This is the fifteenth chapter of the Fire Emblem: Fuuin no Tsurugi draft playthough, completed in 7 turns(105 total) . Onto one of the biggest maps in the game, this one is a huge pain to navigate. I have a few objectives to complete as well as the seize.

Alan gets an early headstart on his journey to the boss. I use deliberate missed attacks, and sometimes even ignoring attack opportunities, to give me the RN accuracy results I need.

Turns out, I can have Echidna more or less safely tackle the few enemies near the Body Ring village alone, leaving everyone else to head east and collect experience that way. I had to try and be careful that my frail units were able to survive any archer or ballista attacks too. Ellen was actually invaluable in keeping my units alive enough this time.

Of the level ups I gain, almost all of them included Str (or Mag in the case of Ellen). Noah's always finicky in that department anyway, but he should be fine after promotion. Alan's Str increase was necessary, since with 19 str I was just able to 4HKO Flaer with the Killing Edge, and the crit allows for a single round of combat instead.

Quite a few weapon rank increases happen this chapter too - Ellen finally hits C Staves, Noah to C Lances being the more important ones. Dorothy gets to promote here, and now that she's got such high Strength she's even able to OHKO some of the wyverns in this chapter. Heck, I even got some use out of the ballista with her.

I could have waited for a few turns in order to allow for some shopping before the seize. I'm not in a desperate struggle for the exp, though, and I can always wait until the later chapters for some Killer weapons. Basic weapon needs are still there, but I think I can just about manage with what I have.

Coming up next is the desert chapter, I'm partially tempted to use the fliers, even though it will cost me a penalty in the draft, it may still be faster in the grand scheme of things. Mind you, I've also drafted Sophia, who turns up in this chapter, so it gives me a slight opportunity to feed her some early exp.
