I'm like 95% sure that Graham Jones from Aria founded their cult (I think it's in one of the Glossary entries which is why we know the cult is called "From Light"), Celia just inherited the position. Also I think the village area where Hammer and Yoko set up shop was built by the cult for non candidates to live in until they kool-aided themselves into monsters, though I don't think anything official supports that theory.

Any other Tactics Games you’ve played?
Pengaius replied to Gamemast's topic in General Fire Emblem
I'm not suuper versed in wider srpgs but the two oddest in my repertoire would be Rondo of Swords an ATLUS published DS game that features limited voice acting. The primary gimmick being that movement and attacking happen simultaneously which means you can move through a row of enemies to attack like 5 people at once. Characters don't die when killed but will suffer a stat penalty or the next map if they get K.O'ed. Also Cotton from the Cute 'em ' up series of the same name is a playable character if that means anything to anyone. Digimon Survive is an odd mix between a real actual Visual Novel and an SRPG, with a bit of creature collection on the side. Sadly it doesn't actually do either style particularly well but that's kind of Digimon games in a nutshell. It's on Steam but you might be better off trying to get a secondhand copy for Switch Xbox or PS4. -
for what it's worth from my own experiences the Google Play store has a bunch of free emulators that are mostly pretty good and will have actual human reviews. So if you have an android phone and feel the inclination to check out FE 5, 6, 7 or 8 you can do so pretty safely. (And in my opinion fe4 works better as a pseudo mobile game, letting you do a few rounds of Arena or taking a turn whenever you have a few moments free.)

What crazy Fire Emblem spin offs would you like to see?
Pengaius replied to Jotari's topic in General Fire Emblem
Just Dance: Fire Emblem. Not just because it'd be cool to have a bunch of the series' music remastered and preserved in one place but also I want to see Hierophant, Validar and a Risen Chief busting it down to Id Purpose. -
It's weirdly validating to hear that a bunch of people are struggling with 5x. I always see myself as someone bad at the game so it's nice to have cleanly beaten something that others are struggling with. Honestly I can see why elitism took off with how good it feels to be """"superior"""" to other players. Make the map harder Ruben. Do it. Also buff Zabba again. She deserbes it.
-
Wahoo the hack comes out at last. Use Zabba. Zabba is the goat. Also buff Zabba again she deserves it. My joy of seeing this is only rivaled by my anger that I'm basically the only person for whom fogged up skirmishes ever have and ever will apply. Anyhow everyone have fun with this one. I would but if i see FE8 again i'm going to scream. Happy hunting.

The pacing and focus of a Genealogy of the Holy War TV Show
Pengaius replied to Jotari's topic in NES and SNES Era
8 episodes of a woodcutter in Verdane living his best life before getting conscripted and instantly having some unnamed blue haired dude on a horse run him through with a very shiny sword.. -
fe6 Fire Emblem: Eckesachs - FE6, but you play as the bad guys!
Pengaius replied to Saint Rubenio's topic in Fan Projects
Use Erik, this sad wet little man only believes in his own strength stat, he can get one rounded by generics in his join chapter I gave him speedwings and you should too. Also you should kill off Tick to not reach the 52 character hard limit. Anyway good hack fun, funny, deliciously f*cked up at times, competently written too, and with such a dashing author too. Well thats enough stroking Ruben's ego from me (for now) you should play this hack and ptaise the good herr Saint as well. -
Been exited for this since I saw the videos of it on your yt channel, looking forward to see what you've done with the game. I can only hope that you kept my favourite grinding spots and also added Arkis.

This seems like a fun time. Havent actually checked the game out yet so this should be a good indicator to know if i'd enjoy it. My biggest question is does it have more of the good Thracia jank (fun hidden mechanics, wacky growths, nonstandardised enemies) or the bad Thracia jank (Invisible warp tiles, no map preview, player only ink of war).

Route Splits (Thracia 776, Binding Blade, and Sacred Stones)
Pengaius replied to FailWood's topic in General Fire Emblem
So I dont really have anything to say about Sacae (based)/lIIia (cringe) that hasnt already been said other than the fact that if you dont recruit sue you cant go Sacae. But the other splits are pretty cool. For Thracia what i haven't seen brought up in this thread yet is all the cool items that the b route gives you. Luna manual, a 2nd Vouge, Berserk Staff, Heim Scroll and 1-3 master swords depending on how capturey you feel. So the choice becomes do you go A route to get some strong units for your army or do you go B route to make your pre-existing army better. The only problem with B route is that 16b is the 2nd worst map in the game only losing out to the "Whacky Statue Heist of Blindness and Teleportation". Conomore is nice for the few outdoor maps you have left, Shannam helps oufit your goon squad with Silver weapons and I do enjoy Miranda if only for the absolute hilarity that is Wrath meteor shananagins. But enough about the best game in the series its time for the real big route split. Eirika route has some of my favourite map ideas in the series. Revolt at Carcino is such a cool map conceptually. Normally maps where you save a bunch of green units they are on the way to the seize point, but this map has you approach from a weird angle where you need to get to Innes and co and form a defensive position using the little box and the walls while you divert another squad to rush Pablo. It would be such a good map if only Fe8 enemies knew what stats were. The aias map is pretty interesting too as it puts the player in a pincer attack and forces the player to rush down Aias (or would if again Fe8 enemies were strong in any way). The maps biggest problem is that if you play too fast you miss Cormag which ruins the payoff for the whole Valter/Glen mini-arc so that kinda blows. I think the map would be better if it didnt have just Aias as a win condition but also Pablo too but hey I actually enjoy 5x so what do I know. The Ephraim route maps are all kinda bleh with the exception of the Gheb chapter for entirely meme reasons. All the Ephraim maps are just kind of slow and boring. The only map thats more fun than its Eirika mode counterpart is the castle map, but thats just because the architects all suffered from heatstroke when designing Jehanna Hall. -
In all fairness your honour, my client is simply built different.
