Cred Forums plays Fire Emblem

LAST TIME
>OP continued to fuck up
>Another game over happened
>Sven managed to make it through a gauntlet and solo a wave of reinforcements

>What's going on?
I'm demoing a romhack of Fire emblem 7, taking inputs from you. You decide who I use and who gets stat items.
And of course, no resetting for lost units.

Did they colorswap Legault? Into a black guy?
That's lazy and racist at the same time.

>What is this?
This is a ROMhack of Fire emblem 7, created by an user named Tact and a few of his buddies
>Where can I find it?
dropbox.com/s/1sj9klkzcsqnr6e/TactHackV4.gba?dl=0
>Where can I find your version?
dropbox.com/s/wf0bz813wyjb66i/TactHackV4NiggerEdition.gba?dl=0
This version has a custom sprite for the tactician, but no other changes.
>Is this hack complete?
No, currently it's up to chapter 14, with gaidens but no supports.
>I'm new to Fire Emblem. What's a good game to start with?
Fire emblem: The Blazing sword(aka Fire Emblem in the USA) is a fantastic starting point, featuring a comprehensive tutorial. Alternatively, Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones also has a briefer tutorial and is all around easier.
>I heard this series is just shitty waifu pandering
that's Awakening and Fates.
>what does each stat do?
HP-health. lose it all and your unit dies(permanently)
STR/MAG- how much damage you do with attacks. this is augmented by your enemy's defenses and your own weapon's MT
SKL- your chance to hit with attacks, as well as score crits
SPD- if your SPD is high enough, you'll be able to double-attack enemies, also affects your chance to avoid enemy attacks.
LUK-affects accuracy and avoidability, and reduces enemy crit chance.
DEF-affects defense against physical attacks
RES-affects defense against magical attacks
CON- unit's weight. this affects who they can rescue or be rescued by, and if your CON is too low, you will suffer SPD penalties while using heavier weapons.
>What game are you playing next?
Radiant Dawn. Afterwards, I'm considering either Soul Harvest(which was recommended to me) or Mother 3.

game over count: 7
Currently dead:
Boleslav - Yabba Dabba Done in
Kurtis - Blasted by magic
Martel - Killed by the Desians for being an inferior being
Beatrice(RETREATED) - Felt her beauty was wasted on the battlefield

I designed the Nigger sprite, actually.
admittedly, my version wasn't as...ebonic, and had armor as he was originally a wyvern rider.

>Desians
DEMON FANG

>Niggault
I like it, user.

DAT fucking moustache.

DAMN I MUST BE A GENIUS! DOUBLE DEMON FANG!

youtube.com/watch?v=_J37az8fHTw

Shame you can't recruit him since you lost his wife.

any party changes?

HERE'S THE TRAITOR YOUR MAJESTY

I think you will be alright, just don't lose Negu.

Alright, let's DO THIS

There are a LOT of fucking wyverns and peg knights in this stage. Too bad my main archer ate a bad bowl of Fruity Pebbles™ cereal.

...

Nilda immediately showing off why she's worth using.

Fast as FUCK

oh fuck, is she built as a soldier with a big ass?

because I am okay with that. Aran is great.

You still have Ace for those fliers and yourself for the Wyverns

FINALLY, I didn't miss one of these threads

ok, what's the damage so far, Nigger?

She's supposed to be exactly like Based Blue Neph.

Check second post. I'm not too far into this stage, so no deaths yet

Sven wrecks the pegs too

so def but no strength is an anomaly? I am still okay with that.

That is at least what I've heard.

TactAnon could tell you more, obviously.

oh fuck, it's the literally-who's from the gaiden!

Hot Blonde too.

.....

>these fucking bases
hooooly shit

...

BLUE STREAK

Why did Bastian dye his hair and why is he and Lucia in this game?

>A youth from Silensia. Kind, but murderous.

I had eventually dropped Yabba Dabba for her, she's really good.

holy FUCK

man, these green units are just losing this battle of attrition.

He's a keeper.

Vlad the Implier doesn't like competition

POSITION THINESELVES ON MINE LEVEL!

Was it just me getting lucky, or were both the thief units actually good?

Hint

compare their res to everyone else

CUTE

...

I think Sven wants to relax after all this time

>tfw she can't max STR anymore

OH HELL

Even he doesn't look too happy

He about to do it.

Even shitwreckers need a break sometimes.

the gains are safe for another day

Supreme tactics as expected from Nigger.

youtube.com/watch?v=YKuPQzhk8rY

...

Yeah, she wasn't nearly as good as the priestess of fast was for me either. Might have gone a bit far in overbalancing her for being a mounted unit, Tact.

Why couldn't you have been getting levels like this the whole time, Negu?

and the MASTER OF FASTER gets glasses!

1000000 years in ms paint

hey nigger if its not to much to ask could you possibly post the archive links to your last promise playthrough

update, almost done. This stage was a lot easier than previous ones.

boards.fireden.net/v/thread/346019883/
here's the last one, there's links to all the previous threads in the OP.

Guy on the right looks pretty blazed senpai. Did he hang out with Anakin?

inb4 5 deaths

...

Faster

2 enemies left

and we're clear to the boss. I wonder if Algimas has dialogue with these guys.

Is it normal in GBA FE to hope that your Myrms don't get strength fucked? I recently played SS and Joshua's strength was so fucking terrible that I benched him for Marisa.

