VIEWER DILAWAN - BRIGANDINE : GRAND EDITION
15Brigandine: Grand Edition (Japanese: ブリガンダイン グランドエディション) is a remake of Brigandine: The Legend of Forsena that was developed by Hearty Robin and released on 5 May 2000. It had many significant changes, including a multiplayer mode, cutscenes, voice acting, rebalancing of the elements, new Rune Knights and monster classes, the option to play as the Esgares Empire without entering a code, and battles with Bulnoil and the Snake of Chaos.
The game was released only in Japan. There was no official translation to English, but there is an unofficial patch that was released in late 2014 and works with emulated games.

Brigandine: Grand Edition is the remake of Brigandine: Legend of Forsena.
Unfortunately, it was never released in the US. For most people who have
played Brigandine: Legend of Forsena before, the gameplay style in the game
remain pretty much unchanged, and it would not be difficult to play and
complete the game even if one does not read or understand Japanese at all.
However, I decided to create this FAQ to help anyone who needs an extra
reference, or anyone who is totally lost, to at least enjoy this great game
in spite of the language difference.

Points to take note:
-Though this FAQ was not created with the intention of a walkthrough at first,
but seeing as how this is the only FAQ for this game on the site as yet. I
have decided to include as much information as I can with each version update.
This FAQ is also for the purpose of providing necessary clarification and
information one might need to play the game smoothly in terms of controls,
mechanics and understanding.
-In this guide, some stuff are explained down to the basics. So don't think
I'm insulting your intelligence. It's just for the sake of providing exact
and completely clear information all round.
-I will make reference to the original Brigandine: Legend of Forsena as
'LoF'and this game, Brigandine: Grand Edition as 'GE' for short forms.
-Please take note of the implied differences in the meaning of the following
words I use in my description text so you may not be confused:
army: This refers to all the Knights and Monsters under you in a particular
castle battle. Take note that the Ruler of the country is also considered as
a Knight in the game, therefore he/she is counted in the total number of
Knights.
troop: You can use up to a maximum of 3 Knights in a castle battle. Each
Knight and the monsters under him/her I refer to as ONE troop. This means,
in my context, you can use a maximum of 3 troops in a castle battle.
unit: 1 Knight is a unit, 1 monster is a unit. So, 1 Knight and 1 monster
make 2 units.
Knight: Knights are the people you can use in battles. There is a class in
the game called Knight(which is Cavalier in LoF). Do not be confused as to
which one I'm referring to, if I'm talking about the Knight class, I will
specify it clearly with the "class" word.
