  1. Welcome to Fire Emblem General! If you post a question that is answered here I will stab you in the dick -RB
  2.  
  3. >Which game should I play first?
  4.  
  5. If you've never played FE before, Fire Emblem 7, also known as just Fire Emblem, contains a great tutorial and is an excellent introduction, and has a very balanced difficulty. Fire Emblem 8 (The Sacred Stones) is easier than the others, due to opportunities to grind, excellent units, and (generally) weaker enemies.
  6.  
  7. >What is FE# about? Is it good? Should I play __? Here are the general thoughts on each FE:
  8.  
  9. FE1 - A game that hasn't aged well. Read: FE3
  10. FE2 - FE2 is a very non-standard Fire Emblem, the first to feature the world map, branched promotion, third tier promotions, non-standard weapons and villages. The story concerns two separate armies and alternates throughout the story. Despite being very non-standard, Gaiden is still a fun game to play.
  11. FE3 - Also hasn't aged well. Both FE1 and FE3 have been largely made obsolete by FE11 and FE12. Better graphics and somewhat improved gameplay, and also the fact that its on DS and not on a very limited NES helps it as well.
  12. FE4 - Great story, good gameplay, difficulty can disappear in the second half of the game with good decisions in the first half. This game is actually pretty incredible, the maps are immense and intense and the game has good music. A very solid FE game.
  13. FE5 - Good gameplay, and a large amount of difficulty. The lord in FE5 is mediocre, and that tends to add difficulty. The translation is not very well done, but it has a few interesting game mechanics not seen in other FE games. The story line is dependent on FE4, so play that one first.
  14. FE6 - On the difficult side of games, the true end is easy to miss and the only Lord is mediocre.
  15. FE7 - Great entry point. Good balance of gameplay and difficulty. Prequel to FE6. Has an extensive tutorial that is great for beginners.
  16. FE8 - Very easy, but still fun. Branching promotions and two distinct storylines makes for good replay value.
  17. FE9 - Good characters and gameplay, but very easy. The main lord is very strong in comparison to the FE5 and FE6 lords.
  18. FE10 - FE10 is a direct sequel to FE9. Very good gameplay, consisting of the largest cast of playable characters, and the longest (in terms of chapters) FE game yet. Large amounts of replay value, but no supports and a questionable storyline are points of contention.
  19. FE11 - Generally disliked due to sparse story and dated gameplay. A remake of FE1. Although slightly improved, still hasn't aged well. Gaiden(extra) chapters require you to kill off your own units, which is very counter-intuitive and a large point of contention with the game.
  20. FE12 - A sequel to FE1(FE11), a remake of book 2 if I remember correctly. allows you to create a character "My Unit" to insert into the game to traipse about with Marth. Not 100% translated yet. Improved features over FE11 include added conversations(in moonspeak), and very difficult lunatic and reverse lunatic modes. They earn those names.
  21. FE13 - Out in Japan, Confirmed for EU, no word on NA.
  22.  
  23. >IS FE12 TRANSLATED? GIVE ME NEWS
  24.  
  25. I'm surprised at how many of these we still get. No, the game isn't fully translated. Yes its in the works. Only the menu is translated right now.
  26.  
  27. >I WANT MORE NEWS ON FE12
  28.  
  29. heroesofshadow.net
  30.  
  31. >My unit just died! ;_;
  32.  
  33. Unless you restart the chapter, they're gone for good. Death is permanent. [spoiler];_;7[/spoiler]
  34.  
  35. >How do I get supports?
  36. Hoo boy. Just leave two compatible units directly next to each other(not diagonal) for a set amount of turns, the amount of turns differs based on the characters. You can't get supports in Lyn Mode for FE7(the first 10 chapters)
  37.  
  38. >When is Fire Emblem: Awakening coming out?
  39.  
  40. It's out in Japan, has been confirmed for EU but has no release date, and no word whatsoever on an NA release.
  41.  
  42. >How is my character looking?
  43.  
  44. Go to Serenes and look at the averages.
  45.  
  46. >Which hack should I play?
  47.  
  48. Elibian Nights and FE Girls are the best in story and gameplay respectively. Gheb Saga if you're in middle school.
  49.  
  50. >What hack is this?
  51.  
  52. It's probably FE Girls.
  53.  
  54. >In Fire Emblem Girls, how do I-
  55.  
  56. Stop. Check at http://lensterknight.superbusnet.com/other/Hacks/FE8%20Girls/ before you say a word.
  57.  
  58. >Where can I get this ROM/hack?
  59.  
  60. The compilation download.
  61.  
  62. >What units should I use?
  63.  
  64. Use the characters you like. The games should be beatable using whoever.
  65.  
  66. >What is a "Nuzlocke Run"?
  67.  
  68. Its simply a run of a given FE with varying restrictive rules, the most common being a blind run, but always including no restarts when a unit dies. Super Doofus popularized Nuzlockes with his blind-no-restarts run of FE6, and his poor tactical decisions and bad luck were a great source of comedy.
  69.  
  70. >Fire Emblem Girls keeps crashing at this new chapter.
  71.  
  72. Mash Start every time you finish a chapter.
  73.  
  74. >What is with the "Professional Motherfuckers" thing?
  75.  
  76. Someone made a hack where Wallace referred to Kent and Sain as such.
  77.  
  78. >What does Affinity affect?
  79.  
  80. Affinity affects the stat bonuses characters receive from Supports.
  81.  
  82. >Can I deploy all of my units?
  83.  
  84. No, sire.
  85.  
  86. >... WHY NOT?
  87.  
  88. No, sire.
  89.  
  90. >Where's that awesome Let's Play of FE1?
  91.  
  92. http://shaym.in/fe1/lp.html
  93.  
  94. >What is with you guys and being HUGE?
  95.  
  96. Huge isn't just a status, it's a state of mind. You don't become huge by wearing all the armour, but you must have the correct attitude to be able to do this properly, so it is a good start.
  97.  
  98. No, huge is more than just what is on the outside. Huge is when you look at the world, the legions of foes, and all the weapons the enemies possess, and say, "No." When you have reached the point of not giving a single fuck about anything the enemy can throw at you, you are well on your way to being huge.
  99.  
  100. This is why tiny Dragonstone users can be considered huge. They are tiny on the outside, but on the inside, they are truly as huge as the hugest generals.
  101.  
  102. >That last paragraph was pretty boring/tired/trite
  103.  
  104. Yea we know. Basically HUGE is just a unit(usually a general) with very good stats. Its a bit of a tired joke, and is a point of contention in FEG threads.
  105.  
  106. >/FEG/ THREADS ARE/HAVE ALWAYS BEEN SHIT
  107.  
  108. Sucks
  109.  
  110. >Can I be a pretty /feg/asus knight?
  111.  
  112. [spoiler]If you believe.[/spoiler]
