Strategy

InArchanea Saga, both of the villages rewardVulneraries for visiting them; these are notmeans required, but they may be desired as healing is greatly limited initially. Every unit exceptCatria andEst can reach the village before theThief does. Of the enemies near the start, the Thief does little to no damage to anyone, theArchers move away and can safely be ignored, and theCavaliers can do decent damage but cannot double. The biggest threat isHorsemen; they have high movement and can threaten a wide area, they have high enough speed to avoid being doubled, and they deal significant damage toMinerva, Est, and Catria—enough to one-shot Est and leave the other two very vulnerable in the beginning.

The central clump ofKnights all do 5 damage to Minerva, who can double them with aSilver Lance and one-round them, allowing her to deal with most of the group so long as she is not in range of an Archer as well. Ruben moves to attack any player unit he can reach, but most of the area he can move to is also within range of Knights, Archers, Horsemen, and Cavaliers. There is an area near whereFrost starts where he can reach, and thus be lured away from the rest of his army and taken out withWolf, Minerva, andHardin; however, asDracoknight could randomly appear from the gate, and whomever was luring Ruben would be attacked by two units—at base, Minerva could take both hits and survive with 4 HP.

Seizing the gate does not end the chapter, but it does provide whoever seizes it with a Vulnerary; by the time that someone can safely seize the gate, the Vulnerary will likely be unnecessary.

Trivia

• InArchanea Saga, the player can visit the castle to the left of the map to save agirl (pictured); supposedly the same one kidnapped at the start of the chapter. InNew Mystery of the Emblem, the player cannot visit the castle or see the girl (aside from in the opening).
