A statement that’s been echoed by many who’ve played FE7 is that Eliwood would be a better unit if he had Lances at bases. With how often this statement’s been made, I think it’s right that a version of the game exists that puts just this to the test. This is a patch of FE7 that only makes the following changes:

  • Eliwood starts with a lance rank instead of swords
  • Eliwood’s Rapier is changed to the Eligor Spear (wonder what that’s a reference to) with stats better than an Iron Lance by the amount the Rapier is better than an Iron Sword
  • Eliwood gets +1 con in Tier 1 so he doesn’t get weighed down by an Iron Lance
  • Durandal is replaced by Maltet, having its FE6 stats with +4 weight similar to how the Durandal was in vanilla

Also all difficulties are available from the start. Besides that it’s just FE7.

Missed opportunity for fe7 to not have 3 lords mirror the weapon triangle. This is brilliant!

Also the link that you shared needs permission
