General Horace

Chapter 7 - 6/53 Turns Palla 0RKO'd Astram with an unforged Javelin, and proceeded to 0RKO the rest of his gang too. Feena died on turn 1, Navarre on turn 3, but Navarre took out some hunters and thieves before going down. Cecile went north cleaning up thieves, and took the bosskill. Caeser even killed something this chapter. Got the hidden physic staff, courtesy of Arran.

Best: Uther Worst: ... Lowen

I've sent Harken, Pent and Louise down the left to take care of Maxime, and Marcus and everyone else down the right. Marcus can 0RKO all the enemies sans the Hero and Ursula with a Hand axe, so it makes it easy for me. I'll send Dorcas to replace Marcus in guarding Zephiel, and will hopefully be kept alive by Lucius's Physic staff. Marcus will destroy Ursula with the Brave Sword while she has Bolting equipped.

Marth and Cecile both one rounded the cavs with Iron/Steel respectively, so they didn't pose too much of a threat. Didn't get to kill the boss, but w/e.

She then chased down the master seal thief. Marth ran to the throne, while Cecile and Matthis killed mages. Rickard assisted Matthis because Matthis couldn't double.

Just did a test run of the chapter, Marcus can easily make it to the throne room by turn 6 without much risk of death, but my main issue is getting the treasure, as Jaffar keeps killing the thieves, and I have only 1 use of lockpick left anyhow. And I don't have any more deployment spots for Matt anyway. I might decide to sent Harken down the right side instead, and see how that works.

I always get Jerme's map too, but it's easier to get Harken there, so that's cool. Although the exp rank is tougher to get there IIRC.

I have a few physic staves, and Lucius can almost use them too, so it won't be bad for me. Prissy probably doesn't have enough range on Physic to heal Zephiel, so you're gonna need to bumrush.
