How I managed to do something so stupid on one of the easiest games in the Fire Emblem franchise.

First I must explain that I'm exempting myself from the permadeath clause on any Fog of War chapter where I don't know where all the reinforcements are. Because I fully understand that Fog of War chapters are not the cheapest things known to humankind, but... uh... I'll get back to you on anything that IS cheaper than that.

Second, it's been a long time since I played Victims of War, and never without Arena Abuse on the immediately preceding chapter.

Third, I miscalculated a Cavalier... or three's... range.

Fourth, Eirika is really an incredibly flimsy Lord. I think it's more insulting in this game because Ephraim's a tank, and Eirika is a sheet of tissue paper.

And that is why I've had to restart the current chapter three times. Though the first two times were Joshua (who is ALSO incredibly flimsy) and Artur (who is a freaking magic-user). And I also accidentally got the adult female villager killed by a giant spider this round, but I frankly don't care at this point. No one ever mistook ME for a skilled tactician.

There's a reason spotpass!Eirika is a myrmidon in Awakening. And why the hell isn't Joshua dodging? D: Myrmidons are supposed to be speedy!

Yep. She's definitely Speedy McWhat'sAnAttackStat.

And why the hell isn't Joshua dodging? D: Myrmidons are supposed to be speedy!
Above his pay grade. >_> (More seriously, I have no idea. His dodge rating is abnormally low for a Myrmidon's. Perhaps I should have leveled him more?

I also got badly-screwed level ups [like... one to two points, every single level] for several units for a while, so maybe he just failed to gain Speed and Skill for a level or two. The RNG was being really weird.)

Joshaaaaa... D:

Eep. RNG doesn't much like myrmidons, huh.

Well, he DOES advertise that he's unlucky. ;)
