Fire Emblem: Three Houses Playthrough 38 (Church Route): The Battle of Garreg Mach
0It is time for the battle between the Adrestian Empire and the Church of Seiros, and Byleth must lead his troops against the Imperial Army and protect Rhea and the Monastery. We not only have to fight Edelgard, our former house leader, but we also have to fight Hubert and the Death Knight as well, as well as the Imperial Generals.
As for the rest of the description, I recommend watching the full video before reading past this point of the description
I did upload the map on Black Eagles where you team up with Edelgard, but this time, this is the Black Eagles path where we protect the Church troops. The music is Roar of Dominion, and it goes well for being the final battle in Part 1, and Byleth and his troops have to defend the Church from the Imperial Army.
This map has some Ballistae, Fire Orbs, and Onagers, which you can use for long ranged attacks, and some of them are used by the enemy troops, the Ballistae can be very useful against the Pegasus Knights on this map, and there are some Winged Demonic Beasts on this map, which you can have your Archers fight.
Rhea is at the start of the map, and you must not let her be defeated in battle, she does have the Sword of Seiros, which heals 50% of damage dealt, and you cannot obtain that weapon in the game, she does have some powerful spells like Bolganone and Agnea's Arrow. If you didn't recruit Hanneman or Manuela, they will appear as NPC units, Hanneman being the Mage on a Fire Orb, and Manuela being a Priest.
The first thing we have to do is capture the strongholds, one is guarded by Hubert, he has unique dialogue if any Black Eagles student fight him, and the other is guarded by the Death Knight. Those two are tough opponents, Hubert is the easier one out of the two, while he does have some dark spells and Vestra Sorcery Engineers for his Battalion, his Defense is very low, so weapons can take him out in one hit, specially if you use Combat Arts against him, he does have a Prayer Ring on Maddening, which you can steal from him.
The Death Knight is back once again, but this time you should be able to stand up to him, he does have Scythe of Sariel, giving him a high crit chance, and he has Counterattack to counter any of your attacks. If you have Spear of Assal, that can take out the Death Knight very easily, or if you have Knightkneeler on any of your Lance units, that can work as well. A nearby Cavalier will drop a Crescent Sickle when defeated, and the Death Knight drops a Dark Seal when you defeat him.
When you have captured the strongholds, you get ally reinforcements, defeating Hubert will bring reinforcements led by a Sniper, which would be Shamir if you didn't recruit her, and defeating the Death Knight brings reinforcements led by a Swordmaster, that would be Catherine if she was not recruited, but it is on other routes, Shamir and Catherine are recruited automatically on this route.
Then to go over the Imperial Generals, first one is Randolph, and he has unique dialogue if you let Caspar fight him, he is a Warrior with a Silver Axe, and he has Axefaire and Axe Crit +10, making him a dangerous foe, his Battalion of Empire Raiders is not that accurate, his Res isn't that great, so magic attacks can work well against him.
Next is Ladislava, don't know why they made her a Paladin when you side with Edelgard, and a Wyvern Rider when you side with the Church, but anyway, her starting position is different on Maddening, she would start near your starting position. Ladislava has a Silver Axe, and she has Aegis to decrease damage from magic or bows based on Dexterity, and she has Avo +10 and a good Speed stat, so she can avoid most attacks, and she has Empire Wyvern Elite Co. for her Battalion, she also doesn't have good Res, so magic attacks are good against her.
The last opponent is Edelgard, who is in her Flame Emperor class, and she will very likely start off with her Battalion, Flame Emperor Co., which has a very wide range, and it is a powerful Battalion. She has Counterattack, Seal Strength, and Seal Magic for skills, making her a tough opponent, and she has unique dialogue if you let Byleth or any Black Eagles student fight her. Her Defense is very high, so it would be your best time to use your most powerful weapons, like Heroes' Relics, against her, or use your most powerful Combat Arts against her, and she cannot counter an attack from a Ballista or Onager.
After that battle, we get a cutscene where we see a large white dragon known as The Immaculate One, but this time, things are different with the white dragon compared to the side route, and after the cutscene, it is the end of Part 1, we'll see what happens next time.
