  1. I hate asking this because I don't know which way it should go, but it's not in the rules.

    Battle saves?

    Undrafted units allowed?

    Drafted units only?

    Prohibited?

    My guess is prohibited, but hey, you never know.

  2. Oh, I know all my turncounts, I posted them

    I just had them all recorded, and the videos were all deleted due to computer restarting and not saving any past chapter 5

    It's too bad about the videos, they would certainly be interesting, but I wouldn't force you to restart unless you wanted to. If you have a save from Chapter 5 or 6, you could start from there instead. Seems fine to me.

  3. so cool story guys

    I was doing chapter 9, had just finished it in 11 turns with Shota Sigurd and Hannibal recruited, then I stopped the video, and I opened the folder to start mashing the castle seized together, when I realized, that they had poofed because my computer did updates and restarted while I was eating dinner.

    I know this is kinda stupid, part of me thinks I should redo my run, but doing chapter 2 and 4 over again (well, all of Gen 1) will be a pita. If I yoink the translation patch, is there a turncount roll at the end of the game? I'll obviously have to go back and post all my strategies and such, but what do you guys think on the matter?

    What is the issue exactly? Do you not know your turncounts? Because you've posted them up to chapter 8, so if chapter 9 was 11 turns, just add that on to it, right?

  4. Integ, do free characters in RD count as drafted or undrafted? Technically, they were never drafted...so can an undrafted unit shove a free unit without penalty?

    Perhaps we need a lexicon or dictionary of common draft terms. Maybe we have one.

    At any rate, generally in the rulesets free units are in the umbrella of drafted units, but everyone drafts that unit. That's my understanding.

  5. Integrity will create the individual threads for each game. In the meantime, let's make sure that each team can play each game (physically...no need to play it well). I also recommend waiting on the final word from Integrity on scoring before deciding who does which game.

    Then, I guess we all have a team meeting...or something...to decide who does what.

    P.S. my team is awesome but why do we all prefer FE7? We should be team FE7.

  6. Played a bit yesterday and made some progress. Sadly I lost my FFVI save to a corrupted file system, so I'll have to restart that one (maybe, I might have a backup).

    Dark Dragon: Pathetic. Tellah used slow right away, then I killed Cid and Yang. After that, Cecil attacked until the transformation, where Tellah used Tornado and then Cecil went in with the finishing blow.

    Delta Sisters: Also pathetic. Tellah is ironically better at low levels due to his higher speed, so he got a turn in before reflect. I think I used Bio so that there wouldn't be a cast time. Cecil was in the back row and used the Dancing Dagger as an item on the middle sister (Cindy, I guess). Tellah healed with my stock of Hi Potions. Once the reflect bounced off, Tellah used one -aga spell reflected off of himself, but it hit Mindy, so I didn't try it again. Strangely, Osmose works on them as well, so conserving MP was not an issue. Once Cindy was down, Tellah multitargeted with Firaga, killing Mindy. A single target Blizzaga took out Sandy.

    Barbariccia/Valvalis: Cecil was in the back row again. Dancing Dagger only dealt 1 damage as an item, so I had to switch some equipment around. Free Kain made this a pretty easy fight, just very exhausting on the Hi Potions. I'm not sure what my strategy would have been without Kain, as I recall being able to damage her in the FFIVj version of the game while she was spinning. Apparently I recalled incorrectly. Kain is absolutely free for this fight.

    Now onto the underworld. I am hoping to be able to kill all the dolls before they form, but I don't think I have a way of multitargeting. How will I do it? I might use a spider silk and hermes sandals.

    Edit: I forgot to mention this but for all of these fights I maximized magic defense. Lol, I just noticed that Gaia gear prevents petrification. That would have been a little helpful for the Barbariccia fight. Good tip for everyone!

    Played a bit more, got through Golbez.

    3 Calco + 3 Brina: This was actually pretty interesting. First, use a spider's silk then Hermes' shoes. The Calcos (blue ones) are susceptible to death, so I used a Coeurl Whisker that I picked up in Eblan. They can also be cursed, so I attacked with the ancient sword until the remaining 2 were cursed. When cursed, they will only deal 1 damage to Cecil. Cecil equipped the Fire Sword and killed off 2 Brinas, weakening the last one so that he could kill it in one shot. I healed with a Hi Potion any time I fell below 500HP, and I made sure I had as much HP as possible before heading to Golbez. Once the final Brina attacked, I attacked the Calco. When it died, I had enough time to attack first and killed the final Brina.

    Golbez: This was easy. I used a Hi Potion before Golbez did his thing, then Rydia showed up. Cecil does 500-800 damage, and Rydia will deal 1k+ with Titan. I didn't really need to heal. Golbez's spells were pretty tame. I guess I forgot how easy this game is since I've played the DS version more often. The bad news is that Cecil is leveling like crazy now. The other bad news is that I'll have to figure out how to kill the Demon Wall. I'll probably have to get either the Avenger or the Defender.

    Oh...crap...how am I going to get past all those doors? Hello stack of penalties...maybe there are some lunar/light curtains available at Tomra? Boy, I hope so.

  7. Baigan - I put Cecil and Tellah in the back row. Cecil covered Tellah and mostly defended. Tellah killed one arm, then put one spell on the body. He cast reflect on himself then osmosed the second arm. The spells reflected, killing the body. Tellah osmosed Cecil and took out the final arm.

    Kainazzo - Nothing much to this fight, Tellah used two Thundagas when he built up the water around himself and it was over.

    Now I have the airship and flew around the world collecting some treasures. The only thing that I have to do yet is decide what equipment, if any, I should buy. Specifically, I have a very long Cecil solo coming up that I need to prepare for.
