11: A Cunning Plan



Just soldiers? That's not very threatening.



Seems dodgy, but okay.

Anyway, Matthewood convinces the rest of the continent to stay out of it so we just have to stab Lundgren a few dozen times and we're golden.



Somehow I'm not terribly concerned...



We have to bench two people for this, and one of them is going to be Jaffar, and Ninian can now use the light brand so she's basically just Better Karel at this point. This also tends to happen with the actual Rath - "Your level's too high, sit this out... ... ... Your level's about the same as the rest of the party's, but why would I care to swap anyone out for you?"

(It doesn't help that Rath joins late and is kinda shite in the later paths.)



Ahahahaha no we're not doing that.



Oh no.



Ninian is not large, but she is definitely in charge.



Raven approves. Well, as much as Raven approves of anything. I don't like this as much as I did my first attempt at this. That time, I got Lucius here. That was funny.



Anyway Raven is another Nino mage and he has some nice stats. I think I prefer Eliwood as my red-haired magical girl, though. And of course, we have Dorcas. You're benched!



Raven comes with an Elfire tome. Elfire, as best I can tell, is garbage. At 6 mt, 78 hit, 13 wt, it's one point weaker than Fire and almost twice as heavy, all for four points of hit. Not a fan so far.

He also has Wallace's old knight crest, which he can't use now. However...



I may have a cunning plan.



Since he won't fight, I had him visit the village.



For all the good that did us.



The forts on the bottom spawn wyverns now. This is a Problem, because they can move a lot farther than the usual brigands.



Enjoying that bow weakness, though!



Eligood.



I'll tell you what's not good, though. This. What the fuck, Erk.



Ninian's really coming into her own here.



And now, even more so!



Goddammit wyverns!



Goddammit Florina!!



yeah I'm not too worried



See? Plenty of vision.



Here's one of the wyverns. It's even more of an issue because they have speed above 4, and as such can double my 0AS units...



Lucius.



I can't believe I actually broke a bow in Lyn mode.



Eeehhhhh.



Slim lance is still a brave weapon, but it doesn't matter when you do no damage!



Here's a shaman.

...What, I don't have anything more to add.



Well, looks like they're out of wyverns.



Goddammit!



Go away!



I'll take that level.



All right, now they're out of wyverns. We just have to mop up the infantry units.



Like so.



That seems to be everything...



Just two axe guys by the boss. They aren't very scary, because we're a dodgy sword unit.



Eagler's stats aren't that scary either.



But this thing kind of is. He does have effective speed 4 with it, so some people will not want to fuck with it.



The corsair has a steel axe.



Ninian is not impressed.



Nope, longbow still garbage.



Still took the shot. Hey, it's 1 exp.





Huh. The light brand is either a bow or a dragonslayer actually a reaver weapon that does magic damage at 1 range, as was pointed out to me. I never claimed to be observant, ok!!



Ninian could waste this guy so easily, but that is not the plan.



uuughhhh and of course the axereaver poisons why wouldn't it!



Doesn't matter in the end, though. Give me that exp!



Meanwhile...



No, please tell us how you really feel...

Next on Ninian's Bizarre Randomizer:



We stab this man. Kind of a lot.
