In FE9, Haar comes rather late, but is still a decent RNG proof unit if you want to use him. Jill in FE9 is one of the best characters in the game, and at one point in time, was considered the best.
In FE10 Haar is either one of the best, or THE best. Personally I think Haar is THE best unit in normal mode, but in Hard Mode hes still among the best. Jill is still very good in FE10, she just isn't around as much as Haar, and when you get her, she isn't as godly as Haar comes when you get him. Oh yeah, in FE10, Wyverns aren't weak vs Bows. LOL.
...it looks like FE9 and FE10 has specially decided to make Wyvern Riders even more imba for Wyvern Rider lovers and abusers like me. I think I know who's going to be my new favorite character when I get around to playing FE9 and FE10.
And RNG-screwed story time? I'm still playing through normal mode on FE8, and Ross failed to hit a knight with a 97% hit chance... My face: :|
I know just how you feel I've always been a Wyvern Fanboy.
FE4, my favorite unit was Altenna, and I was disappointed there was no Gen 1 Wyvern (although Trabant was a huge badass). FE6, Miledy was always my best unit. I remember wasting so much time in old FE debates, arguing Miledy vs the likes of Alan, Percival, etc. FE7 kinda didn't have good Wyverns. Heath is pretty much Nino on a dragon, and I don't like units like that. Although I remember I did a long debate arguing on behalf of Heath too, in the ancient past. FE8 was Cormag, too good. FE9, Jill/Haar, too good. Esepcially Jill. FE10, Haar, LOL. Jill too. Chapter 1 and 4 (and end of 3), my Jill was an absolute monster. Chapter 2/3/4, my Haar just lol'd at entire maps. Nothing could touch him.
In FE10, even though Bows no longer have bonus damage vs Wyverns, they replaced it with Thunder Mages getting bonus vs them, but really, all that means is when the missions start, I check the map for Thunder Mages, and rape accordingly.
Hellz yeah Wyvern Riders! Nothing can kill them and I love seeing them tear through entire battlefields without breaking a sweat. :D Miledy and Zeiss were ridiculous in FE6; I'd just park them near armies and watch them destroy everything in sight. Oh that delicious A support of theirs. I thought Heath was a wimp in FE7; my Fiona could school him lol, but he was still quite useful. All this reverence for Haar makes me want to ditch FE8 as soon as I finish it and start playing FE9 ASAP. *Hype*

LOL an Eliwood with 27 Res?! Your Eliwood was fit to be a mage lmfao.
Did you ever do the Sacae Route in FE6, give Miledy the Delphi Shield, and send her out alone in that one battle with like a million Nomads?
Omfg no. I should go try that out sometime though. Nomad genocideee

It's okay man, I kind of feel like a scrub too lol.
You know, why hasn't anyone brought up THE topic that's almost always in every single Fire Emblem forum out there. You know what it is.
Cutest Fire Emblem character. Post your opinions gogo.
Now I haven't gotten to playing all the games yet, but I think that Amelia in FE8 is adorable, and then you've got Fir, Rebecca, and Nino...
Wait a fucking minute. You mean giving one of the cavaliers who get all of the weapon tree every upgrade in the game and all the exp then letting them solo maps isn't optimal? Wtf. And here I thought I was a great tactician...

Also, since you guys are talking about RNG screwage, I though that I'd rub in the fact that its impossible for Miledy in FE6 Hard Mode to get RNG screwed. This is Miledy when you first get her. She is a level 10 Wyvern Rider. Yes, Tier 1. Unrpromoted. Her base stats are better than some 20/20 stats of people in FE7.
Before promotion, my 19/0 Miledy:
So, later in that playthrough, here is what my Miledy looked like as a level 20/6 Wyvern Lord: lolololololol Miledy too good.
Of course, FE6 has really crazy enemies as well. For example, in Sacae, there is a Swordmaster Boss called Gel. This guy is crazy, and there is still a decent chunk of the game remaining. I wonder how my Miledy would do against this guy...
lol
FE6 was crazy though. Chapter 21 IIRC was real fun. You get to fight Bern's main army. Here are screen shots from various parts of the mission: Thats alot of Wyverns. I wonder what their stats were... For generic enemies, these dudes are tough >_> Oh yeah, the Wyvern Lords had Silver Lances IIRC. Fun.
Finally, completely unreleated to FE6. Alvis in FE4 was crazy: Imagine fighting that guy when hes sitting on a Castle. Real fun.
You know who is truly and utterly RNG-proof in FE6: Karel
Not that he's particularly useful given how late you get him, but it was awesome seeing +2s regularly when someone actually leveled up (for the few levels that he actually had).

Oh, wait. You meant female character. The ones you listed are up there... honestly, every younger FE female qualifies as "cute" with the exception of Dorothy (poor Dorothy, I never even used her either :/).
i really enjoyed FE9 and 10 for the reason that you finally get a soldier class to play with. I think it was Stephanie and someone else. Stephanie was easily one of my favourite characters to use. The only thing I didn't like about 9 and 10 was that they removed Dark magic. Edit: does anyone have an emulator link for FE6?

Nephenee, not Stephanie in 9 and 10, and Aran in 10 only.
You do get Dark magic in 10, you just need to complete the game once before.

Ok everybody, since this thread has received so many views, I would like to edit the OP into a much better one, but I don't really know where to start?
I'm actually not sure if it's okay to link to ROMs on TL - my intuition tells me that it isn't, so it's best to PM a mod to be sure. Most well-known websites ban the linking of ROMs for obvious reasons.
The Fire Emblem with Roy is like THE hardest Fire Emblem I've played I've actually never finished it I think I got to the part where you choose which route you want to go on like with the Nomads and W/e. I wish they would make more Fire Emblems for the gameboy I think its the perfect handheld game! Lots of content and really in depth story even though the story is usually the same in each game. The unique character personalities so good though.
Oh man I love the Fire Emblem series. Thracia 776 is my favourite, but sadly it is the only one I don't have my own copy of since they go on ebay for up to $300! I didn't care for FE10 too much or the newer DS remake of FE1, I think Intelligent Systems should take a breather and look back on why all their other FEs were so amazing.
Anyone ever play Advance Wars? I think I enjoy that series just as much.
Question, are berserkers/pirates/fighters as bad as I think they are? I have never used one and I refuse to, mostly because Dorcas absolutely screwed me over one time. FUCK dorcas

I think i like advanve wars even more, but it's hard to really compare the two.
Berserkers are so sick Dart in FE7 was so good for an axe wielder (other than hector of course) but using the ocean seal kinda hurt on your funding rank Since they have hight con and wield axes it's like a swordmaster but with alot more of strenght. Fighters are meh but their crit animation with axe is so funny

Depends on the Pirate/Fighter, and game. In FE7, Dorcas and Bartre aren't good, but Hawkeye and HM Geitz are pretty good. Dart turns out good, hes sort of like Nino with an axe IIRC lol. In FE6, HM Gonzales is an absolute beast. I don't remember how good Geese is. Bartre still sucks in FE6, poor guy. In FE8, everyone is good. FE9, Boyd is good. I don't remember how Largo is. FE10 there are so many OP units, IDK.
Rolf sucks unless its FE10, and they get Crossbows in that game. FE9, hes an archer, and all archers who don't have a FE4 Legendary Weapons suck, no exceptions.
