It's by no means a bad game. Heck, it's my 3rd or 4th favourite game on the GBA. (And 3rd, 4th or 5th on DS)
The game simply lacks a bit of what FE7 implemented. Essentially, FE7 improved upon FE6 in every way. That makes FE6 feel slightly inferior.
FE6 picks up a lot though. Up untill 8, it wasn't that great. Then it just gets better and better. Chapter 16 rocks (it's very hard).
The only way I can kill the boss is by either tanking him so he expires his weapon, or by having some luck as Lillina. I think I'll do the former, as I have a 13% chance of death with Lillina (roughly, that's self-estimated).
Still, it's bloody awesome that I have to use that much tactics on a boss, when it's not even close to endgame.
