only thing I grinded for was DEF for Edelgard, so yeah got lucky.

I feel like Edelgard would really get along with Tanya (Youjo Senki), though I doubt Tanya would get along with Nemesis because, you know, Liberation with a capital L = Communism, and see Tanya's anti-Commie speech in the movie.
Had time to get back into my Crimson Flower playthrough. Finally got to the timeskip, and on the month where they're touting the clash against Dimitri. Gotta say... I was really liking the game pre-time skip, but feeling underwhelmed now. It just feels super rushed. Claude taken out in 2 battles, Dimitri seems like he'll be gone quickly too. Even if the story keeps going, things are going way too fast.As for units, my Swordmaster Petra is impressing me, and sword maiden Byleth (or whatever the class is called) is basically a one-person army. Lys basically melts everything. Edelgard is unimpressive if you didn't get her defense to massive levels.Also, what's this about a dancer battalion?
I think that's mostly a CF problem, since it's about 4 chapters shorter than all the other routes. Also, there are numerous dancer battalions you can get that will refresh all units in range. They usually require high levels of authority to actually use, but you can hire them really at any time, though that PROBABLY depends on Professor Level. Also, I know for sure that to get the Mittelfrank Opera Company Volunteers you need to have Dorothea or Manuela visit the Opera House during the battle in Enbarr, and you will get them after the battle.
Remember when I kept talking about Sothis possibly doing the Helga thing from Dies Irae. Well...
Crimson Flower is the shorter one but your sentiment will probably be true even for other routes
and you are not supposed to keep Edelgard in her class, put her in an offensive class to capitalize on her retard strength
also i hear she makes a decent mage
other than that sounds like typical Hard difficulty playthrough
Dancer batallion is not available in CF so nevermind
BL has their own batallion for free i think, and BL / VW / SS you can get it on Enbarr map fulfilling Dorothea / Manuela sidequest on that map
Its op as fuck, it refreshes up to 4 units
(including your own dancer if you put them right)

Despite what people say about Crimson Flower, honestly, it should have been what Cao Pi's path in Warriors Orochi should have been like:
Cao Pi, in his greatness, willingly works with the villain of the arc only to betray said villain when it's convenient for him. However, just like classic Star Wars, no one important dies during these campaigns (stormtroopers are great shots when aiming for common rebel soldiers). Meanwhile, Edelgard's work with the Slitherers does result in important officers dying (at least, the ones whom you do not recruit).
Okay, finally finished Crimson Flower, which was my first route. Will place impressions in a spoiler box below. I want to start another run for Golden Deer, but not sure if I want to do that now or wait for future DLC to hit since it took me this long to beat my first route as is. Though I guess with NG+ and generally knowing what I'm doing, future runs will go more quickly.
Impressions
Mine wasn't. Guess she got screwed there too. Sub-30 resistance is bad.
Though thinking about it, I think only Byleth and Lynhardt wound up with 30+ resistance in my run.
Started my fresh Maddening run for that super awesome, totally not half-assed title screen unlock. Went Blue Lions since I saw a bunch of people advocating for them, and I can see why. Dedue is SUPER useful early on. Not sure how long that will last, but we'll see.
Hey I have problem with Echoes. I'm fighting King of Thieves right now, but he just keep sending me skeleton and the Miasma keep healing the archers at the other side of the wall. What should I do?
Spoiler:
Wandering on internet
Invoke to draw their fire and then kill every long distance fighter/cantor/healer with your mages and archers. Leave Tanks to hold the Skeletons in place if you can.
I'm playing both NG+ Hard Classic Blue Lions and Fresh maddening Church route. All I can say is Thank Sothis for Hp+5 and Training Weapons (and Mini-Bows) being cheap early on because if you don't abuse the heck out of Combat Arts, you will lose someone to Kosta's map. I have never played a longer, more cautious game than that one because I still had Level 1 units and my strongest was Byleth at Level 5 while their units went up to Level 9 with an average of 7. I had to reset to not lose anyone.
And now I have to do Lord Lonato.

“Yet the burden shall be shared by two entwined, from which the sword will part from the body and be bestowed upon the vassal to sacrifice themselves and cleave through space and time.”
“Mark upon this unworthy flesh the emblem of the sacrifice, the vassal whose death shall bring forth victory through the fields of steel and blood!”
“The oath is laid here. We are the ones who represent all the good within the pure lands, and we are the ones who judge what is evil within the pure lands. Thou, Seven Heavens clad in three mere words of unequal power, shall emerge from the spiral of control, O keeper of the balance—!”
I just did that map Friday night. It took like 36 turns of me just baiting whatever enemies were moving at the time into hitting Dedue and then unloading on two of them, making sure the third one couldn't kill anyone on the subsequent turn (via bottlenecks). I'm about to do the mission on the month after, and I have Byleth, Dimitri, Dedue, Felix, and Sylvain at level 5. Everyone else is between 1 and 3 still. Luckily I'm taking Lysethia with me to bond her up, and she can do some great immediate damage.
Also got up to Faith D on Ashe, so he's... helping Mercedes heal and getting some gimme exp. We'll see how bad this mission is. Hopefully I didn't muck up my exp gains, but at least Sylvain has high STR and Dedue has respectable DEF and somehow he's also one of my fastest units (10 SPD at level 5, which is... more than everyone except Byleth and maybe Felix atm).
