I finally beat Chapter 2 after an hour of retries and spending extended time on making decisions. grahh..
I have a feeling I'll have a lot more fun with this game on hard mode, even if it will go out of it's way to fuck me over several times
And thanks for the Donnel advice guys. Sounds like he'll be a bitch to make useful, but it will be all worth it.
My favorite strategy to use with him so far is to attack the boss of a chapter once, which makes the boss lose a ton of health, then get one of my weaker units to finish him off so they get the massive EXP gain.

Yarne's Paralogue Chapter Decision's
Assist the red army?
"No"
Assist the green army?
"No"
Fight them both?
"Yes"
Are you sure?
"...Yes?"
*20 extra promoted enemies appear. Making the total: 46 opponents vs my measly 13.
:/
Completely expected this to happen but I'm still not happy about it.

By the time I did this chapter, I had some strong units. My Panne as an assassin killed a third of them in one turn
. Beautiful EXPI just played the first paralogue that showcased this, and I was amazed watching the 3 villagers move towards a hill full of enemies instead of defending their village on the other side of the map. It was hilarious.
Speaking about that, is there a point when you can buy second seals?

I just cant be bothered most of the time. I let all of them in Owain's mission die.
I love this chapter. Tore right through both armies with my swordmasters.
Plus its worth it just for Chrom's "wtf are you trying to do man" reaction

It was really frustrating because fucking everything one shots them.
Speakng of villager NPCs, what do you get from Gerome's paralogue? Fuck saving all of them though how the hell is it even possible. Honestly, I'm not sure if I'm glad or not that they don't move at all.
Chapter 16

I thought the Fire Emblem code was to always not use pre-promoted units whenever possible anyway?

Chapter 16 in the main story, Paralogues 6, 10 and 16. All those paralogues are pretty high level though...
The location. They're always a few levels above the original enemies of the story chapter where they appear for a challenge battle. So, you'll get the weakest Risen by using one in South Town.

I tried this on Lunatic when this Paralogue first opened up. When that happened, I just cracked up.
I lost and eventually had to come back to it as well as team up with the red army.

After Chapter 16.
No.
Some are good pre-promoted units, some are bad.
Marcus (FE6) is terrible but Seth (FE8) is good.
He's a great wall for the early chapters, he saved a lot of my units so far. I can't wait until DLC unlocks in my file so I can level up units and won't have to use Frederick anymore...
Well what I mean is, I don't even use him as a last resort, or to whittle down enemy HP. He makes things too easy most of the time.

Lucina is god tier. Aether all day long.
Speaking of Lucina, her supports with Cynthia are fantastic. So much humor, warmth, and character. Very well-written.

It's more to not overuse them. They are good when you need a meat shield, to weaken a boss or an enemy or just need to finish off something that someone didn't kill off. But don't just give them all the kills just cause it is easy to since you'll be hurting the growth of the rest of your party.
And this only really holds true to the starting pre-promoted. The ones that come later in the game generally are able to hold their own.
Cynthia is so freaking cute in her supports with Lucina. I just got finished reading Nah's B support and Yarne's A support with Cynthia and I just love her hero complex.
And this game is so good all the employees at the local Gamestop I preordered MGR from is talking about Fire Emblem Awakening and loving it.

My Morgan is either using aether, ignis or vengeance every turn, most of the time two at once
Its pretty ridiculous. The blood of the next exalt and Tactician runs strong in her
Yeah
This guy was pretty awesome from what I can remember.
He made training your early mage worthless
Should I keep Morgan a Grandmaster or should I make her yet another Grand Lord?

Now I'm sad Pent isn't a SpotPass character.

If it was Paralogue 2 you don't get her then.
Is Kent? I like Kent better anyway.
Yeah it was frustrating at first, but I figured they'll never learn so I just let them be and laugh at them.
Sadly, the girl died as well. I wanted to recruit her if possible.

He's referenced to as a nameless Paladin in Lyn's SpotPass team.
Nameless? Better than nothing.

She cant be a lord. I just kept her as a grandmaster since she wants to take after dad so much.
My Lucina and Cynthia (who are sisters in my game) are freaking amazing. Aether and Galeforce = lolwat. Lucina has 4 stats maxed out, and Cynthia is on the way there.
Some of my guys are screwed though, like Owain and Kjelle, both had terrible stats when I got them, probably because their parents sucked.

Does it matter if she dies in Paralogue 2, or she still be recruitable regardless?

I had the same set-up. Lucina and Cynthia were one team; Severa and Morgan (who maxed everything but luck) were another. Nothing could stand in their way.

Ah okay. See I remember reading something back in the day when I was just started off this series that pre-promoted characters generally have bad stats and level slowly, so as time goes on they are just significantly weaker.
In Awakening I stopped using Fred as soon as I had enough units, and did not touch Anna or Libra at all. Oh well, live and learn. Plan to do a Lunatic run through soon anyway.
Cynthia was somehow my 3rd best unit in my 2nd playthrough :x.
Don't think so. Just make sure she doesn't die in a later Paralogue.
She can't? But Lucina is her mother. That class wouldn't carry over?
Male Morgan sux.
Can't be that bad now no? Do their dialog drastically differs?
Wish I knew that beforehand, I wasted about an hour resetting because of her!
Female Morgan is adorable and I love her.

Pretty sure that's a class that doesn't carry over.

Uggh last 3 enemies on the last paralogue and Panne dies on a 51% hit chance that did exactly her whole life bar -_-
