[FE5] do i just skip chapter 6

[Tusk]

so i am doing an ironman run of fe5 and i did not rescue enough people to do chapter 4x. Do i just skip the chapter by having Karin rescue everyone from the map and save weapon uses, or do i just fight my way through for xp. the weapons on my sword units are low and there isn't a lot of sword uses i can take from.

I would suggest trying to do a bit of the map, as missing 4x triggers Ced and a small army of green units to help out on this map.

At the very least, I'd suggest having Karin hit up all the villages she can reach without being spotted by the enemy. No sense letting good items go to waste.

Well, getting items from the villages also depends on saving people in chapter 4 and chapter 4x.

Shoot, I forgot about that. Only played Thracia once.

I would say there's not much reason to do things solely for exp in this game, you won't need much. If you didn't go to 4x, there's basically no reason to not just book it out of chapter 6 as fast as possible since there won't be any items to get (you might want something at the vendor but you can get that on the way out anyway.)
