So having someone else playtest your entry isn’t against the rules? I assumed it was.
Getting someone else to test your entry is perfectly acceptable.

Calculation Manipulation is a FE8U submission; apply .ups patch to the appropriate ROM. Credits can be found in the download link.
Calculation Manipulation is a chapter that mostly revolves around one gimmick: the Control Staff. This is a staff that lets you affect combat by changing the AS threshold, adding extra damage, and/or adding/subtracting to Hit. There’s a few other new items and some additional QoL, as well as multiple difficulties to choose from. If you’re not sure what to play on, I recommend Normal.

The Spellthieves
A Lex Talionis Project by RandomWizard
The Boersgard Academy of Arcane Studies is the greatest school of magic in the land. Its Orthodox Mages have surpassed all rivals, and its dominion over education and sorcery now goes nigh-unchallenged - save for a few angry outcasts (and Bjorn), banding together for a chance at revenge by stealing the Academy’s greatest treasures.
In The Spellthieves, you lead a varied band of spellcasters from widely varied traditions (and Bjorn). Each one, however, casts their magic in a fundamentally different method. To escape the wrath of the Academy, you’ll need to master the skillsets and spell lists of all these thieves, and manage their tenuous allegiances to the cause - before time runs out.
Features
- Lots of cool skills and spells, powered by the Lex Talionis engine.
- The power to change the current map theme on the fly.
- Supports, including paired endings for all conversations. (No, seriously.)
- Tense, high-quality map design and enemy placement by a veteran FE hacker.
- Music from a variety of games, both well-known and obscure.
- Bjorn.
- An attempt at something resembling a deep, thematic story.

Download the initial release version here. To play The Spellthieves, simply extract the .zip file and run double_click_to_play.bat.
Note: As of April 14, I’ve slightly updated the link. The only changes in this version compared to the initial release are fixing a game-crashing bug, as well as correcting a slight omission in the Credits.txt document.
I’m excited to finally put this chapter out into the world after over a month of work, and to see what a wider audience thinks of it - and of the many other amazing hacks and fangames people have made for the CELICA contest.

@Darrman Hi! I’m trying to upload my CELICA project, but since I’ve just been a lurker here before, I don’t have media or link permissions yet, and I really don’t want to miss the deadline. I figured it might be best to ask if you could grant me those permissions.
Edit: Thank you!
Captain’s Log
Made by carrosa in Lex Talionis
Captain Asef Riahi knows little nowadays, but he’s well aware of how dearly he misses his crew. With centuries of extended life having stolen away the memories of his former comrades, he sifts through his dreams in the hopes of reuniting with them one last time.
This is my first finished and released chapter, and I hope you have as much fun playing it as I did creating it!

Fire Emblem: Crowns, Thrones and Rebellion
This is my entry for ‘CELICA’.
You play as an army consisting of generics (Who are just resources) and commanders (Who are story characters).
The story is about a prince who decides to organize a peasant revolt against his tyrannical father. It’s a prequel to ‘Crowns and Thrones’.

what is it about easy mode that don’t work?
Dude did you have to choose this font it is so small
Such unique art style remind me of old Fire Emblem game:
I have a bug to report:
soldier,militia and character unit don’t gain exp after battle
but healer unit do gain exp. Why?
Since you’re playing an entry, could you put your screenshots in a spoiler to avoid influencing the judges, please?
While I’m here, the deadline is in 8 hours and 20 minutes, plus however much time is necessary to process any last-minute entries.

will do
About easy mode: Enemies don’t actually become weaker, that’s all as far as I know.
About exp: It is intentional. The healer still gains exp because I couldn’t figure out how to disable exp gained from staves.

Welcome to the Net Arena, where the rules of combat are a little different than what we are used to. Think of it like everyone’s an archer between some walls. But there are some classes that can ignore that approach.
If you’ve ever played Megaman Battle Network, you’ll understand how this works. Don’t expect world spanning plots though.
This is my submission to CELICA, and first released chapter ever! It’s made with the LT engine, so it just needs to be unzipped and run. Hopefully, it’s not as busted as I think it is.
Credits in the README in the download.
Rules/changes also in the README.