He does, I think.

>Wayland actually getting speed and skill

surely this is the nigger's tricks

STR isn't normally a selling feature of myrms. They use their high crit and spd to get their kills.

He has with Wayland

But what's the point of a Myrm when their Strength is so bad that they literally can't kill anyone without hope for RNG on a Killing Edge? That's the shit I've been dealt in recent FEs.

you should support this guy with Algimas next chapter

they're super crazy fast crit machines, and dodge like crazy.

supports aren't in this game.

But then their Killing Edge eventually breaks and they can't do anything until I can buy more.

goddamn, haylyn is a MONSTER

>nigger's face when he asks Haylyn for heals and she's so fucking fast you dont know where she went after you got healed

they still have pretty good crit rates with non-killer weapons.

You'll get the option to, you'll just get other character's dialogue

stage boss

>that name
oh no

inb4 JoJo memes

>Dio

Tact, what have you done?

youtube.com/watch?v=CGW0h80gKW4

I edited it
His name is actually Gio

...

Well, they certainly don't look very similar.

...

Didn't you say your brother was a blacksmith, not a merc?

Remember kids, each level where Nigger doesn't get speed is one more waifu alive.

So, Kurtis or Nilda?

>Foskey is red
I thought I couldn't recruit him now?

the one that hasn't died like a BITCH

>implying Merciless Soldier's death wasn't entirely your fault

...

Another solid scene. Ernst opening up to the filthy nigger, foreshadowing Algimas' backstory more, all without making anyone feel super special.

FUCK YOU

KEK

....Coster?

That's how archers should look like if you want them to be good.

Coster taught him to write.

how the fuck does one learn how to read without also knowing how to write? I mean...those things kind of go hand in hand.

Reading isn't writing.

>not running around with killer weapons in every slot

>Braxians
are those the idiots that can't speak?

no, but to learn how to write, you first need to learn what the various scribbles mean. Writing is then merely a process of imitating those symbols.

Every time I see this name I think 'wizpig'

>'alkin sht about Odin
Oi m8 ill gobber u up swer on me mum

Learning how to read is way easier than learning how to write

t. Someone trying to learn Arabic

Ah, the old Fire Emblem tradition of using real-world names, in lieu of fantasy ones.

Tacthack i=just has a hard on for history


You will see a ton of history references in the game

Tacthack has a very, very heavy european theme.

>play PoR
>remember that Nigger let this top tier subhuman slayer die to true beauty

Will it ever stop hurting?

I just can't help but snicker a bit when playing the Tellius games, and seeing Crimea get annexed.

if it makes you feel better, she died to a foe who truly knew how to treat subhumans.

REMEMBER THE CRIMEA WARS

>seeing crimea get annexed
by an enemy characterized by cold temperatures, who value strength above all, and giving even commoners a chance at equality

Good question. It might be due to the cutscene, but TactHack said you can't recruit him because Beatrice is "Dead"

He might remain Green/NPC/Unfieldable.

taking a short break, back in 5

Algimas has actually been rather mediocre thus far.

Is it normal that Astrid can be a solid tank? Her HP isn't very tank worthy, but she's got the Defense to eat hits, high Speed to not get doubled, and high Strength to deal a lot of damage.

I've always found astrid to be a mounted myrm.

Knight Ward makes miracles possible. And Astrid is actually pretty decent in here.

Now Nigger, be sure to pay attention, there are multiple shops to use.

>that speed on Brom when mine has 10 at Level 1 General

any party changes?

Pop out Haylyn for Elaine.

please.

Remove Vlad for Ace

Remove one person for Ace

JUST GET ACE IN THERE

Bench Vlad and Negu, Bring out Chiara and Rob

>benching Ace

The cute girl must be in there.

take Negu out for Ace

anything else?

>Benching Chiara
>For Vlad

what are their stats

Bench Mist for Rhys.

PANIC

That brings me back.

RIP Mist

FUCK. Keep doing that when I swap around between pages.

Yeah see? Foskey isn't a recruit.

Kick out Sven for Negu.

Backing this up.

...

we good?

Need to get the Goddess in there.. but who to swap her with?

Sell the Blue Gem too.

We good.

Oh, get Ace to go into the Village. For reasons.

we established Sven is a killing machine, why do this?

'Cause this map's got ballistae.

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD
SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE

I mean shit, why do you think siggy had so many dead? you guys forced him into terrible deployments.

You're lucky since you've had so many units die; we can't force too many shitty ones on you.

We're getting a better flyer this chapter.

Foskey is non-gonk Gonzales with a mustache, and he managed to land Beatrice. That's pretty impressive on his part, I suppose.

Wouldn't you want to land the Knight of Knights?

He's also got kids so he managed to lance beatrice at least twice.

I think we are good Nig. Go. With great Justice.

We good

sorry about the pause, food arrived and I got caught up in a deep conversation with my immigrant roommate

LET'S GO

nigger you making me hungry

Aceline is the acest girl!

What'd you get?

dominos. Roommate's never had non-italian pizza before, and pizza hut is too expensive, and the other local pizza places suck balls. Dominos at least has good pan pizza.

Been waiting weeks to use this.

oh shit, good thing I didn't deploy Sven. Guaranteed I'd have fucked up.

You were deployed because you were cute and strong, Aceline.

SHE KNOWS

oh my, in the middle of a battlefield?

