Wow, this thread died off before I felt I was long enough into the game to read without getting over-spoiled.
This is my 2nd favourite FE. Just a tad behind FE:RD.
I mean, it is completely different than the other ones, but that may be because of the mecanics are like that (Fe 4 + 5 is one type, 6, 7 and 8 is another, and 9 & 10 another one. Thus, 1-3 is also one).
The game even opens for far more advanced tactics than the other titles, as you have a lot more room.
Right now I'm at chapter 24.... 22 & 23 were piece of cake (warp staff + 2 generals and no enemy mages = win), but I'm having a bit of trouble here.
I managed to kill the boss in the 1st round (Shiida flew down with dragonpike and killed him), and I could just warp down Marth and win... But that wouldn't be fun.
Either way I go, the enemy respawns 6 enemies every 3rd round. That's damn impossible to deal with.
I warped Ogma (general) + Linde (sage) down to the temple, and rooting them from there.
Anyway, my characters are now:
Marth - Lv 12
Shiida (Dracoknight) 20/12
Barst (General) 20/19
Lena (Sage) 20/14
Linde (Sage) 20/15
Ogma (general) 20/19
Minerva (Dragoknight/Paladin (I swap)) 20/8
Wrys (Bishop) 20/2
Roshea (Bishop) 20/1
And that's really all I use. It's just 9 characters, but they work like a charm.
I'm on Hard **, and it is definitely hard, but I'll give Hard *** or **** a try as well.
