If I have time, I might do a compilation post for the benefit of our EU friends of useful things that are worth knowing before you start. Mostly, everyone playing Birthright just needs to know to A-rank Kaze before Ch. 15. The game is sufficiently shitty about this that I don't feel bad about spoiling people about it. Not knowing about it sucks hard. I didn't know about needing the a rank with Kaze. Leveled him up and then used a master seal, then it happened. I wasn't happy to say the least. Lol | ||

Though I think if we did a FE7 draft we should set some ground rules. Like are Lords okay to use? Etc. | ||

Matthew I usually use a lot, but can't for the life of me remember if he'd be that useful in a low man run. | ||

Kent/Sain firstpick just gets silly because feeding one unit the entirety of Lyn mode gets them to around lvl 17 or something, and then you give them Wallace's Knight Crest and the 2 boosters and they can basically solo the midgame. | ||

It'd be fun to witness you guys tearing each other apart for the cavaliers and other mounted units. Also would we be able to use Matthew for the purposes of lockpicking/stealing, or would we have to draft him?

With the lords and Marcus free there are 37 draftable units. Interestingly many of my go to characters have not been mentioned. I have never done a FE7 draft but I assume 4-6 people is recommended. | ||

Matthew is free for ch11, everyone is free for Lyn Mode and 13x, and Lyn/Kent/Sain/Wil are free for ch16. Rules on undrafted thieves vary, though its generally agreed that stealing promotion items is acceptable, and that stealing anything else requires you to draft the unit. Lockpicking isn't strictly necessary since you can manage keys to get all the important chests, but if people find that too annoying, I'm fine with allowing undrafted thieves to pick locks. | ||

I think I'm kind of fine with thieves being locked to the drafter, since it's a purely utility pick as you're not getting them for the promotion. Personally I'm indifferent towards member card. I'm okay with thieves being draftable as well. | ||

Its sort of a weird dance where you need to restrict enough things so that the thieves are worth picking, but not so much that they warp the draft around them. I think the default rules for them are fine but people might find managing keys to be annoying. I don't think it makes much of a difference. | ||

Could you theoretically recruit Legault and have him steal the card assuming he has enough speed? It should be possible if you pick up the sleep staff from the pirate gaiden. | ||

It's been such a long time since I've played it though so maybe there's a better way to play it than somehow tank all those valkyries. Personally, I try and let my magic users (lucius in particular) do all the work on cog. I just have serra/pent sit in the middle with restore staves | ||
