Part 2 is here! In this section, things go from bad to worse as my soldiers continuously come down with bad cases of sudden death.
Carmencita's channel (she did such a good job with her section!): / @ccondelli
Game: You can have 16 (or sometimes 16+1 if a unit joins) per level
You: I have 8 people total because everyone else died
Game: Minimum deployment it is
hehe yep. The game is out there trying its best to take pity on me xD
I was completely right about how the Sara recruitment was missed, though at 9:23 Leif being literally 1 tile off from recruiting her is certainly funnier than the usual situation I've seen.
On my own blind playthrough I just assumed she's recruitble, becuase she just randomly has Wrath, Miracle and Paragon, which is definitely not the usual unarmed enemy cleric combo. Though ofc I wasn't ironmanning either, so I was also not in anywhere near as a desperate situation as you were in here, so laser focusing on Restore is understandable.
All that to say, don't listen to August in this instance and just go A route lmao. He himself admits that his plan was stupid in 17B iirc, so yeah.
Master swords are no joke, especially with crit=Skill and crit dodge=Luck/2 and without scrolls. That 10 crit means even Leif with 20 luck would've had a 10% chance at minimus of dying without Nanna support, which... Yeah.
That ballad singing section was wonderful!
Fun fact, that's something that was entirely added by the Project Exile translation and kept unaltered for Lil' Munster. Also kinda weird that Sara's theme plays for it, though the tone fits, I suppose.
Finn was definitely saved by a billion Miracle procs there. That's the only way he survived for that long. But unfortunately the only way for Miracle to even remotely approach FE4 reliability, he needs his Brave Lance, since with it he has +30% chance to just not die, which caps at 90% total with 20 luck.
Yeah, this is a very tough situation. Dunno if soft ironman rules are a blessing or a curse 😅
Still, I saw a JP guy beat the game with 6 units by endgame and he was so desperate for combat units as to make a pretty frail Sara hopefully avoid/Miracle tank Reinhardt and kill him. So Thracia gives some room even in absolutely desperate situations.
All I needed to do to recruit Sara was to just speak to her with Leif? Hahaha, oh man, I had no idea, I figured she was recruitable somehow but didn't actually know how. Either way I was so focused on restore that I just did not see her as a human in that moment, just as a way to avoid losing my entire army.
Haha, yeah, the forest was definitely the wrong decision. Definitely an entertaining level from your perspective though, it was probably the most scrappy, on edge level of the entire run, between the poison chipping my units down, having limited heals at the time, and the forest making it very hard to position my army. I wanted to get out of there from the moment I entered. As much as I hated the level, I gotta admit the way I played through it really fit the narrative and story of the game.
In retrospect, I probably should have given Leif a scroll, but in the semi-ironman ruleset, losing someone like Orsin is actually much worse than getting a game over. So Leif died a couple times as a result of my decision to give other units scrolls over him.
Aww, thanks, I'm glad you liked the singing! I absolutely loved that little easter egg in the game. This was a later addition to my script, originally I was just going to keep the original audio/video in there, but then I asked my friend if she wanted to sing it for me, and she agreed to. She did such a good job and I'm really happy with the way it came out! I'm also glad that there's a Fire Emblem TCG with shockingly incredible artwork, because otherwise I'm not sure how I would have edited that section.
Ooh, I forgot that Finn had miracle, that makes a lot of sense! As this was happening I was amazed he lasted so long.
Soft ironman rulesets are interesting because they're usually self-balancing. If you're in a terrible situation, you get a lot of game overs and can learn the level. If you're in a good situation, you usually beat the level but might play poorly and lose a couple units in the process. It's not perfect, but I really like this method for playing blind runs (or playing FE in general), it makes the game super intense all the way through because of that inherent balancing factor.
Thanks for leaving such a detailed comment, I loved reading through it! Part 3 comes out next Saturday, which will be the last part of this series. I'm glad you're enjoying my misfortune! :D
Thank god civilians make good shields. Lol.
I hate the forest. Damn I hate it you have much less enemies then the other route but the forest is just so annoying.
The forest is the worsttttttt!
Definitely one of my most stressful and probably most entertaining levels though haha
I can't blame you for starting over, honestly. I know this is supposed to partially be an ironman run, but Thracia is an absolutely absurd game, so. LOL
@@gyppygirl2021 there’s a reason I called it semi-Ironman. It’s definitely not a true Ironman, because otherwise I would have died on chapter 5 and the video would have been much more shorter.
The number of the game is the amount of TPK you had?
Good theory. If you add in part 3... uh... maybe...
@@redwings13400 i watched this video while doing some pc troubleshooting
