[FE8] Fire Emblem: The Morrow's Golden Country [COMPLETE]

I love chapter 26 so I now did it in just 1 turn… and it accidentally turned into more Yuyu propaganda by only using her to kill all the required enemies while getting spammed with “Again“ staffs.

Hey, using Tactical Nuke Yuyu strat is actually optimal because killing the bosses is not trivial.

What does Zeke’s “courian Legacy” skill do? just want to know if I should give him capped skills prior to his promo or not in repeat playthrough, and the flavour text doesn’t explain it

I’m a casual Fire Emblem enjoyer (in that I play a lot of Fire Emblem games but always on the easiest difficulties). I thought Easy mode would allow for a more laid back experience but it’s been absolutely brutal (I’ve already lost 3 of my 6 first characters I got, and didn’t get any of the chests). I feel like making a single mistake on Easy mode shouldn’t mean a character dies right away, especially a pre-promote.

I understand most people who play these rom hacks are hardcore, so I get it if I’m not the target audience, just wanted to give some feedback in that regard.

TMGC was supposed to be the first English hack I beat, but when I reached 25x, the Chinese version was released. And certainly, I wouldn’t refuse to play in my native language.

After it, I played CotBK. One can see how hacks of Retina evolved. The data design is more meticulous, while some design concepts have been carried forward, such as… returning minibosses. (Btw I love the cat in the closing credits of CotBK.)

TMGC offers diverse skills and items, and successfully helped me learn to use them to play better. Especially in the postgame. And it has many great features, like free movement in interlude chapter, view convoy, base conversations and so on. But I’d better not repeat what was in the OP.

Despite covering some serious topics, it still gives me a heartwarming feeling… or maybe it’s just because I love Terra’s theme? The storyline is standard (positive). If I were to recommend a hack suitable for beginners, it would undoubtedly be an option.

And it has sooo many fanworks. A real feast.

(Trying to think of a closing line to prove I enjoyed the conversation viewer…)

TMGC Team, good night (from UTC+8).

Spoiler question

I’ve noticed that all of the Simulacra bosses use generic portraits despite having unique ones in life. What is the reason behind this design choice? Just curious.

Sorry if this has been addressed in this thread already, I tried to find an answer and was unsuccessful.

Chapter 10 & recruitment spoilers:

I am having a devil of a time with sparing Jonas. If I try to stall him with the Opistians, they’ll massacre him and his whole squad. If I rescue the light mages, the wyverns find a way to one shot one of my squishy guys well before the 8 turns are up. If I try to bum-rush Lazarus, the pre-promoted gank squad will outspeed and kill one of my guys before I get over there. What’s your guys’ normal game plan for this chapter?

Chapter 10

I agree that sparing Jonas is really hard and generally not worth going for. I managed to do it once by using the Runestaff to trap Jonas in place until turn 8 (though my execution wasn’t perfect and I lost a unit in the process), after seeing this strategy on Dani Doyle’s 0% growths playthrough.

Is anything stopping me (or discouraging me) from just giving my bard Todd infinite exp with Yuyu? (Are there some mechanics that will make this a bad idea I might not know of?)

Also had a question about yuyu: her talent text is not clear to me, “protected from all effective attacks”, I don’t follow. She still seems to take damage.

10/10 fantastic romhack, this is the best FE game made, as good as 3 houses and it’s in freaking GBA game

Effective attacks means attacks from weapons that deal effective damage against certain targets, such as bows against fliers or hammers against armor knights. Yuyu will just take normal damage from those weapons, even while in a class they’re effective against.

Thanks, got it!

I’m just wondering if this hack will ever get support for gpSP.

This was my first romhack, and I love it a whole lot. Really awesome stuff! Great characters, innovative design, great replayability. It has a special place in my heart, and for good reason. Straight up 5/5 game
