I definitely haven't finished. But frankly, I also don't intend to do so any longer.

Same here, to be honest. I don't see why two of these can't run at the same time.

Once I get home from Poland, I'm considering giving this another try, if just a chapter a day or something. I quite like my character lineup (including Rebecca), so I want to see how well it can do.

Deciding to start this again, I've done Ch11 in 7 turns. Working through Ch12 now. I'm not going to bother uploading videos this time round, as it's a hassle to do so.

Understood. (Fully understood.)

Good luck, and have fun.

After several restarts of Ch12 (a combination of Hector getting killed and turn counts going over what I'm happy with) I managed to complete it in 7 turns. Secret Book collected, Rapier sold and 5 Vulneraries bought, and the Red Gem sold and an Iron lance, axe, sword and bow were bought. Rebecca also got a level mainly from taking down damaged Peggies. Time to recruit some Guy in 13, hurrah.

Just to recap, my drafted 8 are: Priscilla, Oswin, Guy, Ninian, Rebecca, Canas, Jaffar and Renault.

Ch. 11 = 7 turns

Ch. 12 = 7 turns

Total = 14 turns

EDIT: Ch.13 done in 7 turns. Hector got lucky on turn 6 enemy phase when he criticalled the boss, otherwise it would have been 8 turns. Recruited Guy, while Rebecca gained another much needed level.

Ch. 11 = 7 turns

Ch. 12 = 7 turns

Ch. 13 = 7 turns

Total = 21 turns

Next chapter I plan to rush to Priscilla with Marcus to start getting her experience as soon as I possibly can.

EDIT: Ch. 14 done in 10 turns, which I think isn't as fast as the last time I did it. Meh, oh well. Onto Talons. Ima kill 'em all.

Ch. 11 = 7 turns

Ch. 12 = 7 turns

Ch. 13 = 7 turns

Ch. 14 = 10 turns

Total = 31 turns

I am double posting to bump this topic, since it's an update of sorts.

Chapters 15 and 16 are complete, in 7 (or 8?) turns and 6 turns respectively. I missed out on the heavy spear because I couldn't get any of my units there in time and complete it in 6 turns, so meh. But I did get the red gem from the other village, and did some shopping for valuable ranged weaponry.

Ch. 11 = 7 turns

Ch. 12 = 7 turns

Ch. 13 = 7 turns

Ch. 14 = 10 turns

Ch. 15 = 7 (8) turns

Ch. 16 = 6 turns

Total = 44 (45) turns

Onto Ch. 17.

ch18 = 7 turns

ch19 = 6 turns

ch20 = 11 turns

ch21 = 3 turns

ch22 = 10 turns

ch23 = 9 turns

ch24 = 3 turns

ch25 = 9 turns (I think. I'll double-check once I get the turn count list at endgame.)

ch26 = 11 (12) turns

Not happy with the turn count of some of these, especially the desert chapter (ch. 22) and ch. 25.

Onto Ch.27, where I should see Guy, Rebecca and Canas promote, hopefully. I need more ammo for Canas, though. I promoted Priscilla as soon as she reached Lv10 since I needed more firepower (no pun intended).

So, here's that complete list of all chapters currently completed:

Ch. 11 = 7 turns

Ch. 12 = 7 turns

Ch. 13 = 7 turns

Ch. 14 = 10 turns

Ch. 15 = 7 (8) turns

Ch. 16 = 6 turns

Ch. 17 = 13 turns

Ch. 17x = 6 turns

Ch. 18 = 7 turns

Ch. 19 = 6 turns

Ch. 20 = 11 turns

Ch. 21 = 3 turns

Ch. 22 = 10 turns

Ch. 23 = 9 turns

Ch. 24 = 3 turns

Ch. 25 = 9 turns

Ch. 26 = 11 (12)

Total = 132 (134) turns.

This is an awesome idea, and I'd love to sign up for that second pool. Couple of rules that could use improvement/clarification:

1) Chapter restarts are okay, game restarts are not. If you're going to allow restarts because of character deaths, then there's nothing stopping someone from suiciding a character if a chapter didn't go his or her way and trying again. Starting the whole game over, however, is another matter entirely. Upset that you didn't raise X character enough, or missed Y item? Too bad. You can try to master chapters as best you can, but long-term planning oversights are your responsibility to bear.

