Isn't that the only way?

Would really like to know more about unit promotion guys.
To change class? It's a seal you buy.
Edit: So I really fucked up, and I mean REALLY fucked up. There's no way to beat the game with just Chrom and my main main character. Well if it's just killing people yeah, but I'm trying to keep someone alive and they'll ignore me and circle around me to kill the weaker unit I'm trying to protect. What's my option right now? Should I buy the DLC and get new units? There's no way I can restart the game, not after how far I've gotten and I only keep one save file at all times so I'm not tempted to keep restarting after someone dies.

So does everybody get a second ability and that's it?
So far only lissa has two abilities.
Oh right, I remember that.
I've only seen it on those merchants that pop out after you've finished a chapter. I think they're called secret shop or something like that.
The base classes get their abilities at level 1 and 10.
Promoted classes get them at level 5 and 15.
You get them from chests/some thieves drop them. You can buy a master seal from the level 13 store, and second from around chapter 16-18 store, they're unlocked earlier if you do some of the kids paralogues.

My current playthrough is all about eugenics.
2 skills per class. Base classes get them at level 1 and 10, promoted classes at 5 and 15, and special classes at 1 and 15.
haha yes, this is always the worst kind of irony
also sometimes happens with a low% dual strike
It's a reason why snipers are kinda useful (although you could just use an assassin with bow equipped instead).
I already play Pokémon that way, and selectively breeding people with personalities somehow feels wrong.

A myrmidon got a bloody critical on poor Lissa when I forgot to protect her, good job she survived the blow. Whew!

Oh come on. How am I supposed to kill that thief in chapter 11 if it means that every single unit, including the boss, will rush at me?!
Said boss is very dangerous too. Not that durable, but with a speed of 24, I'm rightfully worried.
There is one good thing about this map: the battle theme is awesome.

Restart on normal/classic (or whatever the Euro land version of is called) or hard/casual. You're missing alot of sidechapters since you let everybody die. And the dlc characters have zero personality; you'd be missing a ton.
That'd be 8 hours down the drain though, I'm not sure I can do that
8 hours isn't that much truth be told. People have put in over 100 easily on the Amercian versions, some have put over 200.
Both my playthroughs were combinations of both.
I prioritized getting galeforce on a decent number of second gen characters (which obviously made me incredibly overleveled for midgame). First game was a pure brute force melee army, second game is going to be pretty much as many sorcerors as possible in the second gen.

I'll be honest here: It sounds like you really screwed the pooch. If you don't have at least enough characters alive for a full party (say, 10ish), you probably need to restart just to make beating the game feasible.
Even the DLC/spotpass/streetpass characters won't make up for it as they can't support and hence have much weaker dual pairings.
From the base class of Lord and Tactician respectively? No, those classes only learn skills at level 10.
You're alright.
I don't think any class learns any skill at LV 20.

No. No class gets a skill later than 15 in first job. Even then, I think it's only dancers and villagers (Donnel) who get something at 15, everyone else gets a skill at 1 and 10 in first tier.
Edit: Manaketes and Taguels get a skill at 15 as well.
Regardless, you could always use a second seal to turn them back into their first tier job if you did miss something.
Nah, you're fine, you just wasted a little experience but there's only two skills per class ever. Nonpromoted is 1-10, promoted is 1-15

Right before the final chapter now!
I couldn't resist pairing Donnel with Nowi and now I have an unstoppable Nah with Aptitide : )

But she's better with Underdog!
Just realized what I've been doing with Kellam and it amuses me. I've been pairing him up with people that needed that +4 Def, but I haven't actually have him fight much. He's basically become a shadow. Which, somehow, feels both appropriate and kind of wrong.
What level can you do Champions of Yore 1 at? I just finished chapter 7, and most of my active units are levels 6-12. Stupid... me. Stop hogging EXP.

I think you'd be ok, that first Champions map is pretty low level.

Awesome, it's great to see more people on board!
On a related note, I was in my local GAME store yesterday and some poor chap wanted to buy the game, only to be told it's totally out of stock.
Neither ASDA nor Tesco had it when I visited today. They didn't have Luigi's Mansion 2 either which is a little concerning.
They don't seem to be stocking anywhere near the amount of 3DS games as they used to.
It would appear so. Pretty shitty move to be honest.
Didn't see this question answered, but the stuff that you get in the DLC does stay with you, if that's what you mean.
Crap.

Oh god pink bubbles everywhere.
Alright, chrom X femMC. First pairing. Now where's the quest to make babies?

Well, I'm on Chapter 13 and I guess it's time to start setting up marriages. I really only focused on certain relationships that gave me a lot of support bonuses in-game, and most of them were male-male. I'm slightly disappointed that I didn't realize it in time for
but it can't really be helped now. Now... who to pair...
Chrom's marriage

Oh my... that's didn't have to end like that O_O... but it was pretty funny, and true.
I'm too ashamed to post mine...

Don't be shy.
Virtue's Last Reward at 1:57. Which is understandable given the type of game it is. I finished it with 37:16 on my log and it will probably stay like that forever.Which is your #1 average playtime?
I feel the same way...
