Though I can easily see the case for Niles. | ||

Edit: which makes me wonder, are those staff savant maids captureable? | ||

The biggest downside to Xander is his poor availability. This matters even more than in normal efficiency play since you aren't fielding a full team, so having a unit that joins too late in your draft makes the early game a lot harder if your draft only lets you field like 3-4 combat units for the early chapters. Staff Savant maids and Inevitable End Ninjas can be captured but they lose the skill upon being recruited. Anyway, rules: + Show Spoiler + Drafting: 1. This draft is for 4-5 players 2. Picks occur in "snake" fashion (e.g. 1-2-3-4-4-3-2-1-1-2-...) 3. Corrin, Gunter, Felicia, Jakob, and Azura are free for all 4. If applicable, the remaining units after the final round of drafting will be free for all. 5. All units are free until chapter 10 (this includes chapter 10 itself). 6. Children are drafted with their parents except for Kana, Shigure, and Dwyer. Rules: 1. Undrafted units may not be used as meatshields, build supports, or otherwise enter combat unless otherwise unavoidable. They may be used to visit villages, pick locks, talk to NPCs, and Pair Up with other undrafted units. 2. Units captured by Niles cannot be used. 3. Regardless of drafting status, you may kill Shura in Ch 16. There's typically a bunch of other rules about what you can and can't do (e.g. whether you're allowed to do Invasions, on which there's some dispute), but like I said, play the game how you want. Obviously until we actually start these are totally up for discussion/change. | ||

That's pretty interesting. I can't wait to draft because I want to see all the errors I end up making. It'll be great! Also no support building means less paralogues. This is going to be interesting. | ||

EDIT: We could do pair up allowed so long as the pair doesn't see combat while paired (since the main restriction is building supports). Since we're not racing/LTCing anyway, using undrafted units for transport chains seems fine. EDIT 2: I personally don't care, but most drafts typically ban DLC, VP/BP rewards, and the Link bonus items. My Castle stuff is unbanned because not being able to use forging or Mess Hall sucks, especially if you drafted Odin. | ||

Based on what it says you basically have to draft both fathers and mothers to build supports (outside of free units). Meaning if I don't draft Effie, I can't use her as a mother to my drafted Leo. Would this be accurate? | ||

Would you mind creating a list of all characters involved and I would like some clarification on the rules.

Its a shame rev is the disaster it is, or else it would be really fun making a draft with that many diff characters. | ||

But that a) would take too long and b) would require playing Rev again. Play it on normal, wont take too long  Honestly that seems like a cool enough concept that I would maybe be willing to play rev again....maybe.... | ||
