Walkthrough
- 1West Side: Have Oswin take the west side of the map. He'll need to confront reinforcements heading your way and eventually defeat the boss, Puzon, who is located in the northwest.
- 2East Side: Matthew and Guy should handle the eastern side. Try to have them stand on fortresses if possible to gain defensive bonuses against the enemies coming from that direction.
- 3Central Defense: Dorcas should stay put and defend the central area. Marcus should rescue Merlinus and head south to keep him safe.
- 4North Paths: Lowen should take the right path heading north, with Rebecca backing him up. Eliwood should take the left path north, supported by Bartre. Hector will guard the path to the west in the central area. Serra can stay in the middle to provide support.
- 5Mid-Game Push: Over the next few turns, Oswin needs to push north, dealing with any reinforcements he encounters.
- 6Village Visit: Once the enemies to the north are cleared, move your main force up. Lowen should break through the snag to the east and make sure to visit the village to grab the 5000G.
- 7Final Defense: Hector, Eliwood, Rebecca, and Bartre, with Serra providing support, will need to handle any remaining incoming enemies.
Tips
- Keep an eye on Merlinus's position and ensure he's always defended.
- Utilize terrain like fortresses to your advantage, especially for Matthew and Guy on the east side.
- Coordinate your units to cover all approaches, particularly the north and east where enemies will likely appear.
