Complete the Smash Brethren 3 DLC mission in fire emblem awakening. Recruit Lyn and face Ike as the boss.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    On Turn 1, move south to engage the southernmost enemies. Position mobile and sturdy units to attack and draw enemy fire. Be wary of strong enemies like the Black Knight, Micaiah, and Sephiran.
  2. 2
    On Turn 2, the north-eastern door opens, revealing Zephiel and allies. Prioritize the southern enemies and ignore this new group for now.
  3. 3
    From Turn 3, the western door opens. Continue focusing on the southern enemies and prepare for Zephiel's approach.
  4. 4
    On Turn 4, clear the north-eastern enemies and begin engaging the western group. Be cautious of Lyn and Jaffar due to their high Speed.
  5. 5
    As Turn 5 begins, the south-eastern door opens. Finish the western enemies and advance south to meet the new threats.
  6. 6
    When Turn 6 arrives, the north-western door opens. Concentrate on defeating the south-eastern enemies. Maintain vigilance to avoid being overwhelmed.
  7. 7
    On Turn 7, eliminate the south-eastern foes and prepare to face the north-western group, led by Roy.
  8. 8
    From Turn 8, both the eastern and south-western doors open. Defeat any remaining enemies from previous groups and prepare for the eastern units, led by Eliwood and Hector.
  9. 9
    On Turn 9, the northern doors open. Remain calm and finish off the eastern enemies.
  10. 10
    On Turn 10, confront the enemies advancing from the south; they should not pose a significant threat individually.
  11. 11
    From Turn 11 onwards, prepare to face the enemies charging from the north. Fall back if necessary and carefully reduce their numbers. Be aware of strong units like Ike and Ashnard, and watch out for Titania's Counter ability.

New Units:

  • Lyn, a Swordmaster Level 8, is recruited at the end of the mission.

Boss:

  • Ike, a Hero Level 10, wielding Ragnell, is the boss of this map. While not exceptionally dangerous, he has a ranged sword attack, and his Aether skill can inflict significant damage if it connects.
Tips
  • This mission features 50 enemies and no allied green units.
  • Enemies are released gradually from locked doors, unlike Smash Brethren 2, giving you more time to manage threats.
  • The map is a callback to the final chapter of the first Fire Emblem on GBA, featuring similar music.
  • Treat this battle as a final confrontation: fight aggressively but with caution.
  • Consider bringing Elincia and/or Eirika if you recruited them in previous DLC maps for extra support.
  • Be aware of heavy hitters like the Black Knight, Micaiah, Sephiran, Lyn, Jaffar, Roy, Eliwood, Hector, Ike, Ashnard, and Titania (who has Counter).