I think she shows up even if you don't deploy Negu.

can love bloom on the battlefield?

She does, you just have to not have Negu dead by this chapter.

She does. Auto Recruit and Money, even if Negu isn't on the field.

I can't hear that phrase anymore without thinking about THAT fanfiction

>Healer named Haylan.

Wait, what fanfiction?

do I even want to know?

BOSS GET DOWN! The enemy ballista. Stay low and sneak in the forest. That should enable you to reduce its accuracy.

>THAT fanfic
which one?

The /tg/ fanfiction so goddamn popular it got a nod in official novelizations.

1d4chan.org/wiki/Story:Love_Can_Bloom

When a hummie and eldar find love


on the battlefield


And somehow humie defeats a Greyknight AND an Eversore

You see Timmy, when a Vindicare assassin and a Eldar love each other enough things happen.

Wait, why does Negu need a bodyguard?

To protect her from boys, of course.

because nigger killed her before.

I laughed

apparently her dad's a merchant and his enemies tried to use her and Gerwulf as bargaining chips, so they decided to fuck off

>Vindicare
>Eldar
Those words mean nothing to me.

To make sure Negu stays pure until their marriage.

cant have her cucking us with the Yakuza now

forget I asked

super elite human assassin and super-advanced psychic alien who looks like an elf.

the autism of /tg/ runs deep, my friend.

Okay.

...

...

BRAZZERS!

new units!

What about the pegapony?

>GBA Fighters
Well, the bench is now in use

Behold the Green and Red Social.. uh.. Fighters!

Yes.

Hey, look, our obligatory Bord and Cord; I was waiting for a fighter.

And they're not plebs! Even if they're bad like all the other GBA fighters, that's some nice equipment they got there.

And our new pegapony

...jesus christ, what the fuck?!

Rorick seems fine.

This is why I immediately put her to use.

She's like Florina, if Florina was gotten at a proper time and level.

Odin I dunno, but rorick is a fucking monster.

...

I like combining the Christmas cavs and Bord and Cord archetypes.

If I ever did a romhack, I'd go even further and combine them with the Ogma and Nabarl archetypes, and toss a green and red merc and myrm at the beginning.

Death on Wings is here.

Finally, I can play a FE where the role of the fliers is switched; the wyvern is the earlygame one, and the peg is the midgame monster.

But man, we're really rolling in with some nice equipment, now.

>when a unit's bases are so good that even their first level being mediocre doesn't make them bench juice
More like if Farina was gotten way ahead of time and at a lower level. What's wrong with Florina's placement?

I just feel she's too weak for when she joins, considering the map she joins in on has a ton of axe users, giving her a huge disadvantage.

You are going to see a recurring theme with some units in the game where the levels in which they come in are some of their hardest ones.

the vendors in this stage have steel weapons. TIME TO UPGRADE WITH THAT 20K I'VE GOT IN THE LAST FEW CHAPTERS

you get her early in lyn's mode while it's almost all axe-users to compensate for lyn being lyn.

>Joins with a Killer Lance and Short Spear

I fucking love numbers.

Florina can be hard to use because for some reason IS thought it was a good idea to give you a pegapony locked to lances when you're fighting lots of bandits.

Eugh, that old question of upgrading from Iron to Steel. I'm too cheap to feel good in doing that. I feel an unnecessary obligation to save up for the secret shop and splurge on that.

I'm talking about Florina, but yeah.

Babying the Ch14 Wyrven Knight is hard.

I don't necessarily replace my iron weapons, I just have them in case that 3 extra damage can guarantee a kill.

Fair enough, plus I think you fight your first Archer that chapter too. But at least she gets a whole corner to herself in Dorcas' chapter.
Now, I can understand her starting chapter being rough, but I've never had problems using Florina as long as she gets the Lyn mode start.

I just noticed how smug Nigger's icon is

Oh snap, there's a female halberdier sprite; is that the case in Tacthack, too? Since the male and fem soldier have the same sprite, I thought the halberdier would be the same.

That's from the Lyn's daughter fanfiction hack, dunno if Tacthack will use it.

Oi, wassat you said about me, you little bitch?

Like any other respectable Pegasus Knight, she turns out to be really strong with some early babying. I miss the days of a Pegasus unit like Fury or Fee who could use swords and lances immediately. Fee with Levin as her dad was unkillable against axe users barring extremely bad RNG.

I really miss swords on Pegs and Falcos. Staves are nice, but I'd rather have swords.

I wasn't ready

God work Mods

HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIT

Why would you want them to get a weapon that does less damage? Staves give them good utility.

Play Midori then, where pegs can have swords, lances and staves.

Well, really I miss the days when they had all the three, but I just think the swords are cool.

The ability to not die when an axe user glances at them

>nearly double Nigger's speed

Biggest issue i had with early GBA pegs is the starting ones always have shit CON, ontop of their bad str. So with anything above iron you're likely getting a spd loss.

I have tendency to promote to a multi weapon class if I can choose, but then never end up using their new type. Like I'll always promote archers into the mounted class with swords because I convince myself they'll help but never actually use them

Yep, I had a file that got glitched that was up to Renvall, and I remember Elincia was a carrylord there.

so who's dying?

>the one that hasn't died like a BITCH
You let me die you fucker.

Algimas.

Aceline

Nigger will which will reset all those gains.

