Welcome once again to alternate universe Fire Emblem
>What is this?
A thread where I play through the game and you all decide what I do. This ties to item management, unit deployment, and a whole lot more.
Last Thread: Today, we finally get to use the much cooler main character.

Last time you guys split my team up, resulting in the strongest two units going on the easier path. I think Runan lost a bet.
By the way, feel free to ask questions about the game if you have em.
Ayyy
Runan is still badass in but Holmes is alpha af
Kill off Zieg
You got that right
I will, considering how its necessary to beating the game.
Shigen just can't understand a good bromance.
An actual army takes interest in Runan, and Enteh finds her mage buddy.
Its worth noting at this point that the game becomes extremely wordy. Richard and his pals are infamous for having like 20 scenes dedicated to them despite not actually mattering that much to the plot. I'll just give you quick summaries when needed.
Richard forms an alliance with us, and we finally see combat.
There's only ONE guy that's gonna sit this map out. Pick who.
Bartz, also bump to keep thread alive.
A man that smug cannot possibly stay a good guy.
Eugen proves that he is the worst adviser in the series. Even Dorias wouldn't be this dumb.
You'll be finding yourself saying that more and more with each post but you'll probably be wrong most of the time. I know because I judged the evil looking guys the same way.
Narcus got lost in the desert, and the lady we got earlier is capable of using Starlight.
Getting to Narcus is important, as he'll die if we aren't fast.
bench Raquel.
Also welcome back Siggy! How long is this game? How far are you?
The sad part is I've played the game. I'm around mission 20 but the translation I had got so bad I put it on hold. I got the new translation working recently so it might be time to dive back in.
Too late, bartz is on the bench.
Game is 40ish maps long, this is map 9.
damn, it's a long game, eh?
Yeah.
Roger fights the enemy soldi-WAIT CROSSDRESSER
OH NO
ALL THE ENEMIES ARE CROSSDRESSERS
THE TANK IS A CROSSDRESSER
Starlight boosts evade, which would be great if mages could actually dodge.
Oh, I actually remember recommending the new translation to an user on here. Was that you?
And yeah, the old translation was horrible. Ugh, the text was honestly painful to read because of how wooden everyone felt. You missed out on some crazy fucking maps on Runan's route, though. Holmes' are just as hard, but easily cheesable because of warping.
oh my~~
cute
What isn't cute is that Raffin needs to fight like 8 cavs all by himself.
Here's a weapon from earlier. The Swordbreaker shatters enemy swords on impact. It sucks for the player.
he can take them.
unrelated to this run, my strawpoll is still in a tie. I just finished chapter 5 on my youtube page. Should I continue making videos, or wait until I continue playing on Sup Forums?
THERE'S EVEN MORE NOW
It didn't get unbearably bad until around mission 15 or so I think.
It might have been me actually. I don't think this game has a massive player base.
he's FIIIIIIIIIIIINE.
>quadra hits
Dialogue gets bad after the first Holmes section. Its horrible by endgame.
A witch warps in and nearly kills Raquel. Shit's getting dicey.
Yeah it went from decent to wooden to literally broken text and obvious machine translation. That final step is where I drew the line and put it on hold until the new translation dropped.
For me, it depends on whether or not you played beyond that point at all. I'd prefer that what you post here be done with you knowing as little about what lies ahead as possible. But if you already went and played more, then I don't mind what you do.
I'm currently completely blind past chapter 5.
all I know is the title of chapter 6.
that's it.
Anyone have any questions about TRS? Ask away.
why did they stop getting made? did IS sue a bitch?
Current patch has its issues, but they're not the translator's fault. Stuff like linebreaks, enemy names being corrupted or the hackers changing the name and description of stuff themselves because it didn't fit and didn't warn the translator about that.
Do you know if Matthew is still alive?
why is Meriah so good
Kaga won the lawsuit Nintendo made.
And we have Vestaria Saga, if anything.
id imagine they didnt sell very well if anything, kaga won the lawsuit ninty did so its not that
>Kaga won the lawsuit Nintendo made.
Nintendo recurred that and he lost the second one, though.
why do dodge tanks work for YOU?
>Nintendo filed a second lawsuit on appeal, and the second trial began three months after the first, this time under the Tokyo High Court. The second trial ended in November 2004, and Enterbrain was ordered to pay a fine of 76 million yen to Nintendo. However, the game was not ruled as a breach of copyright, and copies remained in stores. Nintendo and Intelligent Systems made another appeal to the Japanese Supreme Court, where the second ruling was upheld
He only won the initial lawsuit that sued them for copyright breach, they still had to cough up cash after it.
Life is unfair
>Dagon killing his own troops AGAIN
>Life is unfair
yup.
Narcus is conscripted for real this time.
Yikes. I do remember hearing that Tearring Saga actually did sell pretty well in Japan, critics calling it a genuinely good clone *clears throat* of Fire Emblem.
IS sued.
Kaga made Berwick Saga afterwards which is quite different (and apparently good, but it will NEVER EVER be translated) so it's not just because of the lawsuit. Maybe Berwick Saga didn't sell well enough?
I dunno, ask him.
Because of her unique tomes. 20 might on starlight is great and aura rain is just ridiculous - unfortunately for you, you can't use it with Mel's M Up staff this playthrough.
Also because she's cute
Source?
