A lot of characters were better in the original compared to Shadow Dragon.
And unfortunately for those characters, pretty much no one is going to go back and play the archaic and slow as balls original when they can just play the (even with its flaws) far superior DS remake.
Oh for sure. But as someone who actually bothered to go through the pain and agony of playing FE1, I just figured I'd point it out 😛

That and like pretty much every pre-promote General, he's fairly mediocre at best in gameplay.
But hey, at least he isn't Shadow Dragon's other pre-promote general (Horace) who requires you to actively kill characters off just to unlock the side chapter where you can recruit him.
In FE1, he's actually pretty good, as he's the only General you get in the game as a result of Armor Knights being unable to promote, and all stats cap at 20, so Lorenz is a solid late game unit.

That should've been specified then. I just kept seeing the name Lorenz in this thread and was confused the whole time, tbh. I had no idea there was another Lorenz. I never played much of Shadow Dragon, admittedly.
Lorenz isn't recruited until the map where you fight Camus, which is pretty much the tale end of the game, so I won't blame you for not really knowing about Archanea Lorenz

...I think you posted the wrong image link, that's not Lorenz.
This is Lorenz:
Not sure why he's being mentioned alongside Archanea characters though...
And yeah, while Awakening is due for a banner soonish, Tellius is even more due.
The General with the eye patch is named Lorenz. He's recruitable in Shadow Dragon, and an NPC in Mystery of the Emblem

Exactly. I can't believe those haven't been added yet. Even Lorenz should really be in.
You mean explosion man? 😛

Not just them. Where in the world is Nyna?
Or Coyote Hardin and Medeus?

He has a prf axe. The Axe of Ukonvasara.
And since this is an opportunity to put him in the less saturated axe cavalry pool... they should take it.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I guess if Academy Annette could get the Crusher, it wouldn't be unreasonable for Lorenz to get the Axe of Ukonvasara

Lorenz would also make a good axe cav.
What do you mean by that? I feel like he'd be either a lance or tome cav

OMG!! I really want Cecil from Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem Like her alot ! Luke and Rody already in the game.....
I honestly wouldn't mind a banner that would add the rest of the 7th Platoon with Cecille, Ryan, and I know people are gonna kill me for this, Kris. Though personally I'd rather see Julian and Lena added first and foremost if we get another Archanea banner in the future, cuz it's honestly criminal that they still aren't in the game.

Yeah! And don't forget that Kieran would add a sorely needed axe cavalry to the regular pool. Why the heck is he not in yet... 😞
We definitely need more summonable axe cavs like Kieran, Lex, Johan, Brighton, Hicks, Duessel, and so on. And if it wasn't for the fact that he would color share with Annette, I think I honestly would have preferred Ferdinand to be an axe cav instead of a lance cav.

Why are you assuming there will be Warriors 2? and if there is, whichever Byleth they choose won't prove anything because that game is not canon,but i do hope female gets to balance things like the first 3H banner. All the polls (being official Heroes ones or japanese magazines) have proven that female Byleth is more popular, so personally i hope she gets the Corrin treatment because a lot of media always use the male and while i understand why, it gets tiring.
And female Corrin isn't the default one always because Birthright and Azura exists (i think cipher treats the equally but they do have a bias towards female in heroes and merchandise).
Coming back to the Byleths, the same way as Male Corrin is Birthright and Female is Conquest...maybe Male Byleth should represent Silver Snow and Female Crimson Flower, and the other routes can go either way the same as Revelation.
and yeah Female Byleth is waaay more shipped with Edelgard, while i have actually seen a lot of Dimitri and Male Byleth (actually the same amount as female) specially by Japanese artists.
Koei Tecmo has expressed interest in a Fire Emblem Warriors 2, and they said they were also satisfied with the first game's sales, so it's not really unreasonable to expect a sequel at some point

I consider Aran to be Dawn Brigade. Any character that joined after Micaiah meets up with Pelleas is Dain Liberation Army material.
True, characters with even less characterization have made it in the game than the Dawn Brigade.
The Crimean Army only has Nephenee and she's not even an official member as she's a militia fighter. It's quite appalling that Elincia's crew has no representation.
I still feel like if they ever wanted to add Kieran at any point, the Dauntless Crimeans banner would have been a good time since it added Oscar.
-
I definitely wouldn't mind seeing some of the Dawn Brigade like Edward and Nolan added, though I still feel like the missing Greil Mercenaries members and the Daein characters from PoR like Jill and Zihark are of much bigger priority.

