The partisan is effective against sword-using infantry AKA half of Onduris' infantry. Juan easily 2HKOs every mercenary and myrmidon he comes across with it, and it's part of what makes him the best flier on this route.

P.S. you're wrong about nomads, they still promote to troopers.

No idea what promotes into Duke Knight, but remember the royal weapons that house guy mentioned? You should have one with you from the bandit's fortress way back(I think).

Duke Knight, Mage Knight and Great Knight are exclusive classes, so none of your units can promote into them. Rather, you get one of each class pre-promoted. These units may be weaker than your current army at the time, but with a little training they can end up on par.

Royal weapons from the bandit's fortress?!

Hmmm...are you talking about the ranseur (effective against the cavaliers) or the ancient blade (requires weapon level S)?

I'm afraid, that none of my units can ever use the ancient blade, because it's nearly impossible to bring the sword level to S. The weapon level rises very slowly in this hack and Renair only reached B in my first run.

This explains a lot!

I guess these classes are only specialized for nobles.

I've no idea, if I'm going to use them.

Mainly depends on, how many promotion items I'll get. If I have some level 20 units, I'll use the prepromoted units just not to waste any experience.

About Onduris. . .

Gold is tight, but so are weapons in general. You'll hit a stretch where you won't see a proper armory for a while (I forget exactly where). You do get to shop next chapter, so take advantage of that!

Chapter 8b looks a little bit similar to the previous map: A big outdoor map with pretty much the same enemies: Mercenaries, myrmidons, soldiers, archers, cavaliers, dracokinghts. However these paths aren't as narrow. Bringing Crowe and the two fliers against the dracoknights is as recommended as to bring the ranseur and the partisan, which deals effective damage to myrmidons and mercenaries (lance version of the swordslayer from FE8). There are a lot of houses, a shop and an armory. [spoiler=However you can't visit and pass these houses.]At least I thought it, when I played this chapter. Only when I cropped the images for the map presentation, I noticed, that these houses look differently.i4ubyX5.png?1 I couldn't visit the house with the black arrow, so I ignored them all accidently. I've no idea, what unit I missed.



az2AXl7.pngJMGNF4P.png
Two ballistas. One of them is in the mountains to piss off the people, who want to kill the dracoknights with the two fliers of your team.

x9VvcqD.pngcdKz0rU.pnggmiikHl.png
A couple of enemies with a killing edge. You also see female myrmidons.

g2cdTbC.pngoBG7Ei1.png
Marroan is a nomad trooper. I mistakenly said that nomads can promote into duke knights and use lances as second weapon type. However in these hack mage knights, great knights and duke knights seem to be exclusive classes for certain nobles. It's not possible to promote someone into one of these classes.
Marroan will be one of the easiest bosses, if you've saved the ranseur! Ilanice can 1RKO him, because her speed is high enough to double him. She's the best unit to fight him anyway because of the weapon triangle advantage and her high resistance. Flamberge doesn't do much damage to her.

OmFWivo.pngG8CTXM6.pngOtX6sbD.png4cjfGOr.png
This is Seymour. He's not a NPC, but rather an ally already. He's a duelist. He can use sword of lances. Gladius is his personal sword. It hasn't only a 1-2 range, but it also works like the runesword. Since he's a special class, he seems to be the counterpart to Arcus: A lord. If he dies => Game Over
His main task will be to save these villagers:

9MrexqE.png
These villagers have pretty much no stats. A papercut will kill them so keep them away of any shit. A few of them are already in the attack range of the ballista so blocking the enemies won't be enough.

Chapter 8b is another seize mission. However unlike in the previous chapter there's no turnlimit. Just focus on saving one NPC at least.

Seymour actually looks cooler than Arcus. I prefer lances to other weapons, so I hope you use him.

Seymour can kiss my ass. He had the worst stats of any required unit, and made Eliwood look like a god.

Oh, and you'll want to recruit the other unit on this map. The weapon they hold will be most useful!

