I'm about 2 hours in (Chapter 4) and have some questions if someone wouldn't mind indulging me.

- Once you 'join' characters so they get the performance boost when close to each other, are you free to change that at any time should you not like the combo or is it permenant? Supports can be erased and restarted. If you get an A support between 2 characters, change them to support other people, and later want them to support each other again... you have to start over. Good to know, I just want to experiment for now to see what sorts of characters work best to support each other.  I'm thinking Edward/Leonardo

- I set the game to Easy since I'm a FE noob, but now I'm breezing through every battle without any character being at risk of death at all. It's still early in the game so will the battles get harder or can I switch mid-game to Normal or Hard or do I have to start a new game to goto a harder difficulty level? I did the same when I tried Easy difficulty. There will be a couple challenging maps on the Easy difficulty, but really it will be a piece of cake. It is easy after all. I'd suggest finishing the game and doing Normal difficulty for your replay. I found that I could power my way through easy maps that had been somewhat tricky on normal so the difficulty difference is pretty noticeable.  If you really want to restart, first play until you hit the end of Part 1 before making that decision.  If the difficulty is still too easy by that time, restart. Good advice.  I'll wait until I finish Part 1.  Most likely I'll only have time for one play-through so I'll do Normal and then if the oppurtunity presents itself - Hard.

Loving the game so far.

Btw, the first question is answered by one of the in-game tutorials on supports. Oops. Guess I havn't gotten that far yet.

Thanks again!!
