VincentASM Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) Some info from people who managed to obtain the issue early. Luke and Rody's artwork (only the faces) Sirius and Malice's artwork Not shown in the images, the BS Fire Emblem chapters are apparently included as an extra mode. Malice is from one of the BS FE games, so this is probably true. Additionally, it seems Athena from FE DS was revealed in the Famitsu issue that had the previous new scans.

Jediabiwan Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Awesome! I'm amazed they actually added the BS chapters. If only they could have added at least some of these extras to shadow dragon :(. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MizuJosh Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I can say I'm very happy with these scans. And it also seems we're finally getting art for everyone. :3 I was disappointed in the lack of art given to us in SD. But Luke and Rody look nice. And Sirius. And Malice.\ YAY BS FIRE EMBLEM!

deuxhero Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) I wonder if Malice will be a Myrmidon or Mercenary. Her stats growths and more of Myrmidon, but she looks like a Merc/Hero in the art (that thing behind her looks to be a sword far too big for a myrm). I want a fourth female hero damn it!

Ike-Mike Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 BS Fire Emblem chapters are apparently included as an extra mode. Fire Emblem can be put to rest and I can die happily now. Thank you Santa Claus! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Glenn Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Since it's possible that I missed something, what's up with the arrow between My Unit and Katarina in the first scan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentASM Posted June 19, 2010 Author Share Posted June 19, 2010 I'm not really sure how to describe that kanji, but I believe it means that they're in the same class (like in school or a team) aka they joined at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says she's a mercenary under her description, apparently out for big money. So we you will get your wish. Also, sweet that Athena's returned.

Narga_Rocks Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 It says she's a mercenary under her description, apparently out for big money. So we you will get your wish. Um, that doesn't necessarily mean anything. All the GM's were "mercenaries". Additionally, so were Thany, Wade, and Lot. Or I think the game called them all (including Dieck) mercs.

Emperor Hardin Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 She was one in the original game. If a female unit can be a mercenary, why doesn't the custom female unit have that option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deuxhero Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 She was one in the original game. If a female unit can be a mercenary, why doesn't the custom female unit have that option? So was guy who's name starts with N with the killing edge that has too many translations to count. The Hero and Swordmaster classes were first separated in FE4.

Additionally, it seems Athena from FE DS was revealed in the Famitsu issue that had the previous new scans. Oh, and this too. They'll probably put all the old gaiden dudes in new gaidens. Though, poor old Frey'll probably be dead :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Rey León Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 She was one in the original game. So was Navarre, but he's a myrmidon/swordmaster now. We haven't seen a Female Merc since Echidna, it's possible IS has decided Mercenary is a "male-only" class now so she'd probably become a myrmidon. Though I'd like to be proven wrong because I want to see a female Mercenary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rewjeo Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Was there any distinction between them originally? Wasn't it just Swordfighter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Tarrasque Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 (edited) Was there any distinction between them originally? Wasn't it just Swordfighter? In FE3, there was only Mercenary -> Hero. In FE4 is where the distinction came, the class was SwordFighter and the promotion was either Forrest (what US players know as Hero minus Axes basically) and SwordMaster which was without a doubt, the better of the 2 promotions since it had Continue as a class skill. FE5 pretty much did the same (gave Heroes Axes though or Swords if they started with Axes) and then FE6 divided the SwordFighter class into the old Mercenary -> Hero and Myrmidon -> SwordMaster.

Dat Nick Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 She really seems like more of a merc build and character, plus they already have Athena filling the role of female myrm...I'm betting merc, actually, but what happens happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rakath Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 It comes down to if they fix Re-classing, really. But given we already have a female that could fall into a Set B class, I'm hoping for some diversity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidAndGoliath Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Wow, IS continues to surprise me. Great news!! :D I don't see what the big deal is with making mercs an all-male class. But if Malice AND Athena are in then it's safe to assume that Malice would keep her original class and Athena be the myrm. If the BS chapters are gonna be in here, do ya'll think this means they are some of the downloadable chapters instead of main game chapters?

VincentASM Posted June 20, 2010 Author Share Posted June 20, 2010 While we're waiting for the issue to come out (apparently it's a 6 page blow out), here's Athena as promised. Image courteously provided by Tactician Vog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dat Nick Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 (edited) Say. Does anybody else care what happens to Frost the Bishop, Dice the Fighter, Raiden and Belf the cav duo (why isnt Belf named Snake?), and Robert the Horseman (no, not THAT Robert the Horseman from FE5...) Also...Vincent, any chance you could get shots of the faces from BSFE exclusive guys (And characters who got a different portrait, like Nabarl) that's really the only thing I'm interested in about BSFE, but my BSFE "cartridges" don't work.

Jediabiwan Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 As fun as it would be to have a female merc, I just don't see it happening. I don't think there has been a single female merc in all of the main FEs so I don't see them adding one now. However, if they did it would be awesome!
