Prologue - 3/3 Of course. Chapter 1 - 6/9 RNG was kind to me. Chapter 2 - 7/16 Perhaps I shouldn't have gone for both villages... Anyhow, it wasn't a contest. Chapter 3 - 9/25 Eirika charged forward, only one thing in mind - killing the boss and seizing. Neimi chipped when she could, and recruited Colm after the AI had cleaned out the chests. Chapter 4 - 9/34 Artur jumped from forest to forest down towards the boss, managing to not die (he did burn two Vulneraries, though :/) Eirika and Neimi went to kill the enemies beyond the village, then doubled back to handle reinforcements. Dozla would be nice in this chapter. Stats I'll post tomorrow. There are no major surprises, though.

So, you're not going to try for Hector x Serra or Erk x Serra C?

Prologue - 13/13 Lex and Azel teamed up to remove the bandit scourge plaguing the fields north of Jungby. Azel later went down to score a Speed Ring. And Sigurd did the usual, turns 6 and 13. Chapter 1 - 24/37 Lex finished the job Sigurd couldn't, and got a Hand Axe for his troubles. Azel can double non-axe users with Fire! Audible gasp! Azel got the girl, while Lex worked his way around to obtain the Hero Axe. Sigurd Genoa 5 Hero Sword Marpha 11 Jamka Diadora Sandima Silence Verdane 24. Are Levin and Sylvia free before Anphony? Or is a penalty necessary to save the Bargain Ring?

11: 7/72 12: 4/76 Hector charges with a Hand Axe. Eliwood goes to get a book. Marcus charges with Bartre’s Hand Axe. Hector uses 2 Wolf Beil on Zagan. Marcus cleans up what doesn’t chase Hector. On EP the remaining bandit dies on Hector. He has 4 Hand Axe axes left :/ 13: 6/82 Marcus breaks the snag on turn 1. Hector kills the PK on turn 2, and is rescued by Marcus. Eliwood got the torch while Marcus broke the other snag. Turn 4, Marcus drops Hector. One cav dies to Hector, the other chases Eliwood. Eliwood can 2HKO it, so Marcus kills the archer while Hector dispatches the boss. Turn 6, Lowen goes shopping, buys Hand Axes and a Javelin. Matthew recruits Guy for the KE, who is aggressive. It is trivial to avoid a penalty. 13x: 7/89 14: 8/97 Priscilla cost me turns. 15:7/104 16: 6/110 Priscilla rescued Hector, and Marcus carried him over the mountain. Sain rushed to back up Eliwood and get the Red Gem. 17: 10/120 Sain and Marcus cleared a path. The thief stole the Silver Sword so I could nab it without wasting a Lockpick use. 17x: 4/124 Mooncalf route. 18: 3/127 The on foot units handled the right ship. 19: 5/132 Eliwood and Lyn killed nomads at the start point 19x: 4/136 Sain got on the fort on turn 2, killed Aion on turn 3. Marcus and Priscilla handled Hector. 20: 5/141 Matthew opened the door and was rescued by Kent. Canas worked over the sniper so Matthew could get a Brave Bow on turn 2. Matthew couldn’t get to Luna without being attacked, so Lyn got the Chest after MKing the knight with the Chest Key. Sain, Marcus, Hector and Eliwood went to the throne.

