My first Draft and LTC playthrough was "LHM + HNM: The second welcoming draft". I completed it under 257 turns with a team of Lyn, Erk, Hawkeye, Lowen, Legault, Raven and Rebecca, plus the free characters.

Alright, time for a big post! Chapter 16: 5 turns It's Marcus' goodbye chapter, meaning he's going to shine! After recuing Hector he sprints until the boss, while being supported by the pyromaniac and our beloved Deadlyn. (get it? because she's deadly? no? I'll shut up now) Chapter 17: 10 turns Ugh, this was a pain. Without Marcus' help I had to rely on *gasp* Tangela. His frailness was such that after a while I just found it preferable for him to drop Hector and get back. Hector and the devil sisters (Lyn + Rebecca) made short work out of anything. Also, welcome our new team member! Raven enjoys slicing humans and dying his hair on the spilt blood. He is typically a very good unit. However, because the tactician Blues003 is an incredible noob, he only got to promote on the before-last chapter, thus not adding much to the team throughout this playthrough. Chapter 17x: 4 turns Oh wow this was annoying. The LTC was achieved thanks to the Devil sisters and their sidekick, Pyromaniac Erk. Critting everything they found was a breeze to them. It was Loserwen that kept dying. I thought you were supposed to be bulky! Because kind hearts are prevalent in pirates, Hector talked to Fargus and smoothed his with words. Chapter 18: 4 turns Ah, the pirate ship. Lowen and Hector rushed to the boss and killed him. That was really it. Meanwhile Lyn and Rebecca killed more stuff. Raven went shopping and bought a ton of Iron weapons. Erk tried to kill something but there was nothing for him to do. Chapter 19: 6 turns Same tactic as the usual: Lowen picks up Hector and rushes. He was actually decent this time around. The other four just killed stuff. Uhai got Beil'd so hard he decided to die instead. Also, Rebbeca hasn't gotten yet a single def/res stat up. Girl, I get you like destructination, but please, grow some shell! Chapter 19x: 5 turns Same strategy. Lyn reached level 20 so she went to visit the suckiest FE character ever, Renault. Rebecca/Perky dealt with pegasus knights and mages, while Lowen and Hector decimated everything else. Yay. Chapter 20: 6 turns I usually split up my team on this map, but this time around I just rushed through the center. Lowen's Horseslayer + Hectors Halberd + Lyn's Longsowrd = bye bye first set of horses. Then I just rushed a bit and got Legault in the process. Also, Rebecca got a brave bow. Even Lyn got scared at the sight of that. Legault is a Bro. He has sucky stats but still OHKOs stuff without no one knowing how. Welcome aboard, Brogault! Chapter 21: 3 turns GO LOWEN. CARRY HECTOR AND LET YOU TWO DESTROY EVERYTHING AT YOUR SIGHT. Also, Erk promoted. Seriously, that was all that happened. :\ Chapter 22: 4 turns Ow, this was a pain. Loserwen was never so bad. He carried Hector down but needed a LOT of luck in order to survive stuff. He also needed Evil Beca's support. from the ballista. In the end Hector got a crit, so yay. As a sidenote, Legault had stolen a Member's card and as such, went shopping for Elixirs. Chapter 23: 5 turns Desert chapter. I have no idea how I managed 5 turns, but I somehow did. Thanks to Perky Erky and NPC Pent, I guess. I took the opportunity to get Lowen some exp; after his pisspoor performance last chapter, I thought babying him on a chapter where he wouldn't accomplish much anyway would be a good idea. So glad I did! Finally, got our last team member! This is Hawkeye. He is an Indian chief who took the life of many cowboys. While being a solid unit, his growths are subpar. He still manages to be useful throughout the game though, so I'm glad he's with us. Chapter 24: 2 turns I seriously had never gotten the short version of this map. So when I saw the boss sitting right there I was like "Woah!". Anyway, I ganged up on him and he soon fell. Buh-bye blondie beauty! Chapter 25: 5 turns Firstly I tried to get through this map by sending Hawekeye to the right (he can cross mountains), but figured out that dancing to just-promoted-Lowen would make him go faster. So that's what I did. Deadlyn, Raven and Brogault went south, while everyone else went North. I cleared the path for Lowen to rush east, and dealt with the remaining cavaliers/pegasus/pirates with Rebecca, Hector, Erk and Hawkeye. SERIOUSLY REBECCA, I KNOW YOU ARE AWESOME OFFENSIVELY. BUT WHY DIE FROM A PAPERCUT. She made me restart this chapter like 7 times! Chapter 26: 11 turns Lyn promoted and trained her bow skills. Because slaughtering with a sword is too mainstream now, and Rebecca kinda looks cool doing her thing. As for the chapter, I just survived, got a Luna tome, and did an unnoficial run where I killed Vaida just because I loathe her. Nothing else to report. Chapter 27: 8 turns Ugh, I hate the snow. Aside from that, just kick stuff's ass, cross fingers for Ninian not to get zomfgpwned by Boltings, and promote Rebecca. Yay! Chapter 28: 11 turns Again, survival. Got all the chests. Half the team left, half the team right. Not much to add. Chapter 28x: Free Went in for the speedwings and the fell's contract. In the end, Brogault was babied, promoted, and started silencing stuff like it is nobody's business. I approve of that! Chapter 29: 12 turns Because Hector promoted, Lowen is now useless. He cannot carry Hector anymore. Jesus Lowen, now that you started becoming defensively reliable you stop being able to do the one thing I chose you for. Thanks a bunch! Brogault showed that stats are overrated and that