I'd say Hardin still gets corrupted, probably more easily too, since Gharnef would spin it to be Marth having 'stolen' Nyna from him after all Hardin did protect Nyna longer than Marth, why shouldn't she have married him. It probably wouldn't be the hardest thing to rile up the people of Aurelius against Macedon or Grust, and Elice would be less protected in Altea as Marth would have no choice but leave her to govern. Maria and Lena would still be easy as they were to kidnap. The biggest difference that I can see is that Hardin would not be able to hand Nyna over, so Gharnef would probably take Yumina. If Archanea get involved in stopping Aurelius, Marth wouldn't be in a position to go to Anri's way, at least not until much later on, so Gharnef would be in an better position, not having to fear Starlight,Marth would still have the Falchion though (unless it remains in Altea for some reson), so that could maybe even it out.

I'm tagging @Saint Rubenio because I love his 3H takes, and because he has played enough of the game to properly criticise it. (I've only played VW)
1. Reduce Reclass options: The whole certification exam was a neat concept, but because of how many options you have to reclass, its potential never got used. A individual unit should have 2-3 reclass paths, with the 3rd possibly being hidden behind budding talents, that have different pass ratios for each student (keep weapon ranks increasing pass odds tho) where say brawler Raphael has a 20% base for brawler and a 40% base for Knight or something. Not. Everybody. Should. Be. Able. To. Fly.
2. Have Individual Maps: I get that seeing the same place across different routes is cool, but when every forest paralogue is on the same map (Dagda and Edmund, looking at you two) the maps get boring. Every map should have been individually designed, ALSO include villages and houses instead of just random ass chests in the woods. ALSO ALSO missions should have been more House based, with some common missions, instead of the first 12 maps are always the same. Have only the Blue Lions fight Lonato, and have the other houses do other shit like defend a Village in the alliance from Demonic beasts, or “keep the peace" between two imperial lords bickering over a border villages taxes while some opportunistic bandits pillage freely.
3. Have missions on set days of the Calendar: so instead of having everything on the last day of the month or whatever, some missions could take place week 2 or week 3, maybe even lead into missions on the last day of one month and the first week of the next. This way it's not just take over a fort, fuck off back to Garrag Mach for 4 weeks, take over fort near the other one. This would help better pace the game and avoid those whiplash moments of wait outside the Palace for a month.
I havent played Cindered Shadows, so I cant judge on that, sorry.

Pwecious thumb waifu uwu.
So, we're doing a Nuzlocke now?
No, it will still be an Ironman, because of how the game works a mere Nuzlocke would be too easy and also because I'm too lazy to change the title at this point (mostly that one)

What can I say I make Quality Let's Plays
...Okay, yeah, I see that's Conquest... Or I think I see it, at least. I cannot be sure.
Quality Let's Play
First map: Tires That Bond.
Close but no cigar.
That's my very best guess.
I'm sure.
He has one of my favorite designs in Fates. Mostly because as far as Fates goes, my opinion on the character designs ranges from "it's bad" to "why do I feel like I'm looking at softcore hentai".
Because you are!
That's... not what I've heard, but I've never played this game, so what do I know.
He doesn't have an Endgame Ready Beard, though, does he?No, but look at that luscious hair.
I'm dying. This is too good. You can see the fucking toolbar. This is just perfect.
Q U A L I T Y L E T ' S P L A Y
Incidentally...
Hah! This shall make for good jest, for Ruben's pun game, lacks of all zest.
Sakura, more like Suckura.
Oh, I am slain. WOE, WOE, WOE, upon me, ALAS FOR POOR PENGAIUS, smaught by grievous word, may he find peace in the stars.
3DS, more like 3DEADASS.
YOU UTTER FOOL, YOU FELL RIGHT INTO MY TRAP. Look beneath the NO SIGNEL message and you'll see that the 3DS is well and truly alive! You've just prematurely punjaculated.
Am I doing this right, Butterman?
You're doing great sweetie.
On 10/16/2020 at 12:16 PM, The Roger The Paladin said:I guess these are butterfingers.
I suppose you could, well Butterfinger, if we have to be accurate, but that might infringe upon some trademarks.
Pun makes even more sense now. It's like you knew I'd do it and based the intro around it. Brilliant. 10/10.
Fear my mighty clairvoyant powers, which I use to mess with people on forum pages all across the internet.
You know, I kind of guessed the plot-twist from the title, but the execution was butter than it had any right to be.
Indeed, it seems to have gone over far butter than I had ever imagined.
Guess now I have an excuse to Pound away with Gastly Pokémon puns. And Ruben might have to Hydro-pump one or two if anyone meets their Houndoom.All very good, but do remember to leeve some for the others. Also oundoom isnt in this game, butter let you off with a warning.

