What was the hardest Fire Emblem game you ever played?

[Mr_Mojo_Risin]

Shadow Dragon for the DS on Lv.5 Hard Mode(H5) is ridiculously hard...a great challenge. 

[X-Naut]

FE12 Lunatic was by far the hardest on its highest difficulty.
On the default difficulty, that honor goes to Thracia 776 although it's largely fake difficulty.

I've played most of Conquest now, and I'll still have to say Binding Blade is the most difficult I played in Normal Mode. With Conquest at least:

• Raising Mozu (or any other underlevelled units) is a hell of a lot easier (at least in earlier chapters) due to Attack Stancing with Corrin/Arthur and Felicia's debuffing being a thing.
• It seems like everyone in Conquest is much better balanced than in Binding Blade. Arthur is an exception, with his abysmal luck, but even that has an easy solution as you just have to overdose him with Godess Statues and you don't really have to do the same thing with anyone else in terms of viability.
• If everything else fails, just spend time connecting with the internet, get skills from other players, have the in-My Castle time pass, and acquire more random dropped weapons and what not. Seriously, there are many players that intentionally allow you to win the My Castle battles for this purpose (and also to grind Supports).
• You also don't have to do you shopping in-Chapter, saving a lot of pre-planning.

....Just, it's a madhouse at points. And stat inflation is not why.

why was there a rash of necroposts all in threads from last summer this weekend?
