Class Explanation
Fire Emblem Engage Archer Archer You'll want to have units that can easily defeat Fliers. Both Hortensia and Zephia are flier units and Hortensia have two revival stones to boot.
Fire Emblem Engage Lance Armor Lance Armor You'll want to have several high defense units for this stage as there will be several ambushes. Having units that can stall or take their hits head on is ideal.

Chapter 14 Battle Walkthrough

Objective
1 Spread out your unit to two sides
A Thief will twice on a side each (right on turn 1 and left on turn 2). Spreading your units thin is essential if you want to obtain all chests in this stage.
2 Make sure to push through to the edge of the first floor on both sides
Both Thieves will spawn in this area so slow down and eliminate them first before moving forward.
3 Slowly push through until both team clear the enemies on their side until the treasure room.
We want to have all units prepared on the treasure room as there will be an ambush upon breaking the door.
4 Defeat the 4 soldiers that spawns after breaking the door
5 Unite your members near the central area then prepare to enter the boss room.
6 Lure Zephia out of the room
Avoid diving headlong into the boss room. This will allow us to remove Zephia, the only magic damage threat on the room.
7 Once all Zephia is lured out of the room and defeated. Have your armored units stay outside to intercept the enemy Fliers
8 Have the rest of your team push in and defeat Hortensia!
Hortensia is a Spear user and a Flier so having an axe unit break her stance as well as having archers attack her from a distance is recommended..

Archer can kill Hortensia with Astra Storm from Alear's starting position. On hard, with silver bow +0. Then the reinforcements will be very far away from the bosses when you fight them.
