The map for this paralogue often presents a strategic challenge, featuring varied terrain and a significant number of enemy units. The main objective is to defeat all enemies on the map. atius will appear on the battlefield and can be recruited by speaking to him with Benny or a unit that shares a support relationship with Benny. As with other paralogues, missing this opportunity means atius will be lost forever. The enemy forces typically consist of a diverse array of units, including strong physical attackers and potentially some aerial threats. Therefore, it's advisable to field units with high defense and resistance, as well as those capable of engaging flying units effectively. Consider bringing units that can exploit enemy weaknesses, such as those wielding effective weapons against armored units or flying units. Utilizing terrain for defensive bonuses, such as forests or forts, can significantly mitigate incoming damage.

A common oversight in this paralogue is neglecting the importance of unit positioning. Enemies can often surround your forces if you're not careful, leading to difficult combat scenarios. It's recommended to advance cautiously, securing each area before moving forward. Pay close attention to the enemy's weapon triangle and type advantages to maximize your damage output and minimize incoming damage. For instance, using a strong lance unit against an axebearer can be highly effective. If Benny is not sufficiently leveled or supported, consider using another unit with high defensive stats to initiate combat and draw enemy attention, allowing other units to flank or provide support. Successfully completing this paralogue not only adds atius to your army but also grants valuable experience and potential item rewards.