Plot convenience.
PLOT TWIST!!! You know I kinda want to go back to this game now, I remember there being overwhelmingly many side campaigns that I never got around to finishing (plus I don't think I grinded up many of the characters to their upgraded forms either...)
Yeah some of the later campaigns are a pain to unlock, and the Final forms are wayyy too grindy to unlock.
Fun fact IS tried to pitch a Pokemon Fire Emblem cross over game that would have looked a lot like this one, but Pokemon Conquest was already in the works at the time, leading to the doing a cross over with Atlas for TMS:#FE instead.
That fact is fun.
Errar
Spoiler
So... I suppose that by now you've already fallen for my devilish ruse. That's right, this isn't a Conquest Ironman, but a Conquest Ironman
i hope the joke was funny enough to warrant this. I am going to be doing an Ironman of the best Fire Emblem game, Berwick's got nothing on this! I'll get into the nitty-gritty of the rules shortly, but first let's hop on in to start the game.
So first we get the choice of our lead, Boy or Girl. This has no real bearing on difficulty, except for the Male Hero having a slightly more incovenient final form to unlock, so we pick the
barelyharder option.
Comedy.
DeSmuMe doesn't really capture video all that well so here.
The kingdom of Aurora.
Behold! The Silent Protagonist, and The Jagen.
???: Ahh!
Also there are some children here as well, but we don't care about them.
Suddenly! Bandits!
Koroku: And we’ve come to challenge you to a battle!
Corrin; …! ( He sure is expressive aint he?)
Nagayasu; Heh this is gonna be easy.
???; Please wait!
Nagayasu: Well, the more the merrier.
Koroku: Join forces if you like-it won’t make a difference!
???: Please let me help you! Okay, first things first: movement! Like this, see?
??? Shows us how moving works and now we get to try it out.
We are not allowed to hit the Jigglypuff, drat! so let's wait for now.
Koroku: But you’re gonna have to leave that castle in Aurora before you even settle in!
The enemies get their moves.
??? All right! Leave this one to me!
Jigglypuff slaps that Bidoof into a pile of slapped Bidoof.
Now we move.
???: You deal with that one Lord Corrin.
Now Corn gets to attack, and that Tepig goes down in just one hit.
Nagayasu: What are we going to do now Lord Hideyoshi is going to be mad…
Koroku: Never mind that Let’s just get out of here!
Ooohhh namedrop.
???: Your link with Eevee, Lord Corrin… It’s already so strong… You might just be the one…
After battle stats.
???: Oh, I’m sorry! I haven’t introduced myself yet! My name is Oichi. I’ve been on a journey with Jigglypuff here… B-But… Umm, i-if you don’t mind…
Nah, i'm good.
Nope, dont need you.
Oh fine, but only so I don't have to sit through this dialogue loop anymore.
Oichi: As a warrior, I will give my all in your service. But it is a worry…
Loredump cutscene so that I don't have to.
Oichi: Then Jigglypuff and I are going to have to become much stronger! But first, let’s take a look around the kingdom of Aurora!
But first let's take a look at our army.
Corrin over here is your standard modern FE protag, having decent specs across the board, Power, slightly boosts a Pokémon's damage, Wisdom lets them tank hits a little better and Charisma gives a slight boost to speed. 90% of the time these don't matter, since the Pokémon's individual matchups are more important, but it does come into play in mirror matches, however most of the time you just use these for shops and whatnot. The warrior ability Top Speed is one of the best tier one abilities in the game, but more on that later.
Eevee is a good all around Pokémon, but having the Normal type Quick Attack, means that it doesn't excel against anything in particular. HP is simple, when it hits 0 you're gone, Attack dictates how much damage you do, and Defence makes you take less damage when you get hit, Speed determines both Accuracy AND Evasion, which means that fast Pokémon are better than slow ones. Celebrate, is essentially Galeforce or Raging Storm, Koei did it first I guess. As it is an Eevee, it has the full range of eeveelutions to evolve into
well except Sylveon because this is Gen V, but there are only two of them worth evolving into, more on that when it becomes relevant.
Oichi has pretty underwhelming Power, and her Wisdom isn't that great, but look at the size of her Charisma. Sweet song is a full map wide 50~ HP recovery for all allies, which makes it very good early on, but it become less and less useful as the game goes on.
Jigglypuff is the reason, why Oichi is the game's Jagen. It's stats are awful, and Doubleslap is unreliable garbage, it does do some pretty decent chip damage when you want to feed kills to your other Pokémon. Not even evolving helps fix the puff, because its stats are just that bad. The only redeeming qualities that Ol' Jiggy has are its very high HP allowing it to soak up lots of weak attacks and the lullaby ability, which has an RNG chance to put adjacent enemies to sleep.
Anyway, let's o do the thing that Oichi said.
In we go!
Oichi: Ooph!
Oichi: I’m sorry… There’s a farm not far from here, Lord Corrin. I’m sure there’ll some wild Pokémon there… Let’s go do some battle training!
Sadly we cannot bench Jigglypuff yet, so everybody goes onto the next map.
As we are the instigators of battle we get the first move. Note the turn limit, every map in the game has a turn limit, and the attacker loses when it reaches 0. Most maps have a 10 or 20 turn limit, but some have longer. One turns consists of a player phase and an enemy phase.
Oichi: So, what do you want us to do?
We have now gained command of Oichi and her Pokémon.
The map and the music.
JIgglypuff digs a hole, finds a potion and gets bopped by Eevee for messing around.
The enemy move a little bit closer to us.
Oichi: Eevee has one called Celebrate… And Jigglypuff has one called Lullaby
It should be noted, that not all Pokémon of the same species, share the same abilities. Not every Eevee has Celebrate, and not every Jigglypuff will have Lullaby.
Since Eevee can't take out Starly in one hit, Jagenpuff does some chip damage. This lets Eevee proc Celebrate, and move toward the Doof. On the subject of damage, displayed damage is not true, but actually falls within in a 10~ range of damage, so take it's figures with a grain of salt.
We get a Quick Attack off for half health and take a Headbutt in retaliation, on EP.
We move Jagen closer to the boss while Eevee pops a tree to get a Potion.
Headbutt causes a flinch, making Jigglypuff lose it's move, so Eevee chops down the other tree but finds nothing.
Bidoof moves to flee on Ep, but Eevee catches up on player phase and attacks for game. Eevee got a little bit tougher and the army has gained one Potion (the display does not show new items added to an individual warrior's inventory)
Link is the equivalent of a Pokémon's level. It's on a scale from 0-100%, however not all warriors can have a 100% link with all Pokémon, most Warriors can only acheive this with 1 kind of Pokémon, though some can do it with multiple.
Oichi: And Jigglypuff is looking pretty worn out too. I think we should take a little break.
Each warrior, can take one action with one pokemon each month. Once every warrior takes an action, we can end the month.
Hideyoshi: Losing against a complete beginner like that they need to get their act together! I’m not letting them mess things up for me now! I’ve got to make the Kingdom of Aurora mine!
Ohoho! Ominous
Well, that's all the time we've got for today, dear readers, stay safe and keep it Buttery.

