Julius: Scion of Darkness Strategy

Reinforcements Abound!

There are reinforcements on this map and they appear whenever a specific enemy is defeated.

Be careful when they appear and try to move your units around to prevent being swarmed.

Hit and Run Strats Are Recommended

The enemy units will move at the start of their first enemy phase and paired with the amount of reinforcements on the map, hit and run strats are recommended.

This allows your units to attack and retreat to safety.

You can use units with Canto or use dancers.

Tanks Are Also An Option

Alternatively, you can use tanky units to frontline for your more vulnerable units.

This is especially effective if you have armored units with A/R Far Save 3 since there are several ranged units on the map.
