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!

The difficulty for me on Unfulfilled Heart is stealing the Knight Crest. Also, because I expect the heaviest attack to be near my lords (you'd think I would learn...), I tend to get overwhelmed in the southern area.

I've still never recruited Harken, because I like the challenge of opening all the doors in time. Looks like he's doing well for you though.

Hm, I tend to forget about that Knight's Crest. I usually don't need it by that point. But the fact that the north is actually a pretty safe area pisses me off, it really should be an attack from all fronts, but instead the enemies will avoid attacking whenever possible.

As for Harken... I tend to rarely recruit him, too :P You know, he requires me to be incompetent and such... Karel is awesome (plot-wise), but Harken is definitely more useful, thanks to axes. No doubt, he'll be great support for Oswin in Cog of Destiny. And the Brave Sword will definitely help against Mr.No-Criticals, Linus.