he doesn't care. GO SILENCER! Also, damn that final Wyvern that kept flying around. He trolled me 2 turns! Chapter 30: 7 turns I could've probably gotten a better LTC but I hate this kind of maps. So I just went northwest and had Lyn/Hector combo destroy everything. Chapter 31: 11 turns Just waited it out and took the opportunity to baby Brogault a bit more. Also, I killed Denning because no one loves him anyway. Chapter 31x: 5 turns OH GOD YES! I was totally running out of weapons. Silver/Killer weapons, come to me baby! Chapter 32: 12 turns Perhaps I could've done better but I seriously couldn't be bothered. Also, because I had been such an ass throughout this playthrough, I hadn't gotten any promotion item for Raven. He finally became a man, despite limited usefulness. I went south and left Hawkeye/Raven in the way so that they could deal with some side-enemies. In the end, Lowen noticed that he couldn't beat the boss at all. NO FEAR, FOR BROGAULT IS HERE. Silence'd. Seize'd. Final Chapter: 8+1 turns Meet Athos, the guy who's going to save our asses! He has a beard, he is awesome, and he'll make this chapter a lot easier. He can also double stuff with Luna thanks to Speedwings. That is all you need to know. Anyway, first lured the bow-users and moved Athos/Rebecca/Nils up. Rebecca and Athos made short work of the mages as everyone else ganged on the bow-users. Lowen and Raven went to deal with the axe users next, and Erk/Athos/Hector dealt with the generals later. Hawkeye went down to deal with Jermes/Ursula, as everyone else moved up for the Regal brothers. Throughout all the map, Erk provided important support thanks to Bolting. In the end, I had Athos Bolting Nergal once, refreshed him, and used Luna. As for the Dragon, Lyn actually did 16 damage and Rebecca did 8 with Sol Katti/Rienfleche. But then Nils sang a song and Athos thought "Hey, why not Lunacrit?" Final HNM turncout: 176 turns LHM: 81 turns Final turncount: 257 Time for everyone's favourite part: Stats! I apologise for the quality of the pictures, but it was screenshotted directly from my phone :\ Next time I'll play on the computer and do better, alright? On this playthrough, Hector was solid. In other words, he sucked. Hector isn't supposed to be good, he's supposed to destroy everything that crosses his path. While I greatly valued his defensive stats, his speed made him uncapable of doubling whatsoever. He couldn't also be ferried by Lowen once he promoted. A real pity. Nils was... well, Nils. He did what he had to do. Refreshing and evading like hell. I was glad to have him. LOOK. AT. THAT. She must've had some sort of lesbian relationship with Anna. In the very beginning I described Lyn as a professional blood shedder, and I guess I was right. Maxing all those stats while still having such decent HP, Def and Res was an amazing feat. Combined with Killing Edges, Killer Bows and the Manni Katti, Lyn was one of my most surefire troublesolvers, whenever they appeared. Definetly the best Lyn I ever had. Gets the Most Awesome Unit award. Athos is just Athos. He doubles stuff with Luna after speedwings and crit'd the Dragon because he's awesome like that. Thanks gray beard, you saved me a lot of headaches in the last chapter! Lowen sucked. His defensive abilities only started showing once he actually promoted, and he was never of much use offensively anyway. Indeed, it was only after promotion and babying with statboosters that he became somewhat reliable. He was only useful for carrying Hector around, and after the Lord promoted, he couldn't even do that. I give him the title of MVP simply because of his move. If this wasn't a LTC playthrough he wouldn't have gotten it; Raven, who had been stuck at 20/-- for ages now, was much more useful than him for the vast majority of the game. Actually, scratch that. His horse gets the MVP award. He gets NOTHING. Rebecca always looked up to Lyn and tried to achieve the same. To be honest, she did. She hit hard, and not rarely she critted stuff. I'm very happy to have had her on my team, and if it hadn't been for her frailness, she could've competed with Lyn for Most Awesome Unit! Erk was a very good unit overall. He was of impressive bulk, and would more often than nor ORKO enemy units, were they magic-based or not. Thank you Erk for your amazing doubling Thunder/Elfires, and for your invaluable support with Bolting on the last chapter. Raven sucked because of me. I forgot to get him the promotion item, although he doesn't seem like he was too RNG blessed either. Those stats remind me of myrmidons. In any case, he was solid overall. He never compromised the team, and was reliable enough for me to send him to clean some areas provided that he had the correct weapon (ie Armorslayer or Longsword) Brogault was a boss. Despite his stats not reflecting it, he Silence'd quite consistently during the playthrough. He made me waste one extra turn to recruit, but compensated for it by saving at least 2 on the penultimate chapter by silencing the boss. He was also fast enough to dodge hits consistently. This made me feel more at ease, since I had absolutely no problem to send him against a horde of knights and watch him come as the sole survivor. Thanks Brogault! The cowboy killer was also a good unit to use. While his growths aren't anything to write home about, his starting stats do make up for that. Thank you for being reliable both offensively and defensively. He was particularly useful for rescuing frail units such as Rebecca and Ninian, who sometimes couldn't risk it to be open wide for an enemy attack That's all folks!