He missed on the first attack, so in order to get the Wyrmslayer and finish Oleg on the PP, Eliwood used a Silver Sword. Hector reached the Elysian Whip, which I’ll need. 22: 5/149 Sain grabbed Eliwood, and was danced to just outside Heath’s range. Eliwood recruited Heath on turn 2, and stayed behind to nab the Brave Axe. Heath went to back up Hector, Lyn and Canas; Lyn recruited Rath on turn 4, when he got within range, and Sain picked up Hector and ran down the eastern alley to Eubans. Isadora dropped Matthew near the 10000G on turn 4. Hector and Sain double-teamed Eubans on turn 5. 23: 6/155 Luuuuuunaaaaaaaa! Pent is a jerk. Though, he makes this chapter a lot easier. Heath and Canas went into the desert, Eliwood, Sain, and Rath cleaned up around the grass. Florina carted Matthew around to pick up treasures. Managed to snag the Light Brand; Heath had to grab him afterwards to avoid a penalty. Pent cleaned up the final mage on the EP of turn 6. Canas, Heath and Rath all gained a couple of levels, so it was off to fight Kishuna 23x: 14/155 Rath, Heath and Canas got most of the kills. 24: 5/160 Heath drew Geitz forward, and then went to fight over the sea. Sain rushed to Linus, thought better of trying to solo him. Rath, Canas and Eliwood all chipped him while Lyn, Hector and Priscilla shopped/pillaged. Geitz got an Earth Seal. 25: 7/167 Heath and Canas went to the east, Lyn and Rath handled the south, everyone else went to the centre, Hector doubling back to recruit Farina. She insisted on travelling over the sea, so I lost a turn.

I've got L'Arachel, her range won't be terrific but hopefully it will be enough. I forgot Orson makes 5x a joke, since I usually strip him of weapons and relegate him to chest duty. At least Kyle has mobility for the rest of the game. I meant "you" impersonally, as in it's something that would not be done by a good drafter. Which is why I ignored Duessel; I intended to choose Saleh next, and didn't want to hurt my units availability.

Back on the front page with you. Chapter 8 6/87 Marth waltzed to the throne while Jagen, Gordin, and the Generals blocked the enemies. Chapter 9 9/96 Marth recruited George for shiny. Jagen killed the thief after he looted the chest. Merric and Darros double-teamed the boss (Wyrmslayer helps a lot here). Chapter 10 15/111 Ugh, this chapter. Everyone rushed to the entrance to the building. Athena was sacrificed to the sniper, while Wolf blocked the entrance (I managed to get a pegasus in front of him, so he could hold the entrance indefinitely). Then, it was a matter of going around, recruiting Maria, killing the Hero with bows and javelins, then running to the throne. Chapter 11 13/124 I got held up at the entrance to the valley. Eventually I broke through without anyone dying. Jagen and Darros dispatched the boss.

Jagen and Gordin went to free the knights, Tomas and Dolph distracting the archers so they didn't follow. Marth went the long way and killed the dragon, and Midia helped with the paladin. Maria gave her life to mid-chapter save. Gordin could tank the sniper with full health. Marth and Darros killed the sage. Then, at turn 10, Marth opened the chest next to the general. Jagen, with a Master Key, and Gordin rushed to the shop and the Boots. The General was weakened on the EP, and could be killed by Darros next turn. Julian nabbed the chest behind him. The horsies did their jobs, and Marth seized. So I grabbed every chest without taking a long time. Chapter 12x 19/135 Nice and relaxing for a change. Midia got to work on her axe rank. Macellan failed to proc strength twice. Chapter 13 10/145 Merric promoted, and suddenly he is a tank. He handled the southern ballistae (with a forged Bow he does alright damage) and Jeigan handled the northern ballistae (Macellan was used as a decoy because it means I can bring a second General to the endgame). Marth and the rest went through the middle. Astram was recruited and was immediately mediocre. Chapter 14 11/156 Silver Card makes for fun times. Palla auto-recruited, then went to go die. Catria survived for now. Village was ignored.

Holy crap Garnef is OP in this version. Catria tempted him away. No chests, unfortunately. Chapter 16 9/170 Minerva went to manipulate the AI on the western side. Midia and Jagen killed a few enemies near the throne. Everyone else went through the gate. Gordin and Merric cleared a path for Marth. Chapter 17 8/178 Merric got Fortify and the VIP card. Everyone went towards the treasure chests, and once most of the enemies were cleared, Marth and Midia went back to clear the throne room. All treasures except a Master Seal obtained. Xane and Boah were fed to the dragon. Chapter 17x 19/178 Another Gaiden. Warp staff was ignored, and Etzel left alone in case Darros can't cut it against Garnef. Delayed killing the boss for a few turns so Midia could grind her axe.

