Overview:

• Story set on a new continent that has no name because it doesn’t matter what its name is.
• A fun plot full of twists and turns. It takes itself seriously, but definitely revels in some classic Fire Emblem tropes.
• 30 chapters - 1 prologue, 25 main chapters, 1 final chapter, 3 gaiden chapters
• Balanced around hard mode. Normal mode is pretty relaxed. Easy mode doesn’t exist.
• 30 playable characters with essentially no class redundancy
• Many plot essential characters. Not iron-man friendly.
• Supports are fully developed and written for all player characters
• Tellius / Vision Quest style supports
• Unlimited B-supports per character, but limited to 1 A-support per character
• Custom weapons and many fun PRFs to be found
• 2 Warps, 2 Rescues, 2 Hammernes - enough that there’s no need to hoard them until the very end. In fact, later game maps are balanced around using them.
• Custom classes, many of them familiar, a few of them pretty unique
• Player units have 1 personal skill and gain a second on promotion
• There are only a few fog maps, and the fog is weak (you can still see out 4 spaces)
• Music is mainly from Sacred Stones but with some fun additions from other games
• Talk and support do not take your turn to complete
• Viewable growths
• Maps usually have anti-turtle measures like time limits, chests, villages, NPCs in need of saving, and nasty reinforcements
• Javelins and Hand Axes are not sold in shops until the mid-game. They have also had their might reduced by 1. Still very useful, just not quite as dominant as in vanilla.
