  So, who has gotten this? I know Arsik has.
  
  What are your teams? Are you playing on Classic? Thoughts on the game thus far? Favorite character? Who are you shipping your avatar with.
  
  
  I named my Avatar Brynn and he's a pretty OP mage lol. Will be pairing him with Tharja. Also I'm playing on Classic and Hard mode.

  I got the game before the release because I'm a cheater canadian. Finished it once on hard classic as male avatar. Married him to [SPOILER="Spoiler"]Lucina[/SPOILER].
  
  I started a new game on hard classic again with a female avatar which I married to Lon'qu. Got an OP Morgan with Galeforce. Working on getting all the male child who can have it inherit galeforce.
  
  Tried Lunatic casual...too much bullshit for me to continue right now. I'll pick it up one of those day maybe.

  ok uhh my Avatar is now a Grandmaster and 40HP+, freaking like usually 50%ish chance to dodge, 30+ damage per attack and is usually double. WHY.

  Double as in you 2x-ing the enemy or the enemy doing that to you? In either case you either have low or high speed. Formula to double is
  Your speed - enemy speed.
  
  If the difference is greater or equal to five you'll double.

  Hard Classic atm, lunatic sounds fun.
  
  Post chapter 11 spoilers here with pairings.
  [spoiler]
  Chrom married Sumia, Avatar married Lissa, seemed nice, until i had to use Lissa's Rescue to rescue Morgan since level 10 cleric vs promoted assassins. NOPE. Had to level up the mother's magic to extend the range of rescue farther...
  
  Married Miriel with Lon'qu. Hilarious dialogue.
  Married Henry with Olivia <---- actually makes me sorta like henry now.
  Married dragon girl with gaius. CANDY, SUGAR. That guy is hilarious.
  Sully with knight that nobody cares about, (ironic that i forgot his name, Kellen?)
  Creepy dark mage with frederick. (Hilarious dialogue)
  Ricken with Maribelle (eh)
  [/spoiler]
  
  
  Game is great, gonna have some fun doing other pairings later.

  I had a wind tome that was 2x hits. Cecilia's gale?
  Made it x4!
  Combat choices
  [spoiler]
  Avatar and Chrom are my heavy hitters. With creepy dark mage girl getting up there as a tank, same with henry. Dragon girl is high up there now too.
  I sometimes drag anna around because she is such a jew.
  [/spoiler]
  I always pair someone up in game.
• Lyrveil wrote on 2013-02-14 07:22
  Pairing up is actually recommended due to the change to hit/dodge formula.
  
  I also found Ricken x Maribelle dialogue super cute and actually having some romance compared to some like (don't click if you don't want pairing spoilers)
  [SPOILER="Spoiler"]Oh she makes good pies. I shall marry that girl. Chrom and Sumia support was so ugh[/SPOILER]
  
  And yeah the weapon that automatically allow you to hit twice will hit 4 times if you can double. So all the brave weapon + celica's gale/Eirika's blade. You can get some pretty awesome result if your paired up unit has one of those too.
  
  Attack > support attack x2 > attack > support attack x2 > enemy attack > attack > support attack x2 > attack > support attack x2. Implying anything would survive that long. That's not counting Astra which could lead you to 20 hits potentially.

  The ricken maribelle combo was the only one that sounded "normal".
  
  I like all of the odd supports, still say Olivia and Henry is quite heart warming.
  Dont get me started on creepy mage girl and frederick. Makes frederick into a badass.
  [spoiler]
  Frederick has a cold, mage girl taunts him saying she hexed him,
  Frederick gets upset, decided he shall beat the cold in 10 seconds due to sheer willpower, cold is gone, she is astounded and admits she didnt put a hex on him.
  I actually like frederick now.

  If you're having much fun with shadow dragon you'd enjoy Awakening too. Shadow Dragon is the worse in the series. That game had such bad design. The need to kill your own unit for bonus chapters. Everyone had bad stat growth mostly.
  
  You should try heroes of light and shadow once you're done with it. It's the sequel to shadow dragon and it's actually pretty damn good. There's a fan translation for it available here http://www.heroesofshadow.net/
  
  
  Back to awakening: The DLC have hilarious dialogue in them. Especially the gold farming one where each character has something to say about their finance or lack of in battle.

  My avatar so OP imo
  
  Currently a Dark Rider
  Galeforce + Lifetaker + Ignis + aegis + lethality
  
  I dunno why I have lethality still since my char can take on most of the content. Just preppin for those insane dlc maps
• Hitaki wrote on 2013-02-14 21:10
  New dlc out today. Includes Micaiah and a +2 all stat skill (per completion) and the TONS OF GOLD map. I'm debating whether or not to buy the gold map or not since I'm 70 cents off of buying the entire pack it comes in, though at the same time I don't think I'm strapped for funds at the moment (Currently my source of gold is off using MU to massacre everyone using Despoil to yield a 51% drop rate on bullion).

  I am eager to try to the new DLC maps, hard mode playthrough is just a dry run of the content, i will certainly enjoy lunatic+. dat minmaxing.
  
  Also just worked on getting S supports for the other characters, now to work on the game.
  Is it me, or are dark mages incredibly obnoxious in this game and swordmasters do not have enough avoid compared to other fire emblems.
• Hitaki wrote on 2013-02-15 02:10
  Welp, caved in and decided to buy the gold map. No regrets either. Not only do you get 70k+ per clear, but the dialogue is hilarious. Can't wait for the rest of the DLC to make it's way.