She can absolutely be an axe unit. That wouldn't actually solve the issue of uniqueness that you brought up though. Because unless a category is very unsaturated, such that they aren't competing with many similar units at all, this wouldn't actually matter.
Haar is an axe flier, and he still struggles for a unique niche in a category that already has similar slow, bulky units like Michalis, Beruka, etc. Not to mention Cherche, who shits on all of them.
Conversely, had he been blue, his direct competition would be Subaki, Cormag, and Altena.
The most important thing in breaking out of redundancy is a prf weapon or prf skills. That's where units like Haar and Cormag unfortunately failed. That is what will be important for Jill, not what color she is. Fortunately for her, IS is so much more likely to give these to popular females.
Then give her a Laguz Axe then. Anything is better than being yet another generic lance flier

Actually, Sothis is a sure given. Even if not playable she's sure to be in warriors 2. And there's also a chance that Rhea's gonna be in. So the only way for gender balancing is Male Byleth.
Male - Byleth, Dimitri, Claude
Female - Edelgard, Sothis, Rhea
The only way I could really see Sothis is if she appears in some of Byleth's special attacks (similar to how she shows up in Byleth's Final Smash in Smash)
Rhea's status as an NPC kind of makes me unsure how likely her appearance in a FEW2 is

Haar has had a much stronger association with axes than Jill from the start, while Jill has mostly been associated with lances.
That said, I could see a case for Jill being an axe flier. Maybe she gets Shirahim's Tomahawk.
If you're really trying to tell me that Jill has to be a lance flier cuz of her starting out as one in PoR, look at Gerik and Raven. They both start out as sword locked mercenaries in their respective games, and yet they're axe units in Heroes despite not being able to use them until promotion into a Hero. If Gerik and Raven could be axe infantry units, there's no way Jill can't be an axe flier.
59 minutes ago, Mercakete said:Ooo, Fuga would be cool! Ah, and Flora/Felicia's dad. I'd like to get to play him. 🙂 Ah, and someone mentioned Dwyer. Yeah, it's be nice if he came into the game. Honestly, Mitama would be perfect for this book's theme, too, as I mentioned, though really, I'd especially like her in a fun seasonal theme I made up a while ago: pajama heroes. Linhardt, Haar, Python, Mitama, and Tiki or Dwyer would be good for that banner. Sleepy heroes... Dwyer could wield coffee as a tome or something. Maybe they're all trying to study for an upcoming meeting, and Kiran thought they would somehow make good study buddies and not just sleep through everything. Hehe. X3
Truth be told, part of the reason I wouldn't mind Fuga being added is just to see the salty reaction of someone I know, cuz he absolutely hates Fuga with an undying passion (mainly cuz he replaces Izana as a playable character in Revelation)

Why would Nolan ever be the Bantu? He actually has a personal weapon for starters, and Bantus have only ever been less popular units without personal weapons. If any DB member would be the Bantu, it would be Aran, Laura, Meg, or, one of the most forgettable units ever, Fiona.
Touche. But I'd still prefer Jill to be green instead of blue