Hector Normal Mode, commence! Chapter 11: 8 turns. Meet Hector, the Badass. He will be accompanying us on our epic adventure. Hector doesn't give a damn about WTA, because he doesn't afraid of anything. He axes whatever is in front of him, and it works. Yes, I suck. I had never played a Draft before and did not know one could 6-turn this. Oh well, I'll accept my punishment for being a noob. Mathew got the Red Gem. Chapter 12: 5 turns. Say hello to our three new members: Lowen, Marcus and Rebecca! Lowen has always been handicapped in comparison to other knights because of his hair. With only 20% of normal visibility, his barber has been responsible for many injuries on this honorable and glutonic knight. If he ever misses an attack, you know who to sue. I would also like to note that he has several pokedex entries. "The whole body is swathed with wide vines that are similar to seaweed. Its vines shake as it walks." "Its identity is obscured by masses of thick, blue vines. The vines are said to never stop growing." "It is shrouded by blue vines. No one has seen the face hidden behind this growth of vines." "Its vines grow so profusely that, in the warm season, you can't even see its eyes." For more information, google "Tangela" and its evolution line. Marcus is an honorable knight, who will be fighting alongside us up to Ch 16. After that, he shall lose himself to the pleasures of bohemianish lifestyles. In the meantime, he'll be the bread and butter of these few chapters. There's nothing as pleasurable as moving Marcus as far as possible and have him and his Silver Lance OHKO whatever appears in sight. Except perhaps Nutella. Do you see those green eyes? That green hair? That apparently innocent look? Doesn't she look caring and warm-hearted? LIES! You've seen how Lyn turned out before. Rebecca is the twin sister of the Devil's Spaw, and will be doubling/critting anything that opposes her (as well as a lot of things that don't). If you don't believe me, check the stats by the end of this post. I'd advise you to do so quickly though, as Becca's coming for you as we speak. On to the chapter: I always despised this map, and this time was no different. 5 turns was the best I could do - I have no idea how I actually did it , considering the immense ammount of tries. All I know is that in the beginning, Lowen went for the Secret book while Marcus/Rebecca cleaned a bit the south part. Marcus then rushed upwards. The book was used to instruct Hector on HOW NOT TO MISS SO DAMN MUCH. Chapter 13: 10 turns. Another chapter I seriously dislike. The strategy was to basically rush and have Marcus meet the team later on. Got some guy recruited just because I like his weapon. Rebecca took the same steroids Lyn had before and grew very well offensively. Chapter 13x: 7 turns. I got the 5000Gold in one try, but on the other I got awesome level-ups. So I kept the second file. I was aided by a number of anonymous people. Nothing much to report, except that Hector started hitting more reliably. I guess education is worth something after all. Rebecca kept massacring from the distance like the cunning lifesucker she is. Chapter 14: 5 turns. The pyromaniac is back. Welcome, Erkie Perkie! The general strategy was to rush with Marcus/Lowen, support with Rebecca, and leave Hector to deal with the beginning soldiers. Erk was so pissed when he saw Serra again that he took it out on Erik in a flash. Got it? Flash? Because he used thun- okay I'll shut up now. Chapter 15: 7 turns. I wish one could end this chapter by killing the boss, instead of wiping the floor with all the enemies and then sit still for a couple more turns. On the other hand, that came in handy. The floor was getting considerably dirty with Rebecca's non-stop salivation at the prospect of getting a Longbow. STATS!

