Chapter 7 : Field of the Eagle and Lion

This is a three-way battle, involving the three houses. You’ll earn a reward if you defeat more enemies than the other classes. The best (but risky) way of achieving this is by storming through the middle and take out members of the other two classes as they move towards each other. You don’t need to divide your forces in this battle, unless you’re confident that they can take out enemies alone or with minimal Support.

To start off, you should prioritize taking over the central position. This location has a ballista that has exceptional Range and can deal huge amounts of Damage. However, this can only be operated by a unit with the Bow Skill rank D or higher. Once you’re able to operate it, use it to soften heavily armored targets or finish off weakened enemy units.

There are vanguard units from both rival houses near your position. You don’t need to go to them; instead, have them come to you. Just keep your units in formation so that they couldn’t focus on one allied unit and you can easily Support each other.

After two turns, the retainer of the house occupying the southeast corner of the Map will attempt to draw the opposing army to the southwest. You can intercept this movement so that the SW army will not move and catch your army in the middle.

The house leaders will stay on their strongholds until any of your own units or other hostile units get into their Range. They’re incredibly powerful so it’s recommended to systematically wipe out their minions before luring them to the open. There’s a heal tile in the lower-middle position which can help you secure that position safely.

Just do the basics; lure enemy units towards your main force, avoid overextending, keep your healers close, and focus your attacks if necessary. Once you wiped out almost all units of a house, you can have your house leader defeat another rival house leader to trigger a special dialogue before combat.

Don’t forget to loot the Killer Lance from the chest beside the house occupying the southwest corner.

After defeating a house leader, you can now focus on surrounding the last rival house leader. Like before, have your house leader attack the rival leader for another pre-combat dialogue or just finish them off. Since there are no demonic beasts in this battle, don’t hesitate to use your Gambits against the house leaders to maintain the advantage. After finishing the house leader off, the battle will end.
