Hibari Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 (edited) What style do you like best? I like shields for the generic ones but not for the others. As for weapons I always felt swords suited them best. Edited February 21, 2009 by Hibari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuli Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 I like Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon Knights the best, but I prefer GBA Generals. For their alternate weapon, I'll go with swords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ϲharlie Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 I don't have any preference on whether or not they have shields. When it comes to weapon selection, generals were definitely at their best in Thracia where they could use all four weapon types (they could do the same in Genealogy, but poor mobility kills them). For the modern games, I'd say axe wielding generals were the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killer Poleax Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 I like shields like in RD. Best alternate weapon is axes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Wood Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 They really don't need shields IMO. They've got so much armor anyway. However I'd prefer it if they removed their chest armor and use it as a shield every time they atack like in the GBA FE's. It's really funny IMO. Axes should be their secondary weapon, because they never double with swords, so give them some additional power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 (edited) I say that axe wielding generals are the best. I like the shields, too. EDIT: I mean the shields from RD. The Knight animation from the GBA FEs is cool too. Edited February 21, 2009 by Camtech075 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkhead Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 I have to say swords fit knights better and axes for generals, exept the Black Knight who has a great skill with swords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGV Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 yes on the shield and for axes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Wozzeck Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 I go with axes for the alternate weapon since they're good in FE, you know? And as for shields, FE4 has turned me against it. Why must the RNG be so cruel in this respect? And besides, since you rarely have playable armor knights that are good, then Shield becomes that much more annoying to deal with, just like fucking Torhammer.

Lord Raven Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 They really don't need shields IMO. Rule of cool. They looked too awesome in Radiant Dawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kintenbo Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Shields aren't a big deal for me, with or without, there's nothing like a tank! Oswin, Gatrie, and others, keep your clanking on! I prefer Axes as secondary weapon. Axes are wonderous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ercdouken Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Shields: I'll say no because they really annoy me (Unless it's one of my units) As for alt. weapon, I'll go with axes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEnd Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Knights with bows? Since when? FE4/5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tino Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I'm a huge fan of the FE9 Generals. Not because they're so awesome or something, but because their animation when using a sword is so incredibly laughable But in all seriousness, I don't care much about Knights and Generals. There are some good ones out there, such as Oswin and FE9 Brom, but low movement is never a good thing and really hurts a unit's utility.

Martelé Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 (edited) Shields: Not sure Weapon: Axes! <3 But I've never cared much about knights, I prefer classes with better mobility. The only exceptions are maybe Oswin and Gatrie. Edited February 23, 2009 by Marorii Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini-Saga Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Shield: Of course make them cool XD 2 W: Bows I like the FEDS Way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rei Rei Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Anything that resembles FE4-5 Armours and Generals. They could use all 4 weapons alternatively, like in FE4-5, again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Francis York Morgan Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Due to the awesomeness that is general's in fe11 I voted for bows and shields. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodykitty Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I feel they are most balanced with Bows as a secondary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
