean, seriously, calling it "LTC crap"? Hello?

I mean, seriously, calling it "LTC crap"? Hello? That's not necessarily derogative. Like if I say, "interesting shit bro" on an art topic, that has positive connotations, at least to me. I'm not saying Kirby was praising LTC, but that could just be his pronoun type thing for "stuff".
