rules1 only female units are allowed to do combat2 bring leanne to the towerexceptions1 using black knight in 1-9 is allowed2 Ike (see below)3 non combat actions (like shoving stealing rescue drop galdrar order direct light extinguish and use items)4 getting attacked is fine for male characters but they cannot counterattack, if they do counterattack then the map must be reset, even if they deal insignificant/no damage to an unimportant enemy far away from the objectiveIkeIke must never attack on player phase, except against ashera and the black knight.Ike is allowed to counter attack
>>24053993anyways you may be wondering why I'm deciding to redo this chapter, i did beat it after alli decided that saving astrid was worth it, more worth it for the paragon scroll attached to her body than anything else, but still. and that if i really wanted to i could goon much harderso I'm combining those two. I'm going to get astrid to max level and I'm going to keep her alive.how you may ask?
>>24053998this guy. he has a longbow. when longbows attack from 3 spaces away they suffer a -30 accuracy penalty in this game. on top of that there are ledges in this game which give +50 avoid when you are attacked by an enemy which is below the ledge. so with +80 avoid basically this guy will never hit and i can simply end turn over and over again until he's missed so much that 2 xp at a time (paragon doubles even chip xp) i grow to level x/20/20
>>24054002spent many turns hitting this guy over and over for weapon xp on the bow, but now it's at S rank so i should carefully lure the longbow guy into position, but first kill the other enemies.
>>24054009the yellow units died long ago, using the bushes for infinite healing. giving the last few kills to astrid
>>24054014completely forgot about the hiden items.oh shit. i forgot so hard that i didn't get dicipline last chapter. oh well. randomly danved picked up the arms scroll because he happened to step here.
>>24054020these two guys have overlapping ranges, which is what killed astrid last time. this time they will be attacking geoffery, who will survive.
>>24054025astrid is so garbage even against enemies she outlevels.
>>24054030i got close to the door to the boss and these guys appeared. i can handle it with marcia. but first i must surround this longbow user with horses.
>>24054039and there we go. see you in 1650 turns or so.
>>24054045I have a code running which is automatically ending turn over and over giving astrid 2 XP per about every 3.2 seconds, with slightly longer waits when levels or promotions happen. I'm posting from my phone, because my computer is automatically pressing buttons. But the code needs some bug fixing spending time doing that.
>>24054289Based on calculations I've made it will take about 4400 seconds to complete. Just over an hour of doing something else and I'll have a level 20 20 astrid, that or I'll come back and the program will have moved my unit out of the way somehow. I've made save states and if my code gets a unit killed here I'm willing to load one but it seems like it's working fine it's properly tracking how much XP is being gained in the background at the same rate the actual game is showingThink I'll cook some rice
Ate some carrots and came backLevel 18 promotedI'm nearly at the next chapter
>>24054045+3 speed -5 defense. everything else is basically around average. only S instead of SS bows and C lances. but for the middle of part 2? this unit is busted.
>>24054516i don't even need the longbow to hit me from height disadvantage anymore. I'm just too much outclassing these part 2 enemies.
>>24054519these are some pathetic numbers.
>>240545211763 turns later it is done.it's funny because in lore the reason that these units can't be used next chapter is because they are returning from this area to where elincia is next chapter. except for marcia. how did she get back? how did the revolution not happen for 1700 turns?
>>24054523not even going to deploy the stinky men. who needs them when i have capped heather and leanne?
>>24054532>so quicklyit was 1700 turns elincia. people have beaten fe4 quicker, and that game takes over 13 years from start to finish.
>>24054533i took 1600 turns to get that i might as well use it.
Weird place to host OP, but I wish you luck in your endeavor in the name of all bnaters everywhere.
>>24054535i can't sneed.
>>24054541stole a reaper card i didn't even know was there with heather.
>>24054545neph will choke this point
>>24054548heather is not killing these enemies fast, though she is blocking them. usually in normal playthroughs i have harr here though it's risky with lightnings here and there.
>>24054553with the help of a shove heather got deeper into enemy territory, now she can attack against the scroll wielding axe general.
>>24054557yes my level 20 bow user has arrived. time to trade her some javelins so she isn't stuck with shitty ass bows.
>>24054562scroll axe general moved to corner.
>>24054563astrid going deep. she only has like less than 20 uses of a javelin left which sucks
>>24054565there is a turn limit but furthermore the chapter ends if the boss dies. but this axe general here has a dracosheild which he does not drop, it must be stolen from him. i think i still have time to do that.
>>24054568dropping in one turn using the dancer.
>>24054572yoink!
>>24054574the most common result i would assume, killing this guy with elincia. you get a tomahawk(tuah) for doing it so since I've basically completed all other side objectives this just saves me the trouble of having to think and position in a way that keeps me safe for 3 more turns.
>>24054576oh man this army. the women here are very questionable. at least i finally have Ike. at titania is good. mia and mist are complete jokes.oh yeah one more rule, though it hasn't yet come up. using heal staffs is also forbiden for men.
Are ya winning son
>>24054629I'm probably going to stop for now. played 2 chapters and some of the next chapters will be critical for the future of the run. 3-1 in particular scares me with it's time constraints with such limited forces, hopefully it isn't a softlock without just sending in mist with the florette and hoping she dodges everything and crits everything. i think you get lethe and lyre as reinforcements but they suck ass. even with a full squad I've struggled with that map before.
