So I finally am starting to play Fire Emblem: Awakening, but before even starting the game, I've hit a road-block: choosing the difficulty. I have played Path of Radiance (GC), Radiant Dawn (Wii), and Shadow Dragon (DS) before. I forget which difficulties I played those games on, but permadeath was always present (with a few exceptions.) So I've searched online about the difficulties, and people seem to say either Hard - Classic or Lunatic-Casual are good difficulty combinations. In the first case the game feels like classic fire-emblem, while in the latter case the gameplay feels quite different, more like a strategy board game (i.e chess.) Is this true? Which do you prefer and why?

Why not both? The game has multiple save-games, I use it to try different difficulty-combinations. I play a map and then play it again in the other combination. Works for me.

Sure I guess that is a good idea, since gameplay supposedly is affected a lot by it - and if I find I have more fun from one setting much more than the other I can just drop the other save file.

The reason why I chose not to do Lunatic & Classic is because I read that you'll just constantly be resetting the console to keep characters ( I found myself doing this enough in previous Fire Emblem games.) I've also read that even with the casual setting, Lunatic is harder than Hard & Classic.