Julian, Gordin and Ymir died from ballista. Astram dies protecting the healers in the north-western group. Tiki died weakening Medeus (but I mid-chapter saved before she died, so I could record her stats). The aim was connecting the two southern groups (nobody was in the north-east group) and fighting my way to Medeus. Fortify spam ensured everyone else stayed alive.

Endgame is why I wanted the lords promoted, even though by the rules, it probably should have been banned. Chapter 2 is all axemen, so Eirika should be able to tank. What worries me is a lack of fliers. (Though it shouldn't hurt too much, I don't think there are any chapters like Ch 15 of FE6). Kyle was probably a wrong choice. I was thinking of an easier time in 5x, and I thought Saleh would be safe since Duessel > Saleh and you wouldn't pick both. I'd forgotten about Phantom Ship which is why I picked Dozla instead.

Aideen/Ethlin would only cost 3 turns here...

Sorry, I forgot that not everybody uses ZSNES. EDIT: That is an insane turncount. I don't think I could pull that off playing normally.

Does stealing count as combat?

All done. Alec stays behind to raid villages. Levin, Tiltyu, Sylvia and Sigurd take on the front line, and Slayder’s squad. They bypass Andre’s squad, Levin one-shots Langobalt and Lubeck is seized on turn 5. Claude warps Jamka and Alec to Lubeck. Sigurd charges, with the newly-repaired Tyrfing. Jamka, Levin and Tiltyu come across to handle Thracia’s troops. Sigurd, after doing some inventory shuffling, then charges to the goal. Levin and Tiltyu run off to Silence Velocireptor; actually, Levin does, Tiltyu only tags along so that can fall in love in time. Sigurd almost bites off more than he can chew, but Prayer saves him. Fun fact: Reptor has 75 HP, and Sigurd can do 37 damage to him. Not for the first time, I’m helped by the fact that Canto allows actions after attacking. 22/157 So, my guys are: Name Level HP St Mg Sk Sp Lk Df Rs Sigurd 30.00 61 28 1 22 19 13 24 5 Silver, Hero, Tyrfing, Power, Shield, Leg, Elite, (Light, Earth) Alec 24.46 43 16 7 21 17 9 15 9 Clipper, Return, (Restore) Jamka 26.46 53 27 0 17 24 9 16 4 Silver, Killer, Steel Levin 27.52 54 4 32 26 30 14 10 17 Holsety, Thunder, Sleep, Silence, Libro, Magic, Pursuit, (Speed) Sylvia 7.98 Slim, Thunder, Bargain, Barrier Tiltyu 24.20 43 7 21 23 23 17 7 19 Tron, Thunder, Elwind, Wind, Life Claude 25.64 38 0 23 17 17 12 5 22 Reserve, Valkyrie, Live, Warp Sigurd was the usual.

He only really cost 2-3 turns, and he's probably the best non-mounted non-Holy Blood unit in Gen 1 (not that that's saying much) Levin was awesome, even before Holsety happened Sylvia did nothing unexpected Tiltyu needed to be strengthened so that Levin could do stuff without her dying. Claude comes too late to be of much value other than a Returnbot in Chapter 4, especially as he didn't get his incest on with Sylvia.

Tiltyu is fed kills and villages after being weakened. Dew follows at a safe distance. Sigurd kills the siege mages, then sets himself up to attack Thove. Dew, Alec, Jamka and Sylvia all make it to the bridge. Dew unlocks it on turn 12, and Jamka and Sigurd move forward. Next turn, Jamka and Sigurd clear the path, and Sylvia dances them. Jamka manages to kill Maios in one round, and Sigurd seizes. Jamka Returns himself, and Sigurd does it next turn; Claude moves to Return Alec and Sylvia, having Returned Levin after he Warped Tiltyu home on the turn Thove was captured. Then, sad things happened. Tiltyu got a few free levels, Sigurd found axe users inadequate. Turn 22 Seize. Levin went to get Holsety, and Tiltyu managed to clear the arena.