Damn you.

Time to start the Draft! Hello! The name's Blues and I am a tactician. My heart burns with fiery passion. Or affinity, whatever. We get welcomed by a hot sacaen girl - I love this game already. Meet our first character: Lyn! She's a pure-hearted, well-intended Sacaen girl bandit-slaughterer who enjoys dipping her sword on freshly-split blood. She's also into insecure girls who ride winged-poneys. Go figure. Anyways. Prologue: 5 turns Nothing to see here. Also, no RN burning, because "RNG abuse is for squares!" Move along. Chapter 1: 7 turns Lyn gets more Swords from the cavalier and proceeds to destroy bandits. Meanwhile, she gets Str-including level-ups. Go Lyn! Chapter 2: 7 turns Lyn is not only a killer, but also a vandal who fancies destroying public property and snatching amazing swords. She also enjoys getting more Str level-ups and ORKO-ing stuff. Chapter 3: 7 turns Lyn goes solo once again. Why wouldn't she? She ORKO's anything with her Iron Sword, except for bosses who get ORKO'd by her Mani Katti. Did I mention more Str-level ups? Meanwhile Florina sells stuff and buys more Swords for Lyn. But she can't, according to the rules, go fetch those 2000 Gold. Florina, you worthless unit. Chapter 4: 7 turns Lyn dances "Can't touch me" and slaughters more bandits. Except for that loser DorkAss who was moved by the power of words. Also, I suspect Lyn is on drugs. More Str. Chapter 5: 7 turns Lyn finally gets company. Meet Erky Perky, the pyromaniac who is seconds away from immolating a certain pink-haired cleric. He's level 1. Meaning he has room for growth will have to be seriously babied until he's half as awesome as Lyn. At least he killed one brigand and one mercenary. Everything else was Lyn's work. Chapter 6: 7 turns Lyn fails me and does not get a Str-including one-up. Matthew is nice and allows me to use him even though he's undrafted. Erk levels up twice by going down. Lyn activates the first switch and owns the boss with Mani Katti. Unfortunately, I couldn't access the third room without losing turns. In the end, Erk gets the Angelic Robe. He needs it. Chapter 7: 6 turns Yay, new character! Meet Nils, a kid who says he and his sister are actually Charizards in disguise. For those forgetful, born after 95, or just plain retarded, here is a Charizard for comparison purposes: Seems legit. In any case, Nils power is to sing so horribly that units feel the urge to move twice on that turn and GTFO. You're in, mate! This chapter is too long for someone without mounted units. So here was my strategy: Turn 1: Florina rescues Lyn. Nils refreshes. Florina drops Lyn near the boss. Erk does his thing against the nearest shaman. Turn 2: Erk does his thing against the nearest shaman, and after a Nils refresh, the bow-user. Lyn ORKO's Heintz. With the 4-turn penalty associated with using Undrafted Florina, this gives me 6 turns. Not bad! Chapter 7x, 8 and 9: 7 turns Seriously, just rush in with Erk and Lyn, and own stuff. No big strategy here. Chapter 10: 7 turns. Turn 1: Florina rescues Lyn. Nils refreshes. Florina drops Lyn near the boss. Turn 2: Lyn goes to the boss and Mani Katti crits. Turn 3: Lyn captures. 4-turn penalty thanks to undrafted Florina. Still, 7 turns. Not bad! Total LHM Turncount: 81 turns. Not bad for no-mounted units LHM, I'd say. Time for stats and final comments on my characters! Name LV XP HP ST SK SP LK DF RS Weapon Ranks Lyn 15/-- 51 26 14 17 20 14 03 05 SA -- -- -- Erk 08/-- 28 29 09 08 13 07 06 07 AB -- -- -- Nils 03/-- 39 16 00 00 13 12 05 06 -- -- -- -- Lyn: The Sacaen beauty is the Devil's Spawn and you know it. With maxed speed at level 15 and pretty good strength and skill, she ORKO'd anything with her Mani Katti (Laungdren required crit). Karel cringes just from hearing her name. And rightly so. I will now endure painful chapters of tasteless characters until I can regain my trustworthy bloodshedder. You shall be missed, beloved menslaughterer. Erk: After the Angelic Robe, he instantly became reliable against mages, and was soon doubling mercenaries. While not as fantastic as Lyn, he was definetly useful and I was more than glad to have him on my team. Thank you, psychotic pyromaniac. I hope to you see you soon, this time weilding the powers of Thor. Nils: He wasn't half bad. Shaved off some turns and dodged hits like Bieber dodged puberty. Go Nils!