That'd be cool, but I'm not sure how likely that is. Nolan, Leonardo, and Edward are all missing. But they're also all male, so... IS will surely throw a female or two in there because females. Still, I'd imagine we could see Meg or Laura in a DB banner before Jill. She would definitely be in a Daein banner along with Zihark and Tauroneo though. Give Jill an axe and they'd all be different colors too. Zihark a red sword, Tauroneo a blue lance, and Jill a green axe. Three different movement types too. Armors are also rarely added to the regular pool, so Tauroneo would help that. I like all three of these characters a lot too! Zihark is my favorite swordmaster in the series besides Ryoma and Tauroneo is my favorite armor. Jill is best wyvern rider behind Haar imo.
...Would you really think IS would prioritize putting less popular characters like Laura or Meg into the game before Jill? Be honest
6 minutes ago, Etheus said:I would. Because she is the most pivotal unit for clearing the DB chapters.
My lineup would be:
Green - Nolan
Red - Edward
Blue - Jill
Colorless - Leonardo
GHB - Tauroneo
Demote would be either Edward or Leonardo.
That unfortunately means leaving out Pelleas, but I think you could fit him into another theme. And honestly, the most fitting way to get him would be as a TT reward.
Though I would still rather get Jill on a turncoat banner featuring Jill, Nasir, Zihark, Shinon, and an Ena GHB.
I know it would mean colorsharing with Nolan, but I'd honestly much prefer Jill to be an axe flier instead of a lance flier, simply because we have way too many lance fliers as is and Jill wouldn't stick out much if she was just another lance flier. Now if the game still did Bantu units that are immediately dumped into the 3-4 star pool, we'd be having a a different story right now with Tauroneo on the banner, Nolan as the Bantu, and Jarod as the GHB

We literally have a Fates banner still going on right now (though it ends after today), that's definitely not happening.
I realized that we're probably getting the May 8th banner trailer on my birthday. Oh shit. If this is Tellius, especially if it has any of the Tellius peeps I mentioned before, BEST BIRTHDAY PRESENT. ^^
...Though, I wouldn't be interested if it's the Dawn Brigade since I don't care about them. But literally any other group of Tellius characters would be fine to me.
What if the Dawn Brigade banner had Jill on it? If you're willing to count her as a Dawn Brigade member that is
-
I guess maybe Female Byleth for an equal gender ratio between them and the house lords, but I guess it could also be male

I don't expect the Warriors banner to come anytime soon, especially with the need for Tellius banners and 3 Houses banners.
But when it comes, it won't be as hard to make a banner as you people are making it out to be.
Rowan (red sword), Lianna (red sword), Yelena (green tome), Warriors!Anna (blue bow). Darios (red sword as the GHB) and done, we now have all the notable characters from Warriors (Fs in the chat for Oskar)
Honestly, I forgot Oskar even existed until now. That should tell you something

I see them trying to incorporate Velezark as the GHB unit somehow before using Validar as the Warriors rep.
I'm not sure characters having a unique outfit because their base class was already using a promoted class so they kind of had to make something up is enough of a reason to include them on a Warriors banner.
Besides, we all know they would just pick Camilla/Azura/Olivia instead of Frederick since they all also got unique promoted outfits.I mean the issue with Velezark is that unlike many of the big evil final boss dragons like Medeus, Duma, Idunn, etc, he doesn't have a human form (not counting Darios under his possession). And besides, they randomly added Gharnef as a GHB with the Surtr and Ylgr banner, so Validar as a GHB to go along with a FEW banner isn't exactly farfetched. Not that I want Validar in Heroes mind you, god no, but still.

I think the reason why we didn't have a Warriors banner yet is because there wasn't enough OCs from that game to make a banner out of. Just three sword users and their version of Anna (who is also my favorite version of her with that nice outfit she has).
Maybe if there is ever a FEW2 with more OCs that use a lance, axe and/or tome I could see a Warriors banner being released.
Like I said, if Rowan and Lianna were an axe and lance lord respectively like originally intended, you could definitely make an easy banner out of them, Darios, and the Warriors version of Anna. As for the GHB/TT unit, probably Validar (unfortunately) since that game has such a freakish obsession with him for some reason.

Shura would also be one of my choices for a final Fates banner. Possibly as the GHB.
With the others being Orochi, Benny (we could use more armor demotes), Reina, and Nyx.
I mean so as long as Hans is never added, I'd be fine with someone like Shura or Fuga being GHBs for Fates banner
How many party members should a JRPG have?

5-6 seems like a good number to me, though 7 also seems good.
