Dagdar's Manor (Japanese: ダグダの館 Dagdar's Mansion) is chapter 8x of Fire Emblem: Thracia 776. In order to play this chapter, the player must have captured and not released Rumei, the boss of the previous chapter, and Dagdar and Tanya must have been alive and uncaptured at the end of Chapter 3.

Plot

Main article: Dagdar's Manor/Script

Having defeated and captured the outside guard Rumei, Leif and his allies hurry into the mansion. Inside, Dagdar and Tanya are under attack by the insubordinate bandit Gomez. Gomez is furious about his hopeless situation; Dagdar has had his bandits attempt to farm to provide for themselves but all that they've ended up with is starvation.

During the battle Leif tells Dagdar that Eyvel is still imprisoned in Munster when Dagdar wonders where she is. Leif says he was unable to rescue her as he escaped. After a brief bout of anger at this, Dagdar calms himself and reassures Leif that he'll help from then on.

Shortly after Gomez is dealt with, August tells a confused Leif that people rob and murder because they have no other choice in Thracia. He says the biggest cause of this is Thracia's infertile soil; children end up abandoned because they cannot be fed and these children become bandits. Leif is saddened; he hadn't known food was a problem as Finn would always make sure he were fed. August also tells Leif about the food tariffs that Leonster has inflicted on Thracia since the Tragedy of the Gáe Bolg soured relations.

With Gomez's failed coup resolved, Leif leaves Dagdar's base and resumes their trek, directed by Carrion, to Hannibal's mansion.

Strategy

The map consists of two long corridors containing Archers with Poison Bows. Poison Bows have low hit, and units with high avoidance can usually dodge their attacks; alternately, units with high HP can simply take the poison damage.

Dagdar and Tanya begin the chapter isolated from other player units and surrounded by enemies. Dagdar will lose avoidance with a Hammer equipped, which may lend itself to some problems when paired with his Accost skill; additionally, Dagdar is very likely to die if he has a broken weapon equipped, as that will greatly reduce his avoid and attack speed. If Tanya unequips her weapon, she may be subject to being captured by the enemy. Dagdar and Tanya support each other, and they should be able to avoid most attacks by the time Leif's group reaches them. If they have Vulneraries, they can heal any damage from attacks they fail to avoid, and if they don't Safy can heal them with Physic. Tanya in addition has the hidden Immortal skill, like Eyvel in chapters prior, and cannot be killed—but can be captured—for the first 15 turns of the chapter.

This map contains the Wrath Manual, which is useful for improving a character's combat or pairing with the Lands Sword or Nosferatu later on; the Nál Scroll, which raises constitution growth; and the Leg Ring, which increases movement and is especially useful in escape chapters.

Gomez is regarded as one of the most difficult bosses of Thracia 776. He has a high damage output, a high hit rate, remarkable speed, great physical bulk, and can counter at 2-range. Asbel's Grafcalibur is very effective when fighting him, though Asbel will be unable to follow up even with capped speed.
