We've had a dragon disguised as a dancer, I'm pretty sure we can have ninja disguised as maids

[Tawa]

So they're more like ninja maids then? Spies and agents pretending to be servants to stay close to their masters/targets? _{Or at least that's how I'm rationalizing them, even if the fetish thing is probably the real reason they're in the game.}

Wait, actually, that reminds me.

...MORE COMPLEX STORY AS YOU HAVE TO MAKE THE COUNTRY BETTER FROM WITHIN

I smell stealth missions... involving maids...

_{Yeah, probably the fetish thing.  At least they tried to be subtle with Cherche by giving her a regular class.}

Leaving the silly maid stuff aside for a moment...am I the only one who will probably just stick to Iron weapons throughout the entire game? All of the other varieties listed have such ridiculous downsides that I'm not sure they'd be worth it.

Bronze weapons in particular. No crits?! The hell?!

[i2amroy]

Eh, bronze weapons were in Radiant Dawn as well and they weren't that bad there (actually the -10 to enemy critical hit chance/skill use is a nice buff). I could see carrying one around to deal with bosses or something similar just to prevent those oh so annoying OHKO crits and skill triggers that force mission restarts. More of a situational thing than an everyday weapon.

I could also see uses for the other types as well. Stick a steel weapon on a heavy unit and it's basically just free damage, since their chance of a dodge or attacking twice is pretty low anyways. (Alternatively stick it on a very fast unit, since a -5 penalty to evasion isn't that much for them and they can absorb a -3 penalty to their speed for a dual attack with no problem). Similarly a silver sword could easily be something you stick on a finisher character, that bonus damage could be really nice and most swordsmaster-esque units are fast enough that their enemies don't have that good of a chance of criting them before hand. (And who attacks every single turn with a character like that anyways? ) Similarly a brave weapon could be great on an archer, since most times they shouldn't be being counterattacked anyways, or on a very heavy damage dealer who you rely on just killing the enemy in their two hits before they ever get hit back in return.

Sure, I'd probably stick iron on the majority of characters, but there are definitely some nice strategic usages for the other weapon types (all the knights+paladins with steel, archer's with brave weapons, a myrmidon or two with a silver weapon, one guy with bronze to deal with the boss, and everyone else with iron). Honestly I'm waiting to see if they are going to change the damage strength of some of the higher class weapons (silver, etc.) as well to make up for the fact that they never break now, which used to be one of their major balancing factors.

Who will you be siding with in Fire Emblem If?

[Zangi]

Is that Uncle Phil?  I'll side with Uncle Phil.

...Welcome to Bay12?

Edit: Actually, it seems weird for somebody's first post to be in Other Games, but is it actually common?

[Aklyon]

Usually if someone's first post is in OG its a new thread. Complaints are involved.

[Trapezohedron]

-snop-

Somehow I find myself snickering more than should be warranted.

E: Also, welcome to Bay12!

[Jarvis]

Thanks for the welcome. I wasn't really sure if there was a place for first posters to go.

[Sindain]

Thanks for the welcome. I wasn't really sure if there was a place for first posters to go.

We've had a couple introduction threads but they never got a sticky so they just tend to die before doing anything productive. People are just surprised because most posters tend to start in the upper forums before sinking into the deep dark depths of the lower forums.

Also ptw.
