Exited Port of Badon with Level 20 Raven, Level 20 Guy, Level 10 Lucius, and Level 10 Canas.
Rebecca didn't get to go in the Arena once. D|
Current "Pirate Ship" strategy: Huddle behind Hector and Oswin for first few turns and try not to get the damn Glass Cannons Rebecca and Lucius killed off. On... fourth or so run right now, due to getting Rebecca and Lucius repeatedly killed off in the first few turns. =________=;; Good HEAVENS, they are flimsy.
Execute Operation 'Fetal Position', everybody.
Also - FFS, HECTOR, DO NOT KILL OFF THE ELYSIAN WHIP PEG. KNIGHT! DAMNED IF I'M GOING TO LET A GOOD PROMOTION ITEM GO TO WASTE IN HHM!
Eliwood, just go stand around looking pretty. I THINK I'm going to get you some EXP, but I may have to reconsider. Frankly, your CURRENT helpfulness consists of standing around and radiating your B support with Hector.
...Make that fifth run. Matthew just got... molested by three Peg. Knights at once.
Screw this, I'm taking away his weapons. He's a lover-not-a-fighter anyway, and he can't be... bodice-ripped by lance-users if he's not wielding a sword in the first place.
Eliwood, radiate that B support like you're effing married. B-support him like this is a hardcore Hector/Eliwood slash fic.
WHAT THE HELL? WHAT THE HELL? WHAT THE HELL?
Sixth run. I HAAATE PEG. KNIGHTS. I need to shield BOTH Rebecca AND Lucius from having more than ONE angle of attack open on them at all times. And just when I thought I was past the gangbang turn, too.
Seventh. Merlinus was used successfully as a decoy last run. Interesting data point: OSWIN needs to be holding a Vulnerary at all times. OSWIN.
I'm also giving him two Javelins for shits and giggles. This will either make no difference whatsoever or lead to his making the entire cluster**** of Shamans and Archers his bitches.
*pause* Weeell. Survey says "bitches". How nice.
WHAT THE HELL. WHO THOUGHT THE ASSHOLE WITH THE LANCEREAVER WAS A FUNNY IDEA?
The asshole who critical'd with a Lancereaver, that is. Back to square one...
Run #8. Rebecca, you're a total embarrassment. Bartre will take over. BARTRE.
Guy, go stonewall with your uberdodge and WTF CRITICAL skills.
...Wait, I forgot to give Oswin a Javelin. D| Crap.
Double crap, Lucius killed a Peg. Knight on a counterattack and then got reamed by the next Peg. Knight. RUN NUMBER NINE!
(Yes. I really, REALLY am bad at this game. It's... It's really bad.)
Run #9. Forgot to replace Rebecca with Bartre. Well, let's give her a chance, see how badly she screws up this round.
Both Hector and Oswin have been given Vulneraries in an attempt to make them Priscilla-independent. I only have eight characters allowed. Was Pirate Ship this constrained in regular HNM?
The... hilarious asshoe with a Lancereaver met a painful and ignomonius end. Turns out Mercenaries with Lancereavers shouldn't stand in the range of an irate Hector. Isn't that such a shocker?
AW, ****. Oswin died to a mass Shaman storm.
Still. Learned that Rebecca IS worth her salt, that the Vulnerary method does work, and that Swordsman Guy can do ridiculous and unholy things when used as a temporary melee wall.
Tenth attempt. Oswin got a DEF and RES level-up - that's good, that's very good.
Hilarious asshole with Lancereaver received a hilarious Silver Axe to the face.
Speaking of hilarity, when will Peg. Knights learn NOT to attack Swordmasters? Not that I'm complaining, but...

Aah. XD;; I never owned the game right out, when I decided to try it out I had to download it. So I've become spoiled by savestates. XD;
It's a... er... different game without savestates. What I would have given to have an "Undo" button during some of the recent Pirate Ship runs. >_

I managed to get as far as chapter 12 in FE8 on a regular GBA. Then I tried to arena whore and had to reset, and then people kept dying.

You need to take only the 600-690 and low-700s bets. Those are either survivable or are slow-paced enough that you can start mashing B.
Besides, in FE8, you have the advantage that you can go fight monsters between chapters. ;) It's better than the Arena, in some ways. Say what you will about the monsters, but at least they'll never be Level 20 Pirates with Silver Axes or whatnot. :P

Yeah, this is true. However, arenas also give cash. XD So there's good and bad there.

Canas will have to level-up on Imprisoner of Magic, f'r instance...