I replayed the chapter to get the new character (new class) and the weapon from the two villages.

I'm continuning with my first run of this chapter.
After the ending, I'll show you the two villages (including recruitment) and the new stats of my units. And I'm going to tell you about a trap, I felt in the second run.


I want to apologize for the very low text commentary in this part, but there's not much to tell (positively) about this chapter. It wasn't a very exciting outdoor map for the most part.

[spoiler=A very decent first level up.]Actually it was the only good one in this chapter. In my second run his level ups he was a piece of shit. Now I see the comparison with Eliwood. BTW his bases are laughable for a level 10 unit. He has even less base speed than Renair had at the beginning with level 2. I'm not even sure, if I'm going to use him. Probably only because of his runesword.

Only after playing two chapters I can say already that I liked the map design in the Musain-route much better.

There's some movement in this chapter now!

e888k09.png
1. This dracoknight appears next to the beginning. He'll go for the tent at first and after that he's going to kill the last remining civilian. That means Juan must fly back at once so save this NPC to get the reward. The tent will survive two hits so the dracoknight needs at least three turns to kill Katrina. It gives me a little bit time, but it'll become a close race! That's what I meant in the previous part: One of your units must carry a civilian to prevent this situation.

OQGRPiP.png
2. Suddenly I must fight lots of enemies and more are coming towards me (at the top of the image). Renair is damaged so I let her equip the golden edge for this turn.

If you killed this ballista archer before the boss, he'll let appear four dracoknights immediately after the kill. They all have a short spear and two of them have a killer lance as second weapon. So if you can't kill them, you'll be screwed!

@ The Moniker and X-Naut

Chase's first level up was quite decent: Strength and speed. The most important stats for a bowuser. Hopefully he'll keep it up!

Access to use long bows is an advantage for Crowe for sure. I still have Garath, who can use them without AS penalty. Though his hitrate is questionable...

Chase actually turned into a good unit when I used him, hope he does for you too, since there are so many wyverns around you're gonna need a good bow user.

Also, there's actually a line you have to cross to get the reinforcements to spawn, and the ballista archer is just a trap to get you to cross that line. Still, those wyverns really can be devastating if you aren't prepared.

Chase has better growths than Crowe (same Strength growth and better Speed), it's just that his bases are subpar. You lucked out with the immediate boost to both, otherwise he'd have trouble doubling a few enemies (drakes) and his damage is pretty weak without a crit. That and longbow access (which comes earlier) ensure Crowe isn't entirely outclassed; if he got better levels Chase would have a harder time competing.

Also good job keeping pace and not falling for the ambush trap on turn 15. Those drakes are nasty if you haven't crossed the woods in time.

Garath needs one more speed to stay on your team for a very long time. At least until Chase is up to par.

IIRC, Chester is highly recommended for the next chapter.

The rest of the story from chapter 8b. Not too exciting except for Crowe's effort to give me 5000 gold.

[spoiler=Anyway chapter 9b is done]with one unit less. However I get three new ones so I doesn't matter. This chapter was damn hard in the beginning, but by far much more fun than the first two chapters in this route.

Will start uploading the first part tomorrow.

[spoiler=Chapter 8b part 4]
[spoiler=Seymour's introduction:]After Eclipse's advice I'm not going to use him, because I just dislike his personality (boring and arrogant) and his stats suck for a level 12 lord. His level ups were terrible in my second run. Kolbane and Chester are better swordusers and Ilanice can use the same weapon types as him with much higher speed. This means I'm still using Crowe, because this route has lots of enemy dracoknights and he has at least the speed to double and ORKO them.

The most annoying enemies is this chapter: All these three archers have an iron long bow, who can attack your third line. This makes a safe pleacement of Ilanice and my two healers very difficult.
Another problem will be the large number of dracoknights. Most of them have a short spear.

BXtP0lK.pngMj095V3.pngtC5HALy.png
A couple of killing edges.

