Honestly FE isn't even that hard, there's definitely harder strategy games out there. It even gives you stages with opportunities to grind for money/experience/etc. And because it does that you can honestly lvl up any units you want. Its just that some units have better stat progressions for their respective classes than others do which means they'll be more useful.

I'm not saying I don't play the game in the same way RT/Tallman do, just saying you can play it multiple ways and be successful. Some ways are going to be more simple than others.

Honestly If you keep the paper/rock/scissors in mind your units shouldn't be dying. You probably just need more experience with the series.

so in this new FE i can sit there and grind on certain lvls? Do you get money for killing people? If not then whats the point of grinding? Your weapons would ALL be gone by the time u get to a high enough lvl.

yea ive only played 2 of them and didnt beat either.





Is there a way i can have like 2 clerics and 5 marths? if so, im all in. i just hate managing mass amounts of units that require that much BS. in AW its easy as F

Sacred Stones is the only one I beat.

On easy mode.

Mainly cause I like mindless fighting usually. Though I did play the first one with Ike on GC. Got far but didn't beat it, forgot why, but it was fun.

LOL the game gives you a certain amount of healers and swordsmen. But yes, you get to a point when your party is together and you can choose whoever you want. You can put 10 marths together if you want. You might end up getting ***** tho.

Once you beat enemies you sometimes get weapons from them, money from missions and coliseum matches(best way for money/exp tho it can be risky, gotta know how to exploit it). Basically about weapons, you want to use the lower lvl weapons that are easy to buy/obtain on the weak guys, and your more rare weapons on bosses/special enemies. Also the game gives you plenty of money to buy reg. weapons.

Sacred stones is good. One of my favs. I always play games on the hardest difficulty(including FE) just because I like the challenge though FE still isn't that hard at thanks to the rpg elements. They only jack up the percentage rates in favor of your enemies but you can still **** them. Just have to be slightly more careful. I

ah ok so you are saying i cant do what i WANT in this game. I have to find the best **** and use it cause i cant beat the game any other way.

def not buying now. thanks guys
Really now?

I want to beat all campaign maps in Advance Wars with infantry only, but I can't, so HERP DERP NO SALE. I can do it too.

Sacred Stones is one of the easier FEs. The earlier ones are harder, I know one game gave the enemy unlimited reinforcements on Maniac mode.

no dude u are taking my comment to the extreme. based on my questions and your answers, AW is far more lenient on what you can use and how u can use it. From what im reading in your answers i literally cant beat the game with a horse girl+cleric+marth+some other dude. I would have to have like 10 units and of those units they need to be GOOD. Thats dumb to me. In all RPGs i play i pick a team or w/e and stick with it no matter how bad it is and make it work. from what im getting from you, thats not possible in this FE game.


but then gnes says i can have 10 marths (which is something i WANT) so i dont know what to believe anymore.




and yea i have SS for the 3ds but i aint playin that ****

You can do what Gnes said, but he said you might get *****.

So yeah, you can use 10 Marths, but you'll get ****ed by indirect atrackers like archers and magic users and high defense units.

Only true old gens know Roy's true melee tag. ^_^.

Allan its possible. Just harder than it would be to instead just stick with a well balanced team and just **** everything the game throws your way. Plus the game doesn't offer many of the truly broken classes(assassins, etc.)

Actually now that I think of it, Ike is so broken in his FE game. Dear god what were they thinking?

it's funny cuz waba had more entrants than whobo
that WOULD bother me but your event was mk legal........lol so yea it has nothing to do with whobo. nice try though. you still got some work to do, new gen.


Sure, why not.

:phone:






Thats literally what my team will be. Nothing but marth and healers.

Allan play Melee. I bet my Ness can beat your trashy Samus.
No doubt he would. I do not play smash anymore and its been YEARS upon YEARS since i sat down and went hardcore with melee.


Only true old gens know Roy's true melee tag. ^_^.
you mean the tag he was using when u met him at PNT or GS all those years ago? LOL no thats NEW GEN stuff. How about Royr 06 tag. YOU DONT KNOW ABOUT THAT **** YA NEW GEN NERD. You were still suckin on yo moms nips during those GLORIOUS years.

Allan its possible. Just harder than it would be to instead just stick with a well balanced team and just **** everything the game throws your way. Plus the game doesn't offer many of the truly broken classes(assassins, etc.)
Ok so its possible.

Gonna get the game and Dolphin SLash all day.

Ike was pretty dang good in Path of Radiance. I hear he's truly god tier in Radiant Dawn. Him and that one dracoknight. Jill's father? I forgot his name.

Allan: Ike's ability, AETHER basically is an ability made up of two other abilities. Basically it's like an attack that heals you for 1x damage your attack would be, and deals damage basically at 3x normal. It's pretty broken.

what does it matter if it was mk legal or not? Seems like you should have made your event mk legal and maybe you woulda broke 100 entrants

Your event and your results are no different than any other mk legal events and thus will be lost in time. Mine however MADE history and will be remembered for a many eons (literally children will read about this **** in college and go "OMFG xyro was a Saint.") Also, why are you impressed WABA barely broke 100? Ive done that **** with MONTHLIES multiple times. Nothing you have done or will do will ever be more than a pile of ****. Take yo WABA and go slap yo MAMA.



edit: next time you jump into a convo, please read the posts before and after it. I wasn't insulting your event at that point (i am now though). i was talking about here in tx no one cared about it cept 4-5 people cause our scene died after i left.

It's Haar and he's Jill's commander, ya new gen.

Ike was broken because he could max out everything with litle effort and Ragnell + Aether = everything dies. One hit recovered health, other hit ignored defense.

Imagine if that carried over to Brawl...first part recovered percent, other part was shield unblockable.

Actually I met Roy before I met Gea/RT/Tallman/the smash community. Your new gen knowledge knows no bounds.
On another note Allan has hated mk from the dawn of time. I remember beating him at one of my first tourneys with mk. The salt was there even then WAHAHAHAHAHA.

Brawl killed Ike, he was so cool in FE. I was gonna say Haar but Mr. RT beat me to it.

And yes. Mk would still **** him lol so sad.

It wouldn't have mattered, he still would have lost to the bat.
Yeah, he was actually very fast in the games. He should have been faster in Brawl. Like Marth fast.
