Should I be leveling up Ricken? Is he a mage equivalent to Donnel or something?

Got Cherche today and decided to see what were the skills of the Wyvern class. Ended up disappointed because they all seem so underwhelming and not worth the effort :/
Guess I'll just change her into a Cleric->War Cleric, so she can get Renewal.

I always lean towards chicken riders for some reason.
Does the game keep track of completed S-ranks even before the game is complete? Or do I need to unlock the viewer first before going back and looking at all the support conversations?
Also, is there a point where you can't get the children characters anymore? I almost want to get the viewer first before worrying about all the possibilities when it comes to the children supports...
Are there any that you would recommend? Should Lissa and Mirabel stay as healers? Seems like I should go for some fighting skills for the two Lords though.
Cheers.
On a first playthrough? That I don't know about actually. I'd assume that it would regardless. Children characters can be gotten whenever, even after you beat the game (since it sends you back). As mentioned before, Lissa and Maribelle should go for Dark Fliers to get the Galeforce skill, especially since their sons have no way of getting it.
Lissa has -2 STR, -1 SKL, +0 SPD, and +2 Luck as far as relevant stats are concerned (-1 DEF, +1 RES if you care on that front, I guess). Vaike is probably the best choice but I guess he's taken already for your file, eh?
Those units have:
Frederick - +2 STR, +2 SKL, -2 SPD, +0 Luck.
Gregor - +2 STR, +2 SKL, +0 SPD, -1 Luck.
Virion - +0 STR, +2 SKL, +2 SPD, -1 Luck.
And I'm skipping the Mages because :lol. Avatar would be based off your Asset/Flaw choice.
Honestly, pick who you like, these differences here are pretty minor. Like 1 or 2 points to a stat cap sort of thing and you're having to deal with Lissa already kind of giving bad stat caps anyway ;_;
Edit: Hopefully this doesn't get lost (lol that super late edit~) but Gregor gets Mercenary/Hero passed down to Owain so something to keep in mind for class options. Virion will net you Dark Knight as an option for Lifetaker as well.
Compared to Miriel, he trades off MAG, SKL, SPD growths for HP and Luck. But, no, not quite a Donnel situation :x

Barring reclassing and then promotion, he's about your only archer for quite a while. He won't be missed.
There is one other archer, but she joins later in the game. And you'll have to get Tharja hitched with someone.
I've no great love for Virion, but he's the only Archer available until much later in the game unless you're willing to reclass someone like MU, or Ricken early on. On my second playthrough, I found the multiple units able to use wind magic (early on at least) outweighed any need for archers.
Are the kid's supports with their non-fixed parent just always the same no matter who the parent is? It seemed like the one my Morgan had with Cordelia was quite generic. And I can't imagine adding unique text for every possible combo.
That's fine really, there is already plenty of text in here.

thanks Ill have to just do that then, tons of mages but no archers. I didnt really like the character but damn, i like archers....
All of them are activated.
On that note, Rally skills break the stat cap since they're temporary bonuses.
My fondness of Archers is the entire reason I settled on my Avatar pairing.

The answer is the one she punches in the face.
... At least during THIS playthrough :3
I just realized that in my haste to start a new file after I realized running lunatic as my first playthrough was a bad idea, I neglected to set the birthday of my avatar.
When you "carry over" your avatar from a complete save file do you still have the ability to modify it?
Am I going to suffer for not having my real birthday? ;_;

A Rescue Staff is your friend.
This is after I rescue them. -_- I can't push up the map far enough and they flank even though I hold the choke with Fred+Kellam.
But hey, if you did it on Lunatic w/o losing them then I'll rethink my positioning.

It's so weird that her choices in husbands are so limited compared to other people.
Isn't the first Rescue Staff from Paralogue 1?

Wish they'd pimp more copies of the god damned game. I'd love to play.

Question about the kids' base stats: are they reflective of the mothers/fathers' stats at the time of marriage? For example, is it even worth it for me to marry off Miriel, Maribelle, and Olivia since I haven't ever used them in battle since I got them, and they'd likely be marrying people I also never used in battle?
The formula is:
[Child's Base Stats + (Mother's Current Stats - Mother's Base Stats) + (Father's Current Stats - Father's Base Stats)] /3 + Child's Class Base Stats
Just treat them as free bonus stats. This won't influence their growth rates or stat caps.

I... don't think you're using that word properly...
I think consensus is the word you want
But in any case, 2 RNs has been the norm starting with the GBA era.

Alright, I might regret asking this, but what are everyone's favorite pairings?
So far I'd say Chrom x Sumia, Ricken x Maribelle and Stahl x Coredelia are natural. Even Virion x Sully fits in a funny way. I'm going to check out Panne x Gregor and Henry x Nowi based on what I've been reading her. No idea who is a good fit for Miriel besides Frederick who I don't use.

just completed it, actually: donny & tharja! so friggin' perfect for each other
...my other couples:
chrom & robin (completely unplanned, but playing the game as a bad-ass mother (literally!) is pretty cool)
virion & miriel (the height of sophistication
)...if you're at all familiar with srpgs, normal/permadeath is not all that hard...
If someone has a proper face in a mission, instead of just generic grunt faces, chances are they can be a part of your team.