XxDhvcm.pngTwmKWQi.png
However the boss isn't too tough, if you still have the partisan. He's not on the throne, so I guess he'll move.

nSzGU9Y.pngY2IM8y9.png
You can steal a bodyring from this mercenary, which I'll try to do. You also can steal a few portions and an antitoxin, but I won't focus on these things. This map will be hard enough. Killing enemies has the major priority for me!

[spoiler=There are two houses,]which will give you new allies.




Chapter 9b is a defeat boss mission in time. You've only 12 turns left to kill the boss and finish this chapter.

It was by far the hardest chapter in this hack for me for these reasons:

  • tons of enemies are close to you in the very beginning
  • lots of enemies with a huge attack range (dracoknights with 2 range weapons and 3 long bow archers). [spoiler=Protecting low defense units will be very difficult and almost impossible.]Placing your two healers in the forest is actually the best thing you can do.

  • the turnlimit. [spoiler=You can't turtle at all.]Dracoknight reinforcements will appear from the south-west later.

  • from turn 2 on it'll become a fug of war mission till the end

In general I played this chapter very aggressively and had to gamble a lot. In some situations you'll probably give me a:facepalm:.[spoiler=This playwise worked well for the most part.]I was very lucky in this chapter. I "only" lost one unit, although three more could have died easily.



For this chapter I brought Crowe back to my team because of all the dracos. He can double and ORKO them.
Seymour is kicked out, Kolbane gets a brake and I couldn't bring Gabriel to the map, because I forgot to buy a flux tome in my replayed run of the previous chapter.

So let's start this nightmare:

Turn 1
Player phase
CRfQVdx.png
The main target in this chapter: Kill as much as without breaking your frontline.

Tu2xcCP.pngVsC3UPd.png
Units can pass a part of a destroyed house, so you must keep this mind, if you build your frontline. Idk, if you can do this in the regular FE games.

2COj24n.pngXzSyrQC.png
Driscoll visits the house, where you get Karen:

4D0Lu7X.pngxq5YTFz.pngQutUctD.png
She's a sister. Another healer is very nice in this chapter, but it also forces me to take care of another fragile unit. Her base stas are pretty bleh. She barely can survive one hit and will get doubled by any myrmidons and mercenaries. She only has an E rank in light (same like Asher), but at least a B rank is staves.[spoiler=She can use the physic stave from the previous chapter, which requires weapon level B.]She'll never ever use it, because I lost it in this chapter...





Enemy phase
I turned the battle animations off to give you a better impression about the large number of enemies:
asCiu7w.png
Juan, Chester, Amelia and Ilanice are my frontline. Amelia can take two hits and she has a B-support with Ila.

Qpm7wDc.png
Draco #1

pYp5iFX.png
Draco #2

XTs4G7g.png
Draco #3

p2IqGsU.png
Draco #4 - Well, this was unnecessary! I didn't check the attack range of this one. Idk, if he moves automatically. Anyway Asher dodges thankfully.

Arm6LB6.pngtQlcAEh.pngnrSNrKT.png
A soldier appears, who'll go after Renair because of her sex-appeal.


Turn 2
Player phase
D9tJrvi.png
Now the real fun begins!
Not only you must fight tons of enemies (four dracos among others), but there's fug of war now, so you can't even kill all the enemies in your attack range.

First of all the dracos must be killed:
BiiCg4c.pnggBKBvRo.pngtkxIHVf.png
Three are dead already. Only one is left.

oHkMBdQ.png3prJPc4.png
That's the Driscoll I want to see!

TYAIOek.pngLpZRxRu.png
Excellent time for a critical! Killed all the dracos without taking damage!
Though there are so many problems left!
The next problem will be the two long bow archers. I onlycan kill one of them, because I can't break my entire frontline. Otherwise Karen and Lia can be attacked by more than one enemy.

oUERhLL.png5Lj1zIq.png

O7y5wxe.png5w229tH.png
No risk, no fun!

gIidKXb.png
He must kill this myrmidon, because he can double all three healers.

h4rF2aH.png
No, I'm not kidding - this is my formation! Asher can be attacked by two cavaliers and Karen can be attacked by one unit in melee range and by the long bow archer. At least she's in the forest - however Asher not! Will this turn out well for me?

