    Gah. Chapter 18 was a cake-walk (the one in the volcano) I've already been delaying some class promotions and have been trying to incorporate some of the lower level characters but my party is just too OP. Maybe it's all the pairing up. I love this mechanic, but it does feel like cheating at times. I'll definitely need to replay this on hard mode at some point.

    You are not on hard mode?  Oh boy get ready for a rise in difficulty.

    Ok, started hard mode. Honestly, I've got previous experience with Fire Emblem, but this is just getting ridiculous. Why can't I take more than a single hit at most form a goddamn risen? Anyone have some tips? I seriously doubt I'll ever get to lunatic.

    Yeah it is annoying but you pretty much have to have them come to you then you attack them set to kill.  In Lunatic you WILL die from a single unit since everyone is fast and attacks twice.

    You try to go more defensive?

    Hmm. I played on hard/classic and I noticed that everytime I had to choose between an offensive or a defensive strategy, offence worked out better.

    I DID IT! I FINALLY FOUND A COPY! THIS 2 WEEK ORDEAL IS FINALLY OVER!!

    And it was the last copy available in a 5 mile radius. Poor guy behind me left the store disappointed. My prayers goes to those still trying to find the game. Good luck!

    Lucky! Still none in sight here in Calgary; sucks considering we have a week off from school this week.

    Was there actually some guy behind you trying to get it? I would've been so depressed and completely outraged at the same time if that was me.

    If I didn't run to the store, I would have been the one depressed and outraged. He entered around 2 minutes after I did.

    Good luck finding a copy! The search is intense. May Arceus be with you.

    The worst part is that the game was supposedly being sold early by some EB Games in Canada. Argh! I should've grabbed one while I had the chance.

    I got mine launch day at Marlbrough. If I didn't have a preorder I wouldn't have got it. Good luck on your search.

    It's 3am and I have to wake up in 3 hours, but I'm too absorbed into this game to care about sleep.

    Yeah, hard/classic is whooping me pretty good. I keep letting my guard down near the end of battle and forgetting to put Lissa out of harms way and having to redo the whole level. I kind of wish it was setup like Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars where you could chose difficulty for each battle... but then it would no longer be Fire Emblem. Probably, I should just admit I suck and restart on normal. I've put like eight or ten hours into it according to my 3DS log but only have like three hours on my save since I have to figure out each level though trial and error.

    The newly released "EXPonential growth" map is honestly, gamebreaking. I need to limit myself...

    Finally got my hands on a physical copy! My GameStop only got 3 in and I got the last copy. Looks like Black 2 will be retired for a while.
