Fire Emblem: Dark Stone - FE8, but you play as the bad guys! [Overhaul with a new story]

Monster units, including Monica, are capped at lv. 10 while unpromoted. Once at lv. 10 (unpromoted), they will automatically promote at the start of the next map featuring the army they’re in, similar to how t0 trainees promote.

Not making any promises here, but if I were to add a new playable character to the hack, is there any among these blokes that you’d prefer? Just thinking about it, I might end up not doing anything, but I’d like to know people’s opinion.

(If you’ve any different suggestions, go ahead and send them, I’m just toying with ideas here)

Love how Cyclops is sweeping the vote so far.
Although I suppose it is very early to tell who will win.
But considering this game has playable monsters already, expanding on that will be surely neat.

I do love the singular non-Cyclops vote. Not the most helpful, but very kind. Thanks, whoever you are.

My worry with cyclops, and the reason I didn’t include them initially, is that they’re just more axemen for the pile. Still, I can work something out. I have a few ideas for each of these goobers. We’ll see if any of it comes to fruition, of course.

Yeah. I get that. Too much of one weapon type sucks. But I suppose Cyclops can use different weapons too.

What can I say, I’m a Monster Unit supporter

Hell, you could even make him one of the Underworld counts, like Medusa

There’s a few animations on the repo for different weapon types (including a teeny little bow lol) might make for a very interesting character to use something other than Axe!

You can use two head Cyclopes for variety and make him a demon count like Medusa.

I’m assuming Klaus is an FE1 manga exclusive character? It’s been ages since I read it, and I don’t remember it too well.

He even appears in Super Thracia.

Holy Shit, Klaus from the FE1 manga would be based. Even if you didn’t use his Super Thracia version you could do so much funny shit with him.

Well, unnamed Binks employee … you tried.


Guess you could cll these ambush spawns…Shock troops?


This is so great. How does she know about complex machine parts. Excellent chapter name r ference either way.

Those… aren’t ambush spawns, they’re just reinforcements. Ambush spawns are reinforcements that appear at the start of enemy phase, allowing them to move before you can react to their presence.

Thanks. But they’re actually shock troops, because they have thunder tomes. And those shock

I like the Garon option in the poll that has no votes. Someone submitted Garon then rescinded their vote. Amazing.

Well, I had a feeling it’d go this way. I do have an idea to make the cyclops a bit more interesting, and I’ll admit at this point monster completion would be nice. Even if the eyeball is still only “technically” playable. We’ll see.

Pffft… Poor guy. Klimt’s not even meant to be a strong boss!

My vanilla FE8-trained brain says “save Binks’ gang, you’ll get a Orion’s Bolt” but they are. Suicidal little guys.

It was fun to save just the one guy though.

I’m still really enjoying the hack. No notes. I’m very grateful.

I happen to have just completed that chapter myself and managed to save 2 out of 3 of Binks’ gang. I formulated a pretty elaborate strategy to accomplish this, I didn’t even realize it was necessarily possible to save all 3 and assumed they were intended to die by default. I suppose there must be a Sleep staff I missed somewhere? Otherwise I have no idea how to prevent the Myrmidon from killing at least one of them on Turn 2 without Reyson making a cameo appearance. She seems to always target them even while Berserk’d.

I also got to see this since Pablo is dead.


Forking over 5000 gold was painful, I mentally process that as 2 Short Bows now. Then I realized he comes with a Brave Bow and was satisfied with that.
