Province of Famine Recommended Units

Recommended Unit Leaders
Auch	Rolf	Clive	Josef

Before doing this quest, make sure that you are able to hire a Hunter Mercenary as they are the most effective in this battle. You can hire mercenaries by accessing any Forts that you own, each fort will have different mercenaries for hire.

In Province of Famine, deploying a total of 4 units is enough to finish the quest succesfully. You will be joined by Adel and Fran's Team as well as some Cavalry teams in this quest. We recommend the Unit Leaders listed above. Click on the leader's name to see our recommended Unit Formation for that leader in this stage.

How to Recruit Mercenaries

Auch's Unit

Auch's Unit
Yahna (Witch)	-	Auch (Wizard)
-	Alain (Lord)	-

Auch's unit will mostly be responsible for Magickal Assists throughout the stage, so having them near any Cavalry's radius is ideal.

You can also have Auch's unit defeat wandering Hunter units as this team is strong against them.

Recruiting Auch

Auch is a recruitable character and will join the Liberation after successfully finishing the The Self-Effacing Sorcerer side quest should you choose to spare him.

Recruiting Auch before starting this quest is recommended as there will be Hunters in this battle.

The Self-Effacing Sorcerer Walkthrough

Rolf's Unit

Rolf's Unit
Rolf (Hunter)	-	Any Hunter Mercenary
-	Hodrick (Hoplite)	-

Rolf's unit is the Anti-Gryphon Knights team. The team will also be utilized for Ranged Assists so make sure that this team and Auch's are closely following the Cavalry units.

Hunters are typically weak to any attacks so having Hodrick being the defender in the frontline is optimal.

Josef's Unit

Josef's Unit
Josef (Paladin)	-	Chloe (Soldier)
-	Mordon (Warrior)	-

Josef's unit, along with Clive, Adel, and Fran's will be leading the core team due to their quick mobility.

Josef's Unit has pure offense and is very strong against enemy Cavalries. It is best to have this unit be a palette switch for any Cavalry units nearby to conserve stamina.

Clive's Unit

Clive's Unit
Sharon (Cleric)	-	Clive (Knight)
-	Lex (Fighter)	-

This team is a balanced unit able to battle Cavalries and Housecarls with Sharon's Heal on stand by. The best strategy for this team is to be tailed by both Auch's and Rolf's team for maximum damage.

Having Clive as the team leader will enable conversations between the enemy and him. Early on in this stage, you can recruit a team of Cavalry Knights by choosing to talk to a nearby Cavalry enemy unit.

Province of Famine Walkthrough

#	Step by Step Guide
1	Deploy and Talk First things first is to deploy Rolf, Clive, and Auch's units. You can reserve Josef's unit for now, he will be able to catch up quickly later. Adel and Fran will aid the party in this stage and will be controllable. Once the three units are deployed, have Adel or Clive's unit talk to the nearby Cavalry unit to gain their forces. This will provide you with four additional Cavalry units.
2	Garrison in Nearby Areas Set your next destination to the nearby garrisonable areas. By the time you arrive here, your recently acquired Cavalry units will have defeated the enemy units garrisoned in Facon Town. Garrison in Facon Town and an NPC will provide you with a Holy Herb, have another unit garrison in the Poutiselle Ruins and receive a Dew of Protection.
3	Garrison in Fort Gromond On the other side of the map, have Fran's Unit defeat nearby enemy units. Fran's unit is actually the best unit to use in this stage so keep this in mind. Once everything is clear, garrison her to Fort Gormond to gain Valor Points. There is a treasure on the ground near the fort, let this be her next destination to pick up a Farsight Crystal
4	Deploy Josef's Unit and Follow the Core Team Once enough Valor Points have been acquired, you can now deploy Josef's Unit and have him follow the core team near the effigy. At the same time, you can have Fran's team garrison in Utur Sabal Ruins to get a Dew of Warding.
5	Defeat Enemies on the Way Back to the core team, you will be facing a lot of enemies from here on out. Make sure that all of your units are within each other's radius to fully utilize Rolf's Ranged Assist and Auch's Magickal Assist leader effects. You can use Josef's team, if he had been able to follow you, or Adel's team to battle. Using these two will make you utilize both assists at the same time.
6	Check Out the Effigy In their path, the core team will encounter a Water Effigy that will heal all nearby units, you can have a nearby unit to pray in here. In the meantime, have Josef's unit garrison in Deucrin Ruins to get War Funds 5000G. There will be a treasure beside it, have Josef get here next to collect Healing Font(S).
7	Regroup With Fran Fran cannot advance from here on out because there are Hunter enemy units down south, regrouping will be her best chance at survival. Once regrouped, have Fran collect the treasure in the forest to get Camping Set (S)
8	Talk to the Enemy You can have Clive or Adel talk to the reinforcements from the enemy unit but either way, the enemy will choose not to ally with you so prepare for battle. Have any allied units with assisting leader effects ready as well. In the meantime, have Fran defeat the enemy unit guarding the Divine Effigy: Thunder and avoid Hunter enemy units.
9	Charge Through Nordplage Town Get all your units set on Nordplage Town and Have Fran pray in the effigy to summon Divine Thunder upon the town. After this, let her continue on picking out the enemy units one by one and regroup with her later. Once garrisoned in Nordplage Town, an NPC will provide you with a Defensive Draught
10	Defeat Gaston After Nordplage Town, the final destination will be the enemy Command Post. The path will most likely have been cleared by Fran's unit by now, making Gaston open for attacks. Since Fran's unit is the nearest and the most effective in fighting Gaston, utilize her and defeat Gaston. If upon unsuccesful victory in one battle, feel free to use any Valor Skills to your advantage. You will acquire Baroque Shield upon successful victory.
