Strategy

This section details unofficial strategies that may help with completion of the chapter. This may not work for everybody.

Before you begin this chapter, note Jake. He's packing an Arrowspate with 3-10 range that kills fliers, and Caeda doesn't have enough movement to get to him without spending a turn in his attack range. There are four solutions to this problem: reclass her, promote her, hope for a lucky dodge, or waste a Warp use. You get Linde and Jake to join you this chapter. Linde starts as a level 1 Mage and is rather difficult to train, but her semi-unique Aura tome can let her do some solid damage if she needs to. Jake is extremely valuable for his ability to attack at almost any range with no fear of reprisal. Also note that there are no reinforcements in this chapter, so what you see is what you get.

When the chapter starts, immediately get out of the range of the enemy Ballisticians and shoot down the incoming Pegasus Knights. You're in a race with a Thief to reach the southeastern village; once you get there, clear out the Mercenaries, visit the village and Anna's house (she's directly to the left of the lake), and shop if you need to. Afterwards, you can head north and use a save point.

If you use a Cavalier to hit the first Ballistician at two range, you will only cause one Horseman to aggro. Once the Horseman is dead, you can chip the Ballistician to death and advance. Next, you can use one of your Generals to pull in the Sniper with the Killer Bow and take him down. After that, pull in Khozen. Doing so will trigger the enemy Cavalier charge; pull back to the chokepoint and use your General to keep your units alive as you cut him down. Once the cavalry are dead, the battle is won. There are two spaces where Jake and the last Ballistician's blind spots overlap; use it to finish off your enemies and recruit Jake.

Trivia

  • This chapter is one of two in the story of the War of Shadows whose precise Japanese title differs between games (in this case, between Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light and Mystery of the Emblem versus Shadow Dragon), the other being chapter 20.
  • This chapter is also one of only two in the game to share its name with the location it takes place at to not have a different name in the PAL regions release, the other being chapter 7.
  • This map is reused for chapter 19 of Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem.