[spoiler=Chapter 9b part 2]
Enemy phase
Let's check out the results of my "brilliant" tactics:
a9c1nW2.png
Ok, this cavalier misses. Actually I didn't notice that she can be attacked by even three units. The other cavalier can attack her from melee range as well. Hopefully the forest will save her. She still has to dodge at least once!

Tcd8dyk.png
Nevermind! He heals himself, so at least Karen is safe. Now I must be worried about Ilanice and the long bow archer...

igbjqNs.png
... and worry about Amelia!

VYLQu2n.png
Bad!

W4wt5rX.png
Good! I think she can survive the long bow shot.

3Hmk7WS.png
Damn! Please no more enemies!

CyUXwnN.png


Turn 3
Player phase
Puh - all my units survived somehow. I still defend my playwise, because if I had turtled in the previous turn, the situation wouldn't have changed, except I'd have to kill more enemies in this turn. I'll focus on these two remaining long bow archers at first!

4HmRfCI.pngt531c5z.png
I guess no more enemies are next to me so my two healers should be safe.

vwKxEfH.png3OmyiPY.pnghHLGrfY.png
Take the speed. Now he's on the frontline. I must kill the archer and the soldier in this turn!

KWj8plM.png
Killing edge is another problem - not anymore thanks partisan!

lEaswqg.png6w66GqL.png
No more long bow crap - godthanks!

U7eWawp.pngFE1TWs3.png
Crit - so no damage taken

R6L1YAS.pngYSVNHB0.png
I'd call it a real level up!

EhG324l.png

Rb72o0I.png
Driscoll, Renair, Juan and Ila are my frontline. My healers are safe. Chase isn't in the attack range of these two mercenraries, but I've no idea, if enemies from the south and east can reach him. Again hoping for the best!


Enemy phase
8ZFJazd.png
This cavailer heals himself once more. He shall destroy the tent. There's a soldier at the bottom of the image, who can attack Chase.

sf517yf.png
And he hits him - bad!

E6FMyBF.png
Crap! At least he weakens it a lot!

OvbNz3Q.png

X7wZdbr.png


Turn 4
Player phase
No death yet. And I think I get a handle on this situation now. There aren't that many enemies to kill anymore. And they only have regular weapons.

aGpLL5V.pngW6mp4Ai.png
She definitely need a mend stave.

rve7DWY.png
Here's the soldier guy, who apperently doesn't move. Otherwise he'd have attacked Chase already. I guess Renair can talk to him, but she can't reach him yet.

cjouGbe.png

t8LFXsU.png
[spoiler=This mercenary has the body ring. It's mine now!]I hope I didn't miss anything, because it'll be the only stealing in this chapter.



Rp3aXFu.pngcuEmIqt.png

QPLVtAz.png

9P18zap.png

lnSwOuZ.pngoeYbhBz.png
Oh, come on!

With take + drop I place Renair on a spot from where she can talk to the soldier in the turn.

No more enemies in my sight! Can I take a breath now?

Enemy phase
vBNnuwy.png
No, not yet!

n7YbD76.pngYed4DQq.png
Dracoknight reinforcments! Now I'm really under pressure!


Turn 5
Player phase
1KT8iSX.png
Renair can talk him. Hopefully his hormons don't blow up.

r52Q8q7.pngBLKwhxO.pngkh4rcff.pngE7pycaf.pngLAGLEyb.pngOpS2IS8.png

Kanus is a level 9 soldier with average and balanced stats. His major downfall is his low speed. He'll get doubled by the myrmidons at least. [spoiler=I guess I'll take his weapons and that's it!]because I'll get a better lance user later.