Hello, it is I Pengaius here with my long awaited contribution to the
SCULet's Play thread, well here we go.Part 0; The Prelude to Conquest
Spoiler
That's right Fire Emblem Fates Conquest tHe BeSt FiRe EmBlEm. Anyhow you don't really need me to tell you how to play this game, how an ironman works, or how much this games story sucks, so I wont, but I will be playing through the first few chapters in quick succession, since the game doesn't really pick up until we get the first bit done, so we can consider this a test of Imgbox and also just an intro, anyway New Game time.
I had considered going Lunatic, but that sounded difficult, so I went with Normal
the intended difficulty. Time to pick my Corrin's Gender lmao as if anybody chooses Male Corrin
AH CRUD! I picked Male Corrin, well it's too late to change, might as well make him as generic as I can.
Perfect! Let us Play!
The first map OH BOY!
The map plays out just like the simulations these are totally normal gameplay screenshots/
Also this is Yukimura he is a surprise tool that will help us later.
HEY WAKE UP! and we're onto the next map.
Anyway our only opponent is an unmoving Xander, so I approach and take the time to switch to the correct option setup.
The game tells us to heal after the fight but we don't have to since I am a professional FE player. (i missed the first battle forecast because I am an expert LPer) We bonk Xander and win.
Next map, this is Gunter and he is Endgame Ready
Gunter smacks Rinkah about and makes Kaze regret his life choices, and the map is clear.
UwU must protec pwecious Hans_chan and NEXT MAP
Gunter makes his way across the map before joking about the enemy's position being too strong. Good one.
Hans Clears out the fort for Gunter to rush past and go for the boss, winning the map.
Hey look its that one dude from Gaiden. NEXT MAP
Kaze/Rinkah pretty much solo the map, Sakura gets KOed and Ryoma shoots her killer for map clear.
AHHHH! A g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-ghost! NEXT MAP!
Nothing much happens here except now I have lost Raijiinto.
YOU.ARE.THE.OCEANS.GREY.WAVES ROUTE SPLIT!
Well I can't pick Birthright.
I sure wish i could play this game instead.
OW! Shit, I dropped my 3DS
Oh fuck, I hope it's not broken, better reset to check it still works.
Oh hey! I never knew that Tecmo worked on his game, guess they designed the Hoshidan weapons or something.
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

