You don't have to one-shot the turrets, and just be sure to have an engineer or two ready to refill ammo.Snaku said:

It's both. You need to be level 11 and at a specific point in the game (don't remember where). Then the upgrades are available in R&D.XiaNaphryz said:
Just beat the game!
Thumbs up all around.
I'm actually real excited about new game +'ing it, and this time I'll use a guide while I run through. I need to complete everyone's bios. Bring on the DLC Sega!
I really loved the ending too. There was something hilarous, and yet comforting about them using Isara's plane to rescue Welkin and Alicia. Definately made me think of some cheesy 80's action flicks, but in a good way. Am I the only one that wanted "Escape from the Marmosa" to be an actual mission though? I was all super pumped when it cut scenes because I was imagining this mission where you had to outrun a wave of fire / weave your way through the burning insides and kill soldiers still left alive inside the tank on your way to the top of it.

HOW TO BEAT CHAPTER 7
Have at least one engineer with Welkin, and a sniper. The rest can be whatever I chose a lancer. The first part will mostly be Welkin doing the work.
On the South team, have Alicia, Rosie, Largo, another shock trooper or two, and another Lancer. make sure you have at least two lancers in total.
Turn One:
Move Welkin to intercept the tank. Take out the front turret, and the east turret (if possible). Go back into original position
Take Alicia, and grenade the wall just north of the second base. Alternatively, use a shocktrooper to do that as he's moving in to defend the second base.
Turn Two:
The tank should start moving, and should end up directly in front of Welkin. Take out the two north facing cannons. Use your sniper to take out the Lancer up on the cliff edge if he's already targeted Welkin. Use your engineer to heal up Welkin.
Move your scout and shock trooper into the second base.
If you can spare it, use your lancers to take out the south turret (the one in the front, if Welkin hasn't already done so).
Turn 3:
The tank will take out the first base at this point. Have Welkin take out the rear turret, and the last south facing turret (rear side). Start moving your Lancer southward.
Your scout and shocktrooper should be taking care of the on rushing troops without you needing to interfere.
Turn 4:
The tank will use his energy cannon to take out the first wall. Move your Engineer to left ladder on the tank and drop a grenade in. At this point, most of the enemy troops will have all been defeated too. Move Alicia to grenade the wall east of the 2nd base. Move your shocktrooper back to the trenches.
Turn 5:
Bombing the second radiator should be the last thing you do in this turn.
Move EVERYBODY except the sniper and your north lancer to the north side of the wall so that the hill and trenches are clear. Move Welkin to the small wall on the east and have him back up to it so the radiator is completely shielded by the standing wall.
Use a high movement character (I chose Engineer) to bomb the rear or right side radiator. After cutscene, move your engineer back into safety and huddle with the rest. make sure Alicia has enough room to move out.
Turn 6:
Brace yourself, here come the troops! By this time, Selveria should be hovering around on the south side of the wall, and a lancer should have revealed himself. Your north Lancer may have taken some decoy damage from Selveria too.
Snipe off the lancer if possible. If not, that's okay. Move Welkin to the west side of the wall everyone is cowering behind. Have him face south. He'll be blocking Selveria's progress this way, and will be your turret for the gambit. Hold position. You can use Rosie to peek outside the wall to take out oncoming troops, or use Welkin's Mortar to kill anything oncoming. It should be safe at this point to move your sniper to the remains of the 1st base, and snipe out any troops that have passed Welkin.
Turn 7:
The tank cannon should have fired at this time. Clear out any remaining troops, and then send in Alicia to board the tank and take out the last radiator.
At this point, focus your two lancers and Welkin to take that sucker out! When you run out of ammo, use your engineer to restock them up. You should be able to finish it off in this turn.