Swords improves their command over the weapon triangle. Enemy axe wielders typically have mediocre at accuracy, but they can really hurt if they hit you, which goes doubly so for Pegasus units locked to lances due to the triangle and typically bad defense. It's nice when you have options.

The one with the balanced stats is typically better than the traditional speed and res peg
Tate>Shana
Florina>Farina>Fiora
Tana>Vanessa
Kayla(i think that was her name)>Sumia

...

>So with anything above iron you're likely getting a spd loss
You mean anything above a Slim will give a spd loss? Because all of the GBA pegs starts with 4 or 5 con.
Anyone in Celia's way.

...

mai waifu

That's even worse, been a long time since i played the GBA games.

Wait FE4 got a new fan translation?

Eh, I would say to just not leave Pegs in the range of Axe users, which is never an issue because they're flying. If given a choice between the two, being able to heal allies in a pinch seems much more useful.

Few weeks late there user, some stupid name changes aside its a good tl since it cleans up the text and actually completely tl'd it.

Yeah, it was released earlier this year. It's nice to have a translated ending so we know what happens to everyone.

In the GBA games I remember weapon ranks weren't too big of an issue, because at you got Iron. But in the newer games, having to stick with Bronze is a real killer.

Random note with GBA weapon ranks; there were some classes that actually got extra new weapon ranks on promotion, like Priests getting a D rank instead of E. The weird instance of that is L'arachel, who gets a C-Rank in Anima for promoting to Mage Knight, whereas Valk gets a D-Rank.

Its weird, because the only promotion bonus Valk gets over MK is one point of Resistance. And caps wise, they're identical.

Any more weird kanji/kana float around? Honestly never really finished FE4 because weird shit like that always bothered me
Really does look nice? So it's fully translated now? Might try it out. Got a link to the patch?

Wait, was Florina really the balanced one in FE6? I thought she was the speedy one, and Farina was the strong one, and Fiora was the balanced one?

And honestly, the early game flier is usually just as good, because they get that extra leveling time, and that early-game utility. Really, you should use all the fliers.

romhacking.net/forum/index.php?topic=21199.0

The version I played had a few instances of text floating on the sides, but this was an earlier version of the patch. It didn't happen very often.

Mage Knight was new to the GBA so maybe they wanted you to make her one? I don't know

Shaman start at D because Flux is D for some reason too.

Jesus, Negu is becoming a MONSTER

Gotta keep up with her soulmate.

That's some nice Strength and Speed for her level. She could be a decent tank if her Defense improves, too.

Florina has more Strength growth than Fiora which is what I was basing that vague statement on, more or less.

Farina has higher strength still but at her point it caps naturally and becomes a waste

it mostly comes down to, do you want Anima or do you want Light?

and Light wasn't that great unless you were a Bishop fighting a Monster.

Thanks a lot. I'll patch it and see. Yeah I mostly meant in stuff like menus where it's always there. Randomly popping up if fine as long as it doesn't impact it too much. Now I might actually finish the fucking game.

You'd give her Ivaldi, then. It gets double might that overwrites the triple bonus of Slayer, making Aura better for Bishops.

HOW HAS NOBODY DIED?!

Oh no, I didn't experience anything like that. Have fun, user. Do this big guy a favor and let him get a wife.

Or you could use the trick to give her Dark magic and thus, Naglfar or Glepnir

...

If my knowledge is correct, the weapon rank of the class you promotes into compared to your old class determined how much bonus Wexp you get. So they wanted Mages to get Wexp by promoting into Mage Knight, but didn't give Valks a buff for compensation. Even their caps are similar
>because Flux is D for some reason too
Likely because Luna and Nos are both C-rank tomes, and they didn't want to demote one to D-rank and Flux to E-rank. That, or Shamans just join later so they'll always have a base D-rank.

>not giving L'Arachel light magic to slay those filthy monsters

c'mon

Gleipnir not being effective against monsters really spoiled the fun for me.

Guess another reason I never finished was that I spent way too fucking long trying to figure out the the whole bloodline thing and picking out the best marriage. I know I'm kind of alone on this but I do like it that in the new games I don't really need to bother with that shit and just picking marriages just for the fun of it and not to get the best child. If you have a list on just the best outcome for the marriage in FE4 please tell me because I really don't want to bother looking that shit up again.

>Implying her Fire and Thunder aren't divine

come on, son.

You glitch-give it to Bishop Natasha so you still get that bonus.

Plus, you got to keep the sacred weapons in the homeland. I mean what, you're going to give it to Bad Luck Knoll?

Monsters are made from the same dark magic, and I don't recall anyone in 8 insisting that it's actually "elder" magic.

Not that you'd use Knoll

So is Weyland....special?

Honestly, I don't think you really need to worry about marriages in FE4, like in the newer games. You can get by with the guaranteed units like Ares and Shanan. You can beat the game with substitutes.

Serenes has a pairing guide which should suffice, even if it isn't necessarily optimal.

well, He's a Fire Emblem protagonist so...

I love how Midori basically strapped rocket shoes on Arden and let him have fun.

I did, then I got the tome, then I screamed.

>Josh didn't have mage sister to use their wind spell
>Lyon doesn't have a secret bastard girlzerker sister

...

Did you not pay attention to his personal chapter? I'm pretty sure he's autistic.

Slightly. Only slightly.

