Paralogue 12: The Fierce Fighter (Percy)
Paralogue 12, "The Fierce Fighter," allows for the recruitment of Percy, the son of the skilled archer Niles. This paralogue becomes accessible after Chapter 14, provided Niles has achieved a specific support level with another unit. The map for this paralogue often features a dynamic battlefield with various strategic points and a considerable number of enemy combatants. The primary objective is to defeat all enemy units. Percy will appear on the map and can be recruited by having Niles or a unit with a support relationship with Niles speak to him. Failing to recruit Percy in this paralogue will result in his permanent absence from your army. The enemy forces typically comprise a mix of units, including agile skirmishers and potentially some powerful magic users. Therefore, it is prudent to deploy units with high speed and evasion, as well as those with strong resistance to magic. Consider bringing units that can effectively counter enemy archers and mages, such as heavily armored units or those with high defensive capabilities. Utilizing terrain features that offer defensive bonuses, like walls or elevated platforms, can be instrumental in controlling the flow of battle and protecting your units.
- Objective: Defeat all enemies.
- Recruitment: Speak to Percy with Niles or a unit with a support relationship with Niles.
- Key Enemies: Agile skirmishers, magic users, potentially enemy archers.
- Recommended Units: Units with high speed and evasion, high resistance units, anti-archer and anti-mage units.
A frequent mistake in this paralogue is underestimating the threat of enemy magic users. Their spells can quickly deplete the health of your less resistant units. prioritize eliminating these threats early in the battle. Furthermore, be mindful of enemy reinforcements that may appear on later turns, potentially flanking your forces. Careful planning of unit movements and attack orders is crucial for success. If Niles has not reached the required support level, consider using a unit with high evasion to draw enemy fire, allowing your other units to position themselves advantageously. Successfully completing this paralogue not only adds Percy to your army but also provides valuable experience points and potential item rewards.
