Infinite Reinforcements

Enemies will spawn infinitely at the side of Ladislava's army. There are no actions that can be used to stop the enemy from spawning.

Capturing Strongholds

There is a stronghold in the middle of the battlefield. Enemies that are surrounding it must be defeated to stop the enemy from that area to spawn.

Patrolling Demon Beasts

The Demon Beasts will stay idle in the battle unless provoked.

Enemy Ambushes

Enlarge

Enlarge

Lorenz and Acheron's ambush.

Two ambushes will occur. First is when your units approach the stronghold where 2 cavalries, 3 heavy armored units, and Acheron will appear. The Second ambush will happen when your units approach the Imperial General on the northwest part of the battlefield.

Chapter 16 (Church) - Tips and Tricks

Prioritize Generals

The number of enemies you need to defeat is too much for your 9 units to handle. Focus on completing the objective of the battle to have an easier time.

Lure Enemies

Enemies will come in droves if your units aren't placed properly. Do not march blindly and observe which units will approach your deployed characters.

Use the Bridge

There is a bridge on the northwestern side of the battlefield. This leads to some generals like the Imperial General, Lorenz (who will ambush you once your units approach the general) and Ladislava.

Abuse Ladislava's Low Hit Rate

Enlarge

Ladislava attacking with a 16% hit rate.

Ladislava's hits pack a punch. No unit can realistically handle this damage (unless they are a heavily armored unit or an over levelled one). Lure Ladislava with a unit that has high evasion like a Sword Master to avoid losing a unit.