Who's that Notasha? Safy?

probably.

Yep.

Don't forget Cecilia with her inexplicable leadership star growth.

And the even more inexplicable Brighton..."promotion."

Here are the pairings I used last time. I don't remember anyone turning out to be terrible.

Ayra x Holyn
Raquesis x Lex
Brigid x Midayle
Adean x Jamke
Fury (Erin in the new translation) x Lewyn
Tailto x Azel
Sylvia x Claude

I feel like I'm forgetting a female. I tried to pair Raquesis with Lex, but I couldn't build lover points high enough before Lex leaves. Even though Lex can't pass down his weapons, he still passes down good growths and Paragon. Dermott will be stuck with an Iron Sword for Chapter 6, but he'll get by. I started a new gen 2 playthrough with those pairings a month ago and Dermott is turning into a fucking monster. He'll start with an A in Swords so you can have Ulster sell one of his swords so Dermott has a good weapon.

The real sadness is Rausten; at least you could use Duessel or Amelia for Garm, and Ewan for Excalibur. But you can't get both Ivaldi and Latona on a Rausten character.

HOW?

She's the mage general after all.

I wouldn't mind if characters like that had a bonus in real games too, since often they end up worse than rookie militia kids and fresh knights

WHY ARE YOU FIGHTING THE BOSS WITH THE PEGA PONY?

Yeah, just dragging her ass with you is free +35 hit and avoid, but holey moley that fucking Brighton promotion.

he had 0% crit chance, could only do 22 of 24 HP, and she was at 89 EXP.

Been a few years since I've touched it. But remember it was all about the major/minor bloodlines. Where base on paring leads to overpowered kids. Plus the maps being so fucking huge it leads to annoying times where you are slowing all progress as you are trying to get couples together.

>Not gamesharking Dozla into a troubadour

Or make Larachel even more special and let her achieve two S ranks.

The promotion bonuses were pretty sick too.

Lani is cute and strong!
I think he has a Swordreaver.

just grinding the boss down.

>still no SPD
goddamnit.

>since often they end up worse than rookie militia kids and fresh knights
I hate that too. Of course, the only way to "fix" it would be to make all the prepromotes so good that you bench their non-promoted counterpart as soon as they join, which sounds worse.

Nigger you should just shackle yourself to the bench.

..well at least there's defense

>all this MAG on a healer
...Mist?

Yeah, he seems like a prime speedwing magnet. Nigger is basically male!Orochi, all that mag but ass too fat to use it.

He already is; that's the only way to justify that speed.

What about weapon bonuses? I've yet to see a promotion that's more broken than Master Knight in FE4.

>Kill the boss
>get SPD
>nobody died
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Can't be Mist, she's not capping strength.

inb4 you get fucking bodied in the next chapter as retailation

A in bows is it because that's what those monsters use, not that it matters, since Brighton is at this point hits hard, takes no damage and doubles all day long.

...

From my experience, she's high-mag low-spd to contrast Haylyn being high-spd low-mag.

Next chapter has fog.

And Siege Dark Magic

Thanks I'll try that out.

Actually anyone working on FE5. Remember that having more translation issues than FE4.

And Wyvern reinforcements.
Nigger hasn't a chance.

I believe the guy who did the new FE4 translations wants to retranslate Thracia.

and the final level of the stage.

Elaine is a monster.

oh my, it seems like 'Algimas' and 'Wayland' want to support each other! Should I do it?

Do Valks use light or anima in Tacthack?

or dare I say it, swords

Bro it up man

Fuck yes, their supports add so much depth to their character. :^)

Wew, say hi to Hector for me Nigger.

>Initiate support between wayland and algimas
>it's actually algimas and gerwulf
>and they're referring to each other as eliwood and hector
...oooooow.

Hector: Ah, Eliwood! It’s good to see you’re still well!
Eliwood: Hm. You expected otherwise?
Hector: No, of course not. I knew you’d be fine.
Eliwood: Hector, wait for a moment. What did you want?
Hector: Nothing. It’s enough to see that you live and are still fighting. Just wanted to make sure you weren’t overdoing it with me not around.
Eliwood: I should say the same to you.
Hector: Me? Don’t worry about me. I’m fine. I’m built tough, you know. A little too much is just enough for me. But you, you’ve never a hardy one, Eliwood. Nor are you used to travel. Go on too long and you’ll collapse.
Eliwood: We’re all weaklings compared to you, Hector. ...Thankfully, wars are not won by strength alone, eh? We’ve been sparring once every two months since we were twelve, and of 30 matches, 14 I won, 12 I lost, and 4 were draws.
Hector: Erh? I think not! I recall 31 matches—an even 13-13 split, with 5 draws!
Eliwood: Yes, well, you recall wrong. I’m in the right.
Hector: Hmph. And what makes you so certain?
Eliwood: Whose snoring was it that shook the rafters in number class?
Hector: Ah, good point.
Eliwood: ...Still, I’m touched you were worried about me. Now, back to the fray!
Hector: Hey, wait! ...Blast.

Nothing fun like that.

So....no lie, this might be my new second favourite FE.

This writing is on POINT.

>I just need is more speed, is all.
Fixed that for you.

>we need to go through these DAAAAAAHK woods

that pun is terrible.

Is there a way to play this on a handheld?

Preferably the 3DS

Oh boy, I smell a fog of war coming up.