I choose L'Arachel. Which leaves Racer with Amelia, apparently.

That's not a Fin. That's a Fin. Anyway, Chapter 2 and 3. Oh dear. Standard to Heirhein, 11 turns. Levin made it to save the Bargain Ring. Fin, with his brand new Hero Lance, dispatched Voltz for the Elite Ring. Dierdre got a surprising amount of kills (Prayer is awesome) Sigurd and Fin killed Macbeth, turn 18, I was going great! Then: Every forecast of the battle saw me unable rush Mackily without healing, and Diadora would never make it in a reasonable time. So, Lacky was recruited, and her paladins took the brunt of the enemies attacks. They died, of course, so no Knight Ring. Sorry, domu. Levin, meanwhile, wiped out Pegasi. Turn 32 for Mackily seize. From there, Sigurd rushes to beat Zyne's squad to the entrance to the path to Shagaal (Though, if Zyne had been smart, he could’ve slain Sigurd). Fin and Jamka double-team him to put Fin within a whisker of promoting. Sigurd dispatches Shagaal with a Silver Sword crit, and seizes on turn 38. 38/82 Name Level HP St Mg Sk Sp Lk Df Rs Sigurd 24.16 55 22 1 21 22 12 21 5 Alec 16.20 40 13 2 13 14 8 9 3 Fin 23.40 47 23 2 27 17 20 16 4 Jamka 16.58 45 17 0 15 17 9 10 6 Deidre 13.24 33 2 19 9 14 7 3 23 Levin 15.66 43 1 18 16 24 10 8 11 Sylvia 1.80 Base Sylvia danced Aira, having got a Hero Sword, Jamka, Levin, and Sigurd. Alec delayed a turn so he could pick up the sword. Sylvia’s assistance, combined with a beastly Fin, got Sigurd a sexy 4 turn capture. Then, Wild Eltshan appeared! I had to tempt him into coming towards Marino, so that I could clear the Cross Knights in the turn Lachesis sent him away. Then Sigurd and Fin proved unable to handle Papillon’s squad and Shagaal’s armors, so Levin had to help out. This resulted in a distinctly less sexy Turn 14 seize. Levin was ready to promote, but you can’t promote outside home base, so the last chance Warp had to be significant was wasted. Instead, Sigurd had to run across. Though by that time, Alec and Jamka had cleared the bandits, Alec scoring a Leg Ring. Brigid tanked the bandits, with Tiltyu getting the odd kill. A downright Ardanesque turn 23 finish. 23+3/108 Name Level HP St Mg Sk Sp Lk Df Rs Sigurd 27.13 57 28 1 22 22 12 22 5 Alec 21.59 43 16 7 19 17 8 13 9 Jamka 20.64 49 25 0 17 20 9 14 9 Levin 22.36 49 3 28 25 30 11 9 16 Sylvia 3.60 Eh Tiltyu 7.60 30 0 10 16 11 11 2 10 Claude 21.47 +HP and +spd

Eliwood could do with some more base str, and a buffed Rapier. Lyn should be a few levels higher if you don't go to her mode.

Yeah, for some reason I read 24x8 as 24x5. Which is why you always read things carefully before you try and dispute them.

EDIT: OK, I can't read. I can't think logically either. I thought 135 was at the end of chapter 5.

Payback for Cecilia's sandy start. :)

So, 135 should be 246, or more depending on how long it takes between Silvail and Orgahil.

So, shouldn't Levin and Tiltyu gain 3 love points per turn automatically?