Does anyone know where one can obtain Rosie's Song (english version)? I much preferred the dub version, and as such its obviously not on the japanese OST.
Its a wonderful song, and in the game's sound-test, so am a little surprised the internet hasn't worked its usual magic.
Actually, it'd be neat if the mp3 was like an added extra when you buy the DLC, but I doubt they'll do that :/

I knew that the game would not price collapse the moment people starting complaining about not finding the game.
Of course, it was funny because people expected Valkyria to be one of the sales items on Amazon.

Pick this up the other day for £17 why didn't I get this sooner really good game
Fuck. I just failed the first level with Maximillion. I had it all set up to destroy all three radiators in a single turn...
And then I find out that the radiators close each time you destroy one. Fuck.
Also, because I killed all his forces early on in the mission, he had the maximum number of command points possible when his reinforcements arrived. Basically, he just moved all his people up in a single turn, and wiped out half my team. Then an absurdly lucky lancer hit my weakpoint.

After failing to find a copy at any of my local game retailers, I ordered Valkyria Chronicles from Amazon.ca only to see it sit on back order for 2 weeks now. If they don't receive another shipment I may be SOL. I KNEW I should have picked this game up when it was first release.

Yeah, you want to move most of your squad as far away as possible before reinforcements show up, so that they're not spotted. Just keep a few squad members hidden behind the tank, and kill the reinforcements from a sniper afar and your tank as you wait for the next radiator to come out (even if they have 20 CPs a turn).Slavik81 said:

I had all of my team retreated down to the last base by that point, save for Alicia who was waiting to take out the last radiator. Once Selvaria's forces got in range of Welkin, I launched a couple mortars into their groups and wiped them all out except for Selvaria and one lancer.
Also keep Welken's radiator up against a wall.

If you're in the way of the tank, he won't move, which is why it will take many many turns before he gets to the wall.
Also, if you don't grenade the walls to block his path, then he'll just pass right through. No use of cannon, no exposed radiators.

So my goal for tonight is to S rank the Selvaria DLC. It has been a lot better than the first DLC so far. I can't wait to get the bonus stage. I hope I can pull this off tonight. Gonna be saving mid battle a lot. lol.

Hell yeah. S rank on the first selvaria mission. I think this second one is new though.
At least I hope so. Not sure what exactly activates this other mission.

Hmmm I don't know how to unlock this other mission. There is a second version of the 2nd stage in the Selveria DLC. I have S ranks on mission one and two now but I can't even try the other one.
edit: I just looked up a wiki and figured it out. Now to actually do it.

On an unrelated note... in training you can unlock new potentials. Is this random or does it happen at specific levels?

I bought this game not too long ago ($59.99 ;P). and I played up to chapter 2 and I like what I did play. My game backlog is too much so I'll be playing it from time to time.

You're just trying to give it time to enjoy it at its fullest. I find that great actually
Chapter 17 is really cool. I'm going to enjoy this with my different strategies.
Man, does this game END?
I'm on Chapter 15... I must admit, I only play it a couple times a week... but I still have a bit longer to go. This battle with
is annoying as hell. I just want to beat this game so I can resume TLR, bahhhh
I love Valkyria, but it's getting to a point where it seems kind of overkill...

There are 18 chapters in total. Chapters 16 and 17 have 1 battle each, 18 has 2. Chp 17 is tough, but 16 and the 18 are fairly easy, especially at such a late stage in the game.

Well I finished all of the selvaria including the bonus mission. I think I am gonna start my second run through the game. Do I just load up my clear data?
Any general tips for chapter 14?
I am constantly get overwhelmbed by the snipers that spawn in the bottom of the map. I am able to take out the bottom dominus tank in the 1st turn it spawns. But I just get slowly taken out by the constantly respawning enemies without doing major damage to the other tank.

The tanks don't spawn until your capture the base. If you want to do it the easy way, just send a Lancer or Tank (Shamrock being the better choice, as it has more AP) to each of the spawn points first. Then capture the base, and you can easily destroy the tanks as soon as they spawn. It's a cheesy tactic, but highly effective.
