I'm on Mission 30, and as of now my MVP is, far and away, Sain. Kent isn't too far behind, and the two of them have level A support status, so they're a nearly unstoppable team.
My Eliwood is a bit lacking, which has me worried about the final mission, but my Hector and Lyn are more than capable.
This playthrough I restricted myself in many ways. Besides holding back on Marcus pwnage, I also waited to use stat-up items until the unit hit level 20, I never did that before, I classed them up as soon as I was able. It's a good strategy, Sain and Erk have both become quite powerful as a Paladin/Sage (respectively). I did, however, make an exception with Serra. If I waited till she hit level 20 to level her up I'd be doing it...well around now. And you know how I feel about characters who cannot fight.
I LIKE Canas and want to use him, but he's so slow...anyway he's up to level 17. If I really push him towards those Class-2 enemies I might be able to coax the Druid out of him before facing Nergal.
Oh, and as for supports, I didn't focus too heavily on them this play. I picked a few strategic matchups I wanted (Sain/Kent, Lyn/Rath, etc.) and just let the supports natually unfold. The results:
Rebecca-Dart - A
Lyn-Rath - A
Marcus-Merlinus - A
Sain-Kent - A
Pent-Louise - A (obviously)
Pent-Erk - B
Eliwood-Hector - B
Lyn-Eliwood - C
Lyn-Florina - C
Rebecca-Wil - C
Rath-Guy - C
Matthew-Guy - C
Marcus-Eliwood - C
Sain-Rebecca - C
Sain-Serra - C
Erk-Serra - C
I should have it beaten within a few days, that is unless I once again reach the final battle and cannot win it...but not this time! This time I've got a worthy party to take on the final challenge! <i>En Garde!!!
P.S.: I changed the thread name, since "Hah!" was dumb :D</i>
