Magic swords/axes/lances?

Oh yeah... So I guess that does make sense :D

What about the fact that some units can jump higher than a kangaroo?

Where the **** was Micaiah's one million person army from 3-7 when I needed them in 3-6?

Why does everyone always want to bring the smallest amount of people to avoid casualties? 10 dead units=10 dead units, whether you have 15 units on the map or 300.

Because those fifteen are your crack team of trained heroes. The other 300 are generic loldiers, who will probably trip over their own lances and die.

Because they want to avoid casualties, duh. Maybe in the game's story they actually care about people's lives.

Most of this is from RD:

How can the three teams in part 4 share the same convoy when they're miles apart?

Why can you only take 10 units plus a heron into the tower (in addition to the six forced) when Ashera's best followers are in there?

How can the BK be defeated so easily by a HAMMER?

Why aren't Tormod, Muarim and Vika in the laguz alliance?

How did wyverns get resistance to bows and wind magic and weakness to thunder magic?

Why is thunder the weakest (tied with light) AND least accurate magic in the game?

Why is Stefan only recruitable when you land on a random space in the desert?

Why do most enemies only have one weapon and only a few carry vulneraries?

Why do the enemies attack even though they'll die on their phase?

Why are the ally and other units so stupid?

Why doesn't Micaiah gain authority stars when she promotes?

Why do Nailah, Naesala and Sanaki have authority stars when they're never the commanders?

Why can Double Bow counter direct attacks but Urvan can't counter ranged attacks?

Why are there unpromoted units as enemies when the whole team is promoted (part 2 and 3-E)?

Why Elincia has no problem killing her fellow Crimeans but refuses to kill the Disciples of Order and Feral Ones (with Mercy)

According to the plot the rest of them have to stay behind to defend the entrance of the tower. You might remember the bodies of the soldiers they had killed would constantly come back to life. I thought that was pretty clear and despite being a bit bulshhity made sense.

Except ten dead people is still dead people. Whether you have an army of 1000 or 10.

And I hardly doubt anyone cares about ANYONES lives in this game. Really. If a unit dies, they say a death quote and no one speaks of them again. Green units are placed in insane places where they're BOUND to die. Everyone is constantly trying to fight massive armies with 10 or so people...it's stupid.

How did wyverns get resistance to bows and wind magic and weakness to thunder magic? Arrows don't pierce their hard armor/

Why is thunder the weakest (tied with light) AND least accurate magic in the game? Because of critties.

Why is Stefan only recruitable when you land on a random space in the desert? He's standing there, waiting for someone to grab and rape.

Why do most enemies only have one weapon and only a few carry vulneraries? Because they sound funny.

Why do the enemies attack even though they'll die on their phase? Siucidal/

Why are the ally and other units so stupid? No training.

Why doesn't Micaiah gain authority stars when she promotes? She's a star on the inside.

Why do Nailah, Naesala and Sanaki have authority stars when they're never the commanders? Because it's the little things that count.

Why can Double Bow counter direct attacks but Urvan can't counter ranged attacks? Because the Urvan is heavy and if they throw it, they'll have to go get it.

Why are there unpromoted units as enemies when the whole team is promoted (part 2 and 3-E)? Nubs.

Why Elincia has no problem killing her fellow Crimeans but refuses to kill the Disciples of Order and Feral Ones (with Mercy) It was just her time of the month.

Nice responses, Destiny Hero. About the Urvan thing, that doesn't stop Wishblade from being ranged. Urvan has only 2 more Wt than Wishblade. Urvan could've been like a boomerang like the other ranged axes. Where does the Wishblade go when they throw it?

Here's some more:

Why do Rolf and Aran have the highest strength growths in the game?

Why does Boyd have a higher defense growth than most of the characters despite wearing less armor/clothes? (no complaints there cause his muscles are so f'ing hot!)

Why don't laguz gain the same exp as beorc even when they do less damage than them?

Why was Ike made the general of the Crimean army? Seriously, a random 17 year old mercenary being in charge of an entire army makes no sense at all.

Why does it take forever to level up laguz strike levels, especially when they can't use any other weapons?

Why do mounted units gain -2 move while indoors?

It's a requirement to most (yes, most and not all) of epic RPG games, teenagers who save the world.

Narrow paths.

Requirement? Cliché is more like it.

........Right. XD;;;

Anyway...How can Elfire is heavier than Fire? They both are books, and Elfire isn't as thick as Fire. Elfire is about 30 pages, while Fire is 40.

Because its LFire, thus, Large Fire D:

D=

But it's a tome, a BOOK! Large fire is the magic, not the size of the said book! XDXD;;;;;

It's psychosomatic. Mages realise the increased magical power of the book, and as a result, they experience it as heavier in their arms. It's why Calill is so great at doubling; she's not a douchebag like the rest of them.

Well, that.

Or she is too ignorant for her own good. XD;;;

Why Elincia and Mist can get SS in swords but not staves and they start with a higher level in staves than swords.

Why Sothe couldn't promote in PoR but starts promoted in RD while Jill and Ilyana are the only PoR characters that start unpromoted.

Why non magic users have a magic stat in RD when there aren't any magic weapons.

Why non magic users have a magic stat in PoR when most of the characters have low magic and do more damage with normal weapons.

Why magic users have a strength cap that is higher than it needs to be. It should only be as high as the heaviest tome they can use.

Why Boyd starts so far from his tier 2 caps compared to most characters (on average, he only maxes HP before he promotes).

Why Titania could use lances in PoR but not in RD.

Why most of the characters have horrible availability in RD and can only be useful with Paragon and bexp.

Why Laura is a priest with a 70 speed growth.

Why Sanaki can use all magic except dark but can't use staves (Is she the only magic user that can't use staves?)

Why Pelleas starts with a B in staves after promotion but the other archsages start with E staves (they can only use heal).

The skill Imbue will heal you for HP equal to your magic stat at the start of each turn. Mages can't use this skill though for obvious reasons

I thought of this when I played through PoR recently.

How do the beast and bird armies meet Ike after he crosses the mountain range? They would have to march right through Crimea. Which I bet Ashnard appreciated.
