Live Blogs Ein Draft von Feuer Emblem

There you go. A Fire Emblem Draft. A playthrough of one of my favourite games of all time, now as a competition with heavy restrictions. Plus, I'll be playing it in German, because I need that practice.

My draftees: Oswin, Florina, Sain, Canas, Isadora, Harken/Karel

My opponents: Barrylocke, Alfric, montagohalcyon, xiphoniii, Hnd 03

General rules

-Undrafted units cannot fight, break walls/trees, visit villages or rescue drafted units. They can meatshield, trade items, rescue undrafted units, recruit new units, find buried items and buy and sell items;

-Hector, Merlinus and Athos are free for all (so, they should be added up there, but whatever);

-Marcus is free up to, and including, Chapter 15. After that, he's banned;

-Matthew can be freely used for (and only for) thievery purposes. Legault is also allowed to steal that oh-so useful Member's Card;

-Any break of the above rules incurs in a 4-turn penalty. Yikes!;

-I do not have to get every item and character, nor do I have to keep everyone alive, but I want to, if possible.

And with that, I shall begin. Wish me Viel Glück!

I think Panzerspeer just means "armor spear". "Panzer" means "tank" because it's a contraction of "Panzerkampfwagen", "armored fighting vehicle". Which unfortunately makes the name Panzerspeer a bit less badass, but what can you do?

Tsk, that's what I get for quickly checking Google Translate instead of using a proper dictionary. Thanks for the clarification. If you ask me, Panzerspeer is still a pretty sweet name.

Oh, and pleased to meet you :) Didn't know there were others reading these liveblogs

Did you know, on every level you've completed so far you either hold the lowest turncount or tied for it? I bow to your strategic genius, sir.

Haha :D I think I picked the right characters. Where Oswin can't cut it, Florina will.

You're not too bad yourself. I noticed you had 12 turns for this one. You didn't have Florina. You also had Lyn instead of Sain, who has lances. I don't know if I could've done the mountain/forest crossing in just 4 turns with your units.