2) The honor code is not good enough. I understand that this stuff can be a logistical nightmare, but there's an easy way to ensure that people aren't cheating: have everyone keep an ongoing log about the runthrough, and then have everyone take a few screen caps of the turn-count-list during the credit roll. If the numbers in the pictures don't match the reported turn counts in the posts, then something's up.

So yeah, count me in for pool #2.

Fuck this chapter, damn the snow and the need to open at least 4 doors to kill all the enemies. It will take me at least 15 turns to safely get through Ch. 27, all the while safely recruiting Harken for that Brave Sword.

Ch. 27 = 20 turns

Ch. 28 = 15 (16) turns

Ch. 29 = 24 turns

Ch. 30 = 9 turns

Ch. 31 = 11 (12) turns

I want to get this over with, so I've had the odd bad chapter here and there, and haven't bothered retrying to refine them. On Ch. 32, I will be making a beeline for Limstella and pick up the last of my Drafted units along the way.

Full list:

Ch. 11 = 7 turns

Ch. 12 = 7 turns

Ch. 13 = 7 turns

Ch. 14 = 10 turns

Ch. 15 = 7 (8) turns

Ch. 16 = 6 turns

Ch. 17 = 13 turns

Ch. 17x = 6 turns

Ch. 18 = 7 turns

Ch. 19 = 6 turns

Ch. 20 = 11 turns

Ch. 21 = 3 turns

Ch. 22 = 10 turns

Ch. 23 = 9 turns

Ch. 24 = 3 turns

Ch. 25 = 9 turns

Ch. 26 = 11 (12) turns

Ch. 27 = 20 turns

Ch. 28 = 15 (16) turns

Ch. 29 = 24 turns

Ch. 30 = 9 turns

Ch. 31 = 11 (12) turns

Total = 211 (215) turns

I don't want to enter myself into another drafting tournament until this one is over with. With this experience, I will have a better outlook as to which units to choose.

Units
Name--------Lv.-HP-Str-Skl-Spd-Luc-Def-Res-BTL-WIN

Hector-----5.16-44--18--20--16--11--19---9-265-104
Marcus----18.53-42--21--26--16--10--15--15-324-248
Rebecca---15.59-42--24--24--25--25---9--16-258-150
Oswin-----17.54-57--28--21--16--11--30--13-329-177
Canas------9.60-38--18--20--16--15--11--21-181-108
Jaffar----17.48-36--19--27--25--11--16--11--48--25
Guy--------8.91-46--22--24--24--17--10---4-203-119
Priscilla-15.33-39--20--21--16--22---8--18--89--41
Ninian-----8.85-20---0--15--17--17---8---8--13---0
Renaud----16.43--------Base Stats------------7---0
Athos-----20.00--------Base Stats-----------12---8
Merlinus--18.00-32---0--14--16--25---8---2--27---0

Note that Priscilla was promoted at Lv10 Troubadour. Oswin promoted at Lv20, and everyone else who had to promote did so at about Lv18/19. Merlinus didn't promote.

The challenge was challenging indeed, particularly since Hector was rubbish. I also found my Canas to be not of much use as I had initially thought he would be.

I found myself actually deploying cannonfodder in Ch. 32 to divert some of the enemy units from my main force which I had sent North and around the top of the map.

Hector being shit didn't help things either. He did little to nothing (in comparison to the rest of my Drafted units) after his promotion.

Rebecca is too underrated. She was a very useful unit to have in the team.

Also in the Final Chapter I had to drop a Drafted unit because Lyn, Eliwood and Nils were forced, so I dropped Renaud even though I was considering dropping Priscilla.

If I'm to enter a new drafting tourney at any time, I'll hopefully have a better idea on who to leave and pick during the Drafting process.

Congrats on the successful completion Raven!

I think everybody probably learned a lot from this one, about who or what types to pick.

I feel I could have done better, but I just wanted to finally get it done with.

I'll be waiting for future draft tournaments to be made.
