>what's going on?
I'm playing (partially blindly) through one of the most famous hacks of Fire Emblem 7--The Last Promise.

While I do, I'll be taking inputs from you on various things, and sharing notable differences and things added to the hack(for all the shit it has, there's a LOT of good in it too)

FAQs:
>what's this hack called?
"The Last Promise"
>where can I download it?
/feg/ has a pastebin of ROMhacks in their OP.
>is this the one with the hilariously edgy MC?
yes.
>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 and dodge attacks
SPD- if your SPD is high enough, you'll be able to double-attack enemies.
LUK-affects accuracy and avoidability
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.
>Why are you so shitty?
I'm impatient
>Is this the one with the self-insert that gets NTR'd?
no, that's MK404

Sorry about yesterday, I was sleeping, couldn't stay up for the thread.

he's totally honest.

and, as per the arena battle, our winner was.....

...

alright, any party changes?

I need to use Ben in this stage.

ditch Howard

take Yue

b-but what about his relationship with the CIA?

also, yue came with this!

who gets it?

Oh boy!

Ace

wait, what the fuck does it do? I thought it was a RES boosting item.

it's not.

apparently holding it gives you more hit rate?

well, kinda worthless on ace with his spd, but okay.

finally, kelik hit 20 on the last map.

does he get to promote first, or is this getting saved for the (still 18) shon?

give it to Kelik

oh boy

>trenchcoat

oooooh my god.

>non-stupid promotion bonuses
is this real?

...

Phst, nothin' personnel...

alright, let's DO THIS

music is actually pretty good, let me see if I can find it.

found it.
youtu.be/k4pV4_inRxU?t=10m16s

dunno where it's from.

also HOLY SHIT SHUUDA GOT DEF

>promoted class name is Legend
I was not prepared for this

it actually makes sense, since his merc group is 'the legend mercenaries'

also
>his normal animation isn't *teleports behind you* anymore
It's a more standard slash attack. kinda disappointing.

you should see his crit

Was missing her part of your PLAN?

YOU'RE A BIG GIRL

I sure hope you didn't want to hit her.

come on, shon.

Cia is perfection

well...shit.

I have to restart. althares had the emblem sword, and I need all the emblem weapons to get one of the secret things.

plus side, I forgot about this.

Just another day in Nigger playthroughs.

I actually haven't had a game over in a while.

I wouldn't restart, but I agreed early on to make sure to get every single secret.

also, shit, this means no DEF for shuuda.

Is Karina best girl?

Poor Shuuda. The moment he thinks things are looking up, time reverses.

Rexfags will never recover

oooooh my god

this fucking crit.
youtu.be/6ZTEsajOKcI

HOLY SHIT WHAT

I told you bro the crit is fucking gold

>mfw I was a Rexfag

Where did it all go so wrong?

nevermind.

>capped TWO STATS before a single point in Def

>he moves as little as possible in the dodge animation
>In the crit he becomes nothing personnel itself
Bravo Blazer

god, that reset FUCKED me.

He "shuuda" gotten a dragonshield.

shon came out okay tho.

I feel like siegfried should be getting more STR.

Can anyone give me an idea of how many promotion items there are in this hack and when I'll get them? I just got Emma and don't know if I should use the ring on Tamiko immediately or wait a few chapters for CIA to hit 20

His str growth is a mere 70%

Does Siegfried have a promote class? Or is this it for him?

just wait

nigger eventually gets put on steroids x100

you won't like it though

so I just fucked up, and I'm pretty sure someone is going to die.

there's a LOT of promotion items. you get a second ring pretty quickly.

hell, I have at least 1 spare right now and I promoted both tamiko and Cia.

it's the enemy phase.

panic

Yikes

well, that's a good start.

OW.

Shell be fine

>hitting CIA
what a hothead.

The fire is rising!

>hitting on 32%

OH COME ON.

You brought this on yourself

It could have been worse.

It could've been 1%.

>chance something could happen
>it does
wow how shocking and unpredictable it's not like there was a 32% chance of it happening

how the fuck does a dude in a big-ass suit of armor dodge lightning?

Is CIA married to Howard yet?

Very quickly.

What's the logic of the AI

Like what do they prioritize

Sometime I had enemy flyer dying by the dozen trying to spear down my sniper rebecca because someone was in the way

fuck.
strawpoll.me/10763826

howard got benched for this chapter

>Aircalibur
WHY NOT JUST EXCALIBUR

SHIT

"FUCKING INVINCIBLE" they said.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
TWO PEGS IN TWO STAGES?!

Because Excalibur is already the strongest form of wind magic in most fire emblem games Aircalibur is the basic wind magic in some games

>put a flyer in range of archers
>WHAT DO YOU MEAN ITS DEAD!?

oh thank god.
>100% of votes are that nobody will die

FUCKING MOIDA

fuuuuuuuuuUUUUUUUUUUUCK

holy SHIT I SURVIVED IT.

does this map just put you 3 spaces from the enemy?

just gotta believe in yourself, OP

we told you bro we told you

It's a christmas miracle

Now do something retarded like the other time.

let's start clearing out this choke-point.

pretty close, and there's a LOT of enemies.

looking through pics it looks like you coulda retreated and had the amazing green AI "help"

I'm playing through the hack too and I think the AI is different than vanilla FE7. it feels like the AI make their choices based on % health instead of health, even if they'll do 0 damage

jesus CHRIST, mark.

7's tactician got buffed i see

h u g e

what happened to your perfect level-ups, cia?

She is upset because you didn't send her husband to battle.

nothin' personnel...kid.

She's looking to cap magic early

et tu, tamiko?

She's not feeling in charge

This is what happens when you reset OP, they know

not too bad, overall.