I'm pretty satisfied with how my team turned out, despite the lack of mounted units. Still, I guess their reliability will compensate for it. Or not. Lyn: I definetly wanted her. One of my favourite characters. Also, I like to bring her to C Bows and crit everything. Erk: He's not a Pent, but I guess he'll do. I wonder if I should promote him early for some competent healing. Hector: <3 Marcus: Mounted unit. Will be abusing your move till Ch16! Rebecca: Perhaps I should've picked Louise. Still, I tend to get good Rebeccas overall. Raven: Heavy hitter. Wohoo! Lowen: Not the best cavalier, but he tanks enough. Perhaps he'll be used to bring Raven upfront. Only Lance user. Hawkeye: Him + Hector = instant defeat of anything that flies. Legault: Pretty good last pick. Nils: You'll be refreshing Lowen/Marcus a lot! Athos: Luna-freak!

Legault

Rebecca!

Come to me, Slayer of Wyrms. With Hector, your axes shall bring destruction to all that flies! Hawkeye!

The goddess of Smexyness, Lyn!

Perky Erky!

Raven!

I'll pick the bush-haired cavalier, Lowen.

Yay, welcoming Draft! Thanks! I'm in as well! Let's see how I do on my first draft! P.S. First post?

Thanks for the advice but... I already cleared the playthrough. It was pretty fun. :D I'm now doing a LHM + HNM to unlock HHM as well...

It is indeed. But it's either that, or quite the horrible unit. I feel like I can rely on the others without items, but not on her. :P

I already used it and she turned out pretty reasonable, with one Angelic Robe, one Dragonshield and one Goddess Icon. + Lowen's A Support. Still. xD

Thanks :) Keep'em coming!

Thanks :) Keep'em coming!

Morning! I'm a casual FE Gamer. I want to play FE7 on my Android Phone, but recently I lost my save. I was on chapter 19xx on HHM, so you can see how annoyed I was at this loss. Even worse, I tried some workarounds but I have no way of getting another save to start HHM-ing again, due to issues with the emulator I use there. As such, I will have to start everything anew. I already did LNM + ENM, with a team given by some folks from the forum: Eliwood, Lyn, Isadora, Lowen (what a BEAST), Priscilla (could only use Anima after promoting), Serra, Lucius (what a BEAST), Bartre, Dorcas, Pent, Nino, Wallace, and Heath. I enjoyed the challenge immensly, which is why I would like to ask again for members for my LHM + HNM team. Hopefully, with some different members. I would like you guys to pick up to 12 characters out for me. I hope to hear from you soon! ;) #1 Lyn #2 Hector #3 Rath #4 Karla (Bartre until level 5 Warrior) #5 Fiora #6 Dorcas #7 Erk #8 Canas (After promotion, use only for healing) #9 Louise #10 Pent #11 Isadora #12 Florina #13 Kent #14

So she cannot use staves after promoting?

I'm sorry, I am new around here so I might be misinterpreting you, but what do you mean by that? Isn't a Draft run simply be supposed one where other people pick my team? Or am I doing something wrong? EDIT: I was clarified on the Chat. Pardon my newbishness.Also, Karla is Hector Mode only.

I downloaded them x) Then you run them with an app called Gameboid ;)