Are you sure it's not just your ebonics slipping?

ZOUNDS!

Hopefully you have your torches.

And Ceilia.

Zoinks!

We just need a nice dastard callout to make this truly FE-medieval.

Confound it!

Alright, I have some class reading to do for the stupidest, most pointless class ever, and it's getting late, so we'll call it here. Tomorrow, I might be starting a bit later as my roommate's treating me to 'real Vietnamese food', but I'll try and get on for 6.

g'night all!

later nigga

>for the stupidest, most pointless class ever
The pursuit of knowledge is never pointless. What class is it?

...

Night Nigger. Thread seemed deader than usual this time for some reason.

>What class is it?
War Tactics 101

Oh boy, can't wait to fight Anti-Mage.

Tell us nigger, what class?

Let me guess, gender studies?

...

"Interpersonal and group dynamics"

a full semester class dedicated to the very basics of how to work in groups with people. It's not a pursuit of knowledge, it's a 4 month course about things learned in kindergarten.

Gender Studies says hello.

kek
That actually sounds rather interesting. I wish you the best of luck with it.
We'll have to agree to disagree though I'd never take a Gender Studies class myself.

We made paper planes during that class. As part of the curriculum.

I'll be honest, gender studies would be a step up from this stupid class. I took a censorship class a couple years ago and I got to rip on Brave New World, and the professor wrote me an email asking why I would do that.

yeah, that's what I had the group do today.

this class is so fucking dumb.

Did you include enough smug anime girls in your paper?

nah, I only use the dankest memes, and only on Cred Forums. I don't even memepost on facebook.

oh, I actually still have the graded assignment:

"Overall, in a way your decision to go against the grain is refreshing. I wasn’t convinced that you disliked the book to the extent that you wrote you did, because you seem knowledgeable enough to know the other side to the argument that you omitted. You had nothing good to say about the book, and that’s usually an indication. But when you want to go against received wisdom, you need a really strong argument. "

the professor didn't believe that I really fucking hated the book, despite my essentially basing my entire essay on how bad it is.

So what did I do? I wrote my final exam, which was largely an essay, again on how shitty BNW was.

I also had to read Lolita for that class...that book was fucking awful too, but still better-written than BNW.

Ive got a bullshit class like that and I'm in med school, it's ridiculous.

I'm in radio, which is, admittedly, a field that requires group work, but this is shit that should be a sub-lesson in-class, not an entire fucking course.

the biggest lesson I got from today is that 'people who coast on a team assignment and contribute nothing are BAD'

The course wouldn't even be that bad, except my entire team has taken it upon themselves to have me do every goddamn bit of work in the assignments because we drew lots and I was made team leader.

>people who coast on a team assignment and contribute nothing are BAD
>except my entire team has taken it upon themselves to have me do every goddamn bit of work in the assignments
I think you just showed why an entire course is needed.

that sounds like a pain, luckily for me there's no real group work in this class. This class I have they just spend talking about leadership skills and pointless pyramid graphics.

One of the instructors ended the class last week with "just basically be nice to people"

I'm basically on Cred Forums the entire time during that class

maybe, but fuck, why am I the guy pulling the cart?

Not only that, they still take snipes at me for the tiny, insignificant shit I didn't do. "Why didn't you organize ANOTHER meeting between classes despite us knowing exactly what we're going to do(thanks to discussion led by you), having all the materials to do so(thanks to you), and knowing exactly how to organize everyone(thanks to you) and what we're going to say(thanks to you)? I THOUGHT YOU WERE THE TEAM LEADER?

"What do you MEAN you're not available on wednesdays? I know we're all available fridays and sundays but I DONT WANT TO WORK on friday and we totally need multiple days to work!"

"Well, I suppose we'll have to make other plans because SOMEBODY can't do this one day!"

>Actually organize a meeting, nobody shows up
>2 days later
>"OOPS LOL WHY DIDNT YOU ORGANIZE ANOTHER MEETING, TEAM LEADER?!"

that's fucked up man

and the worst shit?

When I finally call them out on it, and explain why I'm annoyed that I'm being expected to do everything, they said, and I quote: "Well I think you misunderstood me maybe we should talk to teacher about this because I don't think we can solve it this way"

I fucking hate this class, which is annoying because I fucking love my program thus far.

FUCK I mad.

>not calling them out on their bullshit
And if that doesn't work, tattle on them to the professor. You're in a class about teamwork; If they're not working with you as a team then they're fucking up the class.

I get the feeling if I bitch to the professor, I'll lose marks because not only are we graded as a group, but group conflict resolution is part of the class.

>small objects
hhehehehehehehhehehehehehehhehhhhhh

>who is this girl again

You're there to learn the material, not have already mastered it. Go talk to the professor about how one should perform "group conflict resolution" under the guise of wanting to learn more. Unless they're some sort of major faggot, I think every one can sympathize with having to work with shitters.

geez you really got screwed over in group assignments, is the class one semester?

So, who do people prefer between these two?

yeah, thank god.

Stay strong nigga, maybe try what said. If not, we are always here to make fun of your gameplay decisions and make d'ahk memes

I used Rorick my first time.
My second playthrough made use of Odin. Either he isn't as good or mine got screwed.

that's why I come here. Playing vidya,having fun, and not having to think about shitty, pointless classes. I won't be going anywhere for a long time.

Man, shit sounds like hell.

