Quotes
Lyn: Are you awake?
[Then Mark the Tactician wakes up from his bed and sees he's inside Lyn's tent]
Lyn: I found you unconscious on the plains. I am Lyn of the Lorca tribe. You're safe now. Who are you? Can you remember your name? Your name is Mark, what an odd-sounding name... But play me no mind. It is a good name. I see by your attire that you are a traveler. What brings you to the Sacae Plains? Would you share your story with me? Hm? What was that noise? I'll go see what's happening. Mark, wait here for me.
[Lyn goes out of her tent and hides in the trees and sees bandits on the field. Lyn then heads back inside her tent]
Lyn: Oh no! Bandits! They must have come down from the Bern Mountains! They must be planning on raiding the local villages. I... I have to stop them! If that's all of them, I think I can handle them on my own. You'll be safe in here Mark. What? You want to help? Well can you use a weapon? Ah, I see... So you're a strategist by trade? An odd profession, but... Very well. We'll go together!
[Lyn and Mark goes outside of the tent while Lyn hides in the trees from the bandits on the fields]
Lyn: Over here! If you want to help Mark, I could use your advice. I'll protect you, so stay close to me.

Alternate versions
The Wii U Virtual Console version has a save state feature that allows the player to grind experience points with boss fights and is used for cheat at the arena, in case the player loses one of their fighters, they can use the save state to prevent losing one of their fighter units, this is much easier than the Gameboy Advance version which has the player starting the chapter all over. Also the Battle Arena connection link originally for Gameboy Advance will no longer work as this is a download game which doesn't allow for connections.

Sorry, roy your dad's adventure was better

This is in my top five favorite fire emblem games and the reason is that it's the best comfort food even if I feel like I'm playing Dynasty Warriors at some point.

The story is really good. I enjoy the journey of it. It doesn't feel like a war stories like the others it feels like an adventure, It is refreshing. What's the best part of it is the charadesign looks good and the characters of very likeable and rounded in most we god specially the main characters Beast Boy hector.

I enjoy most in the story is because the characters are a bit older. They feel like the story can go a bit more in the depth if you feel like more of the character have lived alive. I mean in the previous looked like 14 years and now they look like 18 year olds in the character designs.

The Maps feel well designed most of the time they each have a thing going and they are luckily they are lucky not too long , i don't get drained too much and especially the maps in the middle of the game filled the most fun and in the later half of the game, way too many enemies and way too many reforcements sadly.

I really enjoy the cast they have so many likable characters and the good part by the enemies are so weak are that every character can be used even if they're not optimal because the enemies are weak the sad part. Is that the hardest part of the game is just getting enough axes to kill everybody . It's just way too many enemies sadly.

Sorry, roy your dad's adventure was better with more likable characters and a villain who was very sad and pathetic when you know his back story.