Here's Narcus's stats and his gimmick. He's basically Xane, although he can't perfectly copy stats. Even then, two Narrons is amazing. Thank goodness Narcus is here, now we stand a chance in battle!
>NEVER EVER be translated
Just that much of a bitch to tl, or just no interest?
Dark bishops are manipulating a powerful military force. You know the drill by now.
Too difficult, it seems.
Eugen delivers some baaaad news.
Eugen is metal as fuck.
Protip: give all your cash to Holmes, but give Runan all your (unopened) gold bags. Once the suspicious dude makes off with half of your zero gold, open the gold bags (or sell them) so you can buy the dragon flute.
Though I'd rather you see you waste your money and not buy the flute. Would be more interesting.
Do you have any of those life-protecting amulets? You might have some trouble in chapter 18 since you don't have Zeek.
>PS2
oh i see, PS1 i think was already a pain enough to tl games on, well that sucks.
>walking in on a whipping session
mintz how dumb are you
He's amazing when he isn't doing tactics
Runan has the bags.
One day it'll happen. I'm sure of it.
No interest. There was some difficulty figuring out how to translate it at first, but the chinks figured it out. But there's no one interesting in translating it.
Personally I'd play it even if there was a .txt translation and no patch. It's not a big deal for TRPGs in my opinion.
Not the best source, but here: hardcoregaming101.net
I'll try to find concrete evidence for numbers, though
>One day it'll happen. I'm sure of it.
Weve all had that hope Siggy, but really learn moon
A menu translation would be enough for me.
Things get lewd. Very lewd.
Works for me. Thanks.
You do know you can recruit her and Mintz at the same time, right?
Yeah, you get Leonie later.
Map time. There's like, three factions here. All of them are enemies.
1 bench spot. Plum and Raffin are coming because they're rather important here.
No no no, I don't mean later. I mean you can actually trigger both recruitment events at the same time and have both on your team when you get to Runan again.
I'm not talking about visiting the village and getting Leonie.
>get both at once
How the hell do you that? I'm very interested.
Basically you need to let Mintz get into the castle and then trigger the event where the boss comes out of the castle before the burning Leonie thing happens. Then you beat the boss and seize the castle before the game shits itself.
You'll get both Leonie and Mintz events after the chapter is done, awarding you both at the same time.
I recommend using the Memory staff or savestates because I needed to try a few times to get the boss event to trigger, though. You can either get in the range of the enemies or try to sneak into the fortress by the right way, try until one work.
This is also mentioned in WoD's page so I'm not pulling this out of my ass, but I did confirm that it works.
>save states
Banned, but that sounds cool. I'll play it safe for now and just get Leonie later in the game.
Still need to find out who gets the bench.
>nothing
gonna ditch Raquel because some guy wanted her gone earlier.
Of course, someone's gonna post someone else 5 seconds after this post, but hey I can reset.
Mayor wants us dead
Or the memory staff. You know you can use it to save midbattle, right?
I vote for you to kill Ernest.
Good luck.
Yeah but I'm doing no-resets besides game overs.
Here's a boss not to fuck with.
He's playing ironman.
I don't think you actually need any save states or anything like that. You just let mintz enter the castle then kill the boss in the next couple turns.
Mercs move in to kill us, and Esther once again bullshits her way to survival. She has no stats whatsover.
he leaves instantly.
Do it for the science, man.
>Levin Sword
>6 Mag
Absolute madman
It's just that the boss can be touchy about getting out sometimes. Sometimes the burn event plays first.
This is a game where Res is Mag/2 rounded down. No one has any Res here besides mages.
I have never had that happen. If you don't obstruct Mintz's path, you approach the castle once he enters, and you seize the following turn you will be fine.
With his skills that's still pretty dangerous.
>maybe let a girl burn to death for science
no thanks
Raffin recruits his old girlfriend, and she recruits a slightly better Knight than Norton.
>seize quickly
man that would be really easy IF I HAD ZIEG AND NARRON
The it was just be being unlucky? Because seriously, I had to try a couple times before the burn event didn't play first.
Also probably Narron's dad
Here's two new units and a gimmick. Mintz needs to get to the castle without the duke getting his troops out or us scaring him off. This means we just kinda wait around like idiots for 10 turns.
Sharon is Kate but slightly better, and Billford is a human wall.
>no boss convo
kaga why
I dare you to kill at least three of Ernst's troops
Plum goes and gets some milk. Nothing weird here.
oh god I might
And that's how we accidentally forced a party member into slavery.
>tfw it isn't a brothel thing, just a dancer
>plum will never get mindbroken by fat old men
fucking kaga
sorry to disappoint.
Mintz saves the day.
>okay I'll bait a few
>THE ENTIRE ARMY APPROACHES
NOOOO
FUCK
Man, this would be REALLY easy if you had Narron and Zieg
How unfortunate
>okay I'll bait a few
WHY!? Did you never fight against Astram like enemies before?
I FORGOT
AHHH
Oh hey, nigger took over
Nigger stop pretending to be Siggy please.
THEY'RE DEAD
ALL OF THEM ARE DEAD
I choose you Nigger!
Wait what
Mintz joins and everyone likes us now yaaaay
All the enemies besides Ernst are killable. Ernst leaves when you approach.
Here's a scene I've never seen before.
Roger is a bit peeved when Mel "lances" with other dudes.
Our pre-promote promotes again because why not. Apparently he used to be a Wyvern Rider.
...Rance?