When I get back into X-COM threads, I'll name a soldier after you Nigger Tomo.

You deserve it.

please don't.

seriously, let's keep my autism to one thread.

Okay fine.

yeah, I kinda like having this niche nigger stuff staying here.

it is kinda weird on some FE threads that some anons dont know about this but I guess theyre too busy shitposting waifu stuff

I downloaded this ROMhack a while ago. Is the whole point of Kamille that you hack your own sprites in for him/her? The one I downloaded made me play as some cute red haired girl.

I'd also rather not just become another tripfag attention whore. There's a reason I take my trip off outside these and fire emblem threads.

Its more the fact, I know someone's going to make me call a soldier Nigger or Tomo.

Its going to happen. It happened to Siggy and Anakin.

yeah, tact's been pretty open about how to make your own hacked sprites and put it in. He just did the work for me for this ROM.

>9 magic

what of it?

She looks like the plainest FE character yet

yeah, 6 didn't exactly break grounds on unique characterizations.

I was planning on playing through it for the first time this winter, how do you like it compared to FE7 or Tacthack?

You'll learn to hate Roy's movement score, just a warning.

It isn't as polished as later GBA games, but it is a nice, long game with good difficulty.

However, that difficulty may just be that your units can be mediocre. Unit balance isn't spectacular.

I was pretty open with how I disliked 6. The stages get overly long with little purpose or payoff, later stages just throw siege magic/ballistae/unpredictable stage hazards in lieu of actual challenge, throne bonuses are bullshit, the ratio of good-shit units is awful, you need to achieve super specific goals in order to actually unlock the true ending, and every stage, EVERY STAGE, no matter how much sense it makes, is a seize mission.

and that's not even going into detail about how bad roy is for the game he's in. his stats are mediocre at best, especially for a forced-deployment unit, his movement is terrible, his prf weapon is barely better than an iron sword, and he can't promote until the very last stage in the game(assuming you don't unlock the true end). Then, when he does promote, he gets an awesome new sword...which you can't use up if you want the true final end.

that said, it's still better than games after radiant dawn.

Oh yeah, and the maps can be kind of boring. The outdoors maps can be really big and tedious, and the indoors maps are kind of samey. The big thing is that all the maps are seize.

Dunno, thought Nohr was aight.

I have a question; what FE had the best unit balance?

I think its safe to say the worst is FE14's third route, or FE12.

Damn, that sucks, I'll look up how to get the true ending as I'm playing it then.

I liked Nohr too, besides the dogshit story the maps were pretty challenging and fun.

9. Every unit in the game is at least usable, even if they're completely outclassed by other units.

8 is also close to this, though many units require some babying to get going.

FE6 compared to FE7 is pretty bad. It suffers from extreme character imbalance (Compare Wolt with Rutger), chapters that are insanely hard (Chapter 14), an insanely weak lord that promotes at the last chapter, or, there's a true ending, but the true final boss is insanely easy, and it is just very annoying to unlock. Fundamentally, the game plays just like FE7, but most weapons' accuracy is ~10 lower, so axe users can barely hit, and high dodge characters sweep the game.

>it's still better than games after radiant dawn
I honestly like Awakening and Birthright better. At least Chrom, Robin and Corn aren't garbage units, and every unit the 13 and 14 is viable, in some way or another, unlike Cecilia, Zealots, and Juno, who are literally filler units.

What do you guys think of FE1/3

I like it a lot, but mostly because it isn't toothless like the rest of the GBA games.
That's a good idea, even if the requirements for the true ending are mostly telegraphed, unlike FE7 and it's Magic Seal bullshit.

9 is really great in that aspect, even on different runs I used different characters and never had a problem. Although I never used Makolov, it's pretty funny to me how he turned out on your run

I'd give it to Conquest, but there are still the royals, mages, and children. Honestly, most FEs only have good unit balance, so I don't there's a best.
>even if they're completely outclassed by other units
Then that's not good unit balance, is it? FE9 is just really easy.

If we're not counting scrolls, maybe FE5. I'd have to play it again or at all instead of watching a let's play to know for sure.

makalov is my favourite cav in 9.

My surprise was brom. I've beaten 9 over a dozen times and he's somehow slipped through the cracks.

No, I mean....Mist becomes a monster thanks to her growths, but if you choose not to use her, Rhys also steps up to the plate as well, even on hardmode, and he has BEASTLY MAG.

Boyd is incredible, but if he gets benched, you can still use Largo, same with Tauroneo or brom over gatrie. The only unit I'd say is straight up bad is Ena, who joins with terrible stats and is next to impossible to grind up due to laguz BEXP and her terrible MOV.

You'll never have a truly bad party in 9, which I think is an indicator of good balance.
but yeah, FE9 is pretty easy

8 is honestly my favorite Fire Emblem game, but I haven't played 5 yet. I personally don't mind babying units like Ewan or Marissa, who happen to be personal favorites of mine, as a Sage and Assassin respectively. And honestly, if you or someone else doesn't play it, I might

The worst is definitely FE1(or FE3 book 1) from the games I've played. Every character is either good or unusable. You get prepronoted units who are weaker than unpromoted characters you get a few chapter before (Zagarro/Wolf compared to Kashim) Some prepromotes have lower stats than the ptomotion bonuses, which is plain stupid, and then there's characters like Est who come in way too late at very low levels. The only way some units can be good is by abusing the star orb.