GofW86Y.png7V5efo0.png
So many stats, but exact not the ones he needs the most!

8V94emg.pngV4SE59C.png
Crit

I guess soldier reinforcements appear from this area in each turn.

kwMYN3R.png
No enemies in my sight of view!


Enemy phase
xZYqupI.png
Yeah, soldier reinforcements from the south!

isornlL.png

jIyem28.png
Ughhh :unsure: killing edge

is5fT5b.png
Therefore Juan crits with 3%.

PVgjbOi.png
Kanus gets doubled by them, but they can't hit him or only do barely damage, because he's in the forest.

jcGWb71.pngd7V2OYy.png
I think they'll have bigger targets from now on!

JUzjly5.png
More draco douches

jonjp0K.png
I'm lucky once more! This myrm has a magic sword and doubles Juan. Thankfully he dodges once!


Turn 6
Player phase
I'm not worried about the turn limit. Not even the half is passed and I could theoretically attack the boss with Ilanice in the next turn already. However I've no idea, if he'll move. I'm much more afraid of the enemies. The south side isn't a huge problem, but the north is dangerous because of the light sword and the draco. Juan can't take them down all alone. And before I'll kill the boss, I still must visit the houses in the south and the north east.

SWbtaO3.png

dfqPPd0.png

LosDRg6.png
Kanus' first and only kill?

IbNNPfG.png
No more killing edges on this chapter... except for the boss!

Hz1bPZU.png

tb4j6Hf.png

AWqqnJs.png
Now I'm really f**ked! I've retreated with Juan and Co! After I have used Chester, two dracoknights with short spears are in my field of view! They can attack pretty much everyone. Again I need mercy by the RNG-GODDESS!

aEuIPDH.png
Karen is out of danger. Asher and Lia can be attacked. Asher can counterattack and Lia is in the forest. I expect they'll go for her.


Enemy phase
b6yuO1f.png
No big deal.

11CyCE9.png
Same

JzU0fJe.png
#1 hits

pxH5mUL.png
There's another hidden one! Godthanks he misses! Now I'm in serious trouble!!!

T65TEPn.pngqIZMs7B.png
# 2 hits too - Goodbye Lia.

I'm down on my luck! However it's not the worst thing. I lost my reward from the previous chapter - physic. This hurts me much more than her death!
Tbh I'm kinda glad that it happened, because I had incredible luck in some situations in this chapter.


Turn 7
Player phase
The situation isn't become easier for me - quite the opposite: I must fight a lot of dracos and I guess more are coming towards me!
rFGDYYC.png

tYKBuXY.png
Amelia can't even double them. However it doesn't matter in this situation.

PWoFdQv.pnge0m6N0s.png
He gets another kill!

zCsirfu.png
See - more dracos!

fgVZc3u.png

XfnfyXb.png

NxRzIyw.png

0nlzbA7.png
At least these dracos are gone. The myrm with the light sword is still alive. Juan can't oneshot him with partisan so he must retreat.


Enemy phase
MjLtFeu.png

bWnr7By.png

cvAVATR.png
Do you see now, why I said this chapter is the hardest one so far?


Turn 8

Player phase
HSHbJ3i.png

bIYSgRu.pngdlfa29I.png
Even if she even can't double them, she still can kill them with crits!

lpvOGp2.pngujZIBH0.pngl6ILqxh.png
Chase misses so Chester gets the kill and an excellent level up. Another huge problem less! Now I can finally visit the other village - except there are more enemies in this area too.

naaP8pN.pngYQnkaYY.png

LJ5yEIb.pngZb8FFkF.png
[spoiler=What's the point of this building?]Is it only the place, where the soldier reinforcements do appear?

I'm with Eclipse, Seymour sucks. At his best he doubles with an iron lance, but he doesnt kill the enemy. Arcus is so much better since his prf has effectiveness. Nosferatu sword misses too much to be of any use. But IMO the units you get in this route are better than the ones you'd get in the other route. Chase so good.
