Alear and Céline Strategy

Use a Hit and Run strategy!

This map has no reinforcements, making a Hit and Run strategy viable. It also helps that most of the enemies are grouped together, allowing Galeforce users to immediately go on the offensive after their first actions.

The enemies will not move until you either attack a foe or end turn inside their threat range. You can use the first few turns to position your units for the perfect engage.

When engaging using a melee unit, keep in mind that the Lance Knight has D/R Near Save 3. Your melee units will need to take him down before you can safely attack the other foes.

The units on this map also have warping skills that can make positioning tricky. Alear (F) has the 【Charge】 status from Libération, Céline has warping from both Wings of Mercy 4 and Atk/Spd Oath 4, and the Lance Flier has both Aerobatics 3 and Guidance 4. Remember these skills when positioning your units!

Alternatively, use a tanking strategy!

The enemies here can be defeated with a tanking strategy easily, as none of them are too threatening except for Alear (F). Both her and Céline have their Specials pre-charged, requiring your tank unit to be able to withstand both of these in one phase.

The advantage of a tanking strategy in this map is isolating one group of enemies from the other and neutralizing the effectiveness of the Lance Knight. When positioning your units to begin, choose either the left side or the right side, and only bait the enemies on that side. Keep your tank unit healthy each turn through healing skills to safely defeat the map.

Céline's Joyous Tome will sustain her nearby allies through engagements, making her the priority unit to defeat if you cannot defeat the enemies in one combat.

Choose a side to bait the enemy units on, and place your tank unit in range of the enemy units. Place the support allies near the tank unit but out of range of the enemies, and allow the enemies to approach.