I have a lot of games already planned, and I may or may not do another /vp/ playthrough sometime in the future.

I'm also not a huge fan of FE8 though I usually do at least a little tower shenanigans and having Cred Forums choose my promotions might be interesting.

Nobody's played those games.

FE1 I can understand, but FE3 really needs to be played by more people, if for nothing else than understanding what FE11 did right and FE12 did wrong.

>You'll never have a truly bad party in 9
It's an indication, but not a direct correlation. FE9 canto makes cavs very preferable over foot units, most Laguz are mediocre because of their gimmick, and I don't think good unit balance can exist in a good with the Knight Ward (though maybe that's outside unit balance).

Not saying FE9 has bad unit balance, of course, but I think it's so easy that the flaws in unit balance aren't really noticeable. Except Sothe. Fuck Sothe.

I always go through the tower and the ruins once each before I go to end game. FE8's pretty easy, so the level buffer isn't needed, but it helps to even everyone out.

Do a Midori or Sword of Heaven and Earth playthrough sometime if you're not against them being fully in nipspeak.

Either FE9, with every unit having its own potential niche (Boyd VS Largo, Astrid VS Rolf), and a few existing as pre-trained-if-mediocre substitutes (Calill, the Crimea Trio); or FE3, where every unit is equally usable, EXP gains are fixed instead of dependent on level, and the Starsphere can make any unit into a supersoldier.

>sothe
oh fuck I forgot that worthless piece of shit.

okay, 2 bad units.

I'd actually like you to go through FE3. You've bitched over and over again about not playing FE11, so at least make some kind of compromise.

Please don't play FE12. Everyone's played that one.

>Sword of Heaven and Earth
That hack has been out for over a year, why are people just now talking about it? At least it's a daily reminder that I still need to beat it.

>tfw used Sothe expecting him to promote
God damn was I mad, at least he is now a god in my fe10 playthrough

I thought the tower in 8 was a really awesome way to unlock boss characters, I wish other games did that

Doesn't Abomination award you with a Shadowgift Katarina shroud for beating Apotheosis?

I'm not sure what youre talking about.

>Apotheosis

Final Fire Emblem Awakening DLC that throws waves of Lunatic + enemies against you. It gives Katarina at the end. And she's good as fuck, since she have all of Robin and Morgan's classes.

youtu.be/2H4M7VRMPC4

never played DLC for that game, Katarina cute tho

She's a deliberately engineered fuckdoll with a shitty sob backstory made exclusively to be the player's waifu.

o-oh..

Sounds perfect.

12 is a good game, Nigger, even if it started the MU cancer.

Please no. Everyone's played FE12, just like everyone's played FE9. Why do people want to watch people play a game they've already played to death and will know everything of what will happen?

Yeah, I haven't played FE12. But I agree. Someone, somehow, should do a FE13 or FE14 run.

I'm not telling him to LP it, I'm just saying that it's a good game.

I don't respect that game, though.

12 would be a blind playthrough

here's my upcoming itinerary of games I want to play, though:
>radiant dawn
>Soul Nomad(blind)
>Mother 3(blind)
>possibly a shining force game?(blind)
>final fantasy V?
>pokemon gen 2(nuzlocke/randomized)

Either FE10 or Mother 3.

oh yeah, I plan to do RD next.

fyi, you cant make a nigger in 12

You heard of Onmi?

try and stop me.

nope. Never heard of soul nomad either before people demanded I play it.

You should bump up V, I wanna see how we fuck with your party comp.

What about a FE6 hacker?

>Mother 3(blind)
Prerequisite is that you must have beaten Earthbound at some point in your life. Trust me, it's worth it for Mother 3.

FE12 is flying death squad: The Game, anyway.

oh shit, just remembered:

instead of pokemon gen 2
>pokemon uranium(blind)

Why? It's as relevant to Earthbound as Chrono Cross is to Chrono Trigger.

What are Chapters 7 and 8?

Desperation.

Well, that's one way to summarize the endgame. Also, nice image spoiler.

The image spoils nothing out of context, idiot.

Well I guess we have different definitions of what constitutes as spoilers then. Not like it matters much either way though.

I never played any of these and I dont get it :^)

If it's FF5 it has to be 4JF run.

a what?

Four Job Fiesta.
Basically you can only use one job per crystal an no freelancer.

oof, sounds rough.

is that one job per person?
like, butz can only use warrior, garuf can only use monk, etc? or is it that I can ONLY use monk/warrior/white mage

unrelated, I want to start on a new 40k kit tomorrow. Which should I make? I have a dark eldar starter kit, a dark eldar ravager(their big ass ships), some slaaneshi daemonettes(daemons of sex and drugs), dark eldar hellions(guys on cool flying skateboards), and a Baneblade(a giant fucking tank)

No and it's not that hard.
Especially if you get the Chemist classs

but I like blue magic, and choosing blue magery means I'd lose monk, which I also love.

then there are crystals like....which is the one with spellblade? I'm not a fan of most of the jobs from that crystal. aside from based spellblade

Have Cred Forums do the voting and yeah the Water Crystal nets you Spellsword.

might give it a go, but just having Cred Forums choose classes at the start of areas will likely be challenge enough, especially later on. I haven't played the game in a few years and last time I did, I just cheesed most of the game.

I'll probably do off-screen grinding though.