“Hey Charlie?" Butter spoke up. "Think it would be a good idea if you and one other person go and pack up the tents while the rest of us search for a little while longer? Then when you have the tents packed up you can signal us to stop the search? Since we have more eyes in the sky, we'll need less on the ground and all that and it'll shave a couple of minutes off of the time we'd take getting ready if everyone kept searching."
'Hopefully he'll pick up the hint and take Karen out of here. She looks half ready to throttle Noelle over there.' Butter thought to himself.

No, margarine is far more processed, it's main use is for baking, but when consumed by itself is severely lacking in creaminess and flavour compared to butter.

This, the fats used start of as healthier unsaturated fats, however they pump them full of hydrogen, to create hydrogenated fats which are heavily misshapen and super not good for the body.

Well, it's still fairly common in my neck of the Emerald Isle to see margarine. Flavourings are something you need to check on a case by case basis, since the ingredients arent always uniform.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but earlier today I came across an ad that I believe (from experience receiving ads from the same source on other sites) to be innapropriate. The site that the ad redirects to is from my understanding a NSFW website. While I personally have no issues with that type of content, I understand that there are some people who are not comfortable receiving these kinds of ads and I wished to bring this to staff attention.
Below is a picture of the ad in question. (This was on a user profile, the name of which I have edited out for their privacy)
I don't know how to end this post.
How can I erase my account from the forums completely?

I do not believe that you can, erase the account, (this is the internet, anything that's put up stays forever) but I'd say the best thing you could do, is change your username to a set of random numbers, change your pfp to a black screen, wipe all info off of your profile and sync the account to a different email address.
Then, take it up with a mod, about why you want to delete, and they can permaban your account or something.
Why do you want the acc gone so badly anyway?
