The Defense of the Great Bridge Walkthrough

Objectives
1
Once the battle begins, pair off characters and send them in at least 4 teams around the map. Aim to take over each stronghold in the area! This should be much easier with the Stronghold Sabotage Strategy
Assign Shez or the character you plan to play near the center.
2 Because you will need to get to Count Gloucester quickly, once you have taken at least one fort, send over the closest ally to guard him.
For the units sent to the north, leave at lease one near your original stronghold for the upcoming sidequest.
3
Once you have protected the Count, Acheron will betray you and switch sides. This means that the central stronghold is now under enemy control.
4 You'll need to defeat the Acheron and his minions. Send one to two allies towards your original stronghold and keep one near you to deal with the Acheron.
5
You will need to keep allies spread out as you will need to protect the Alliance Soldiers who are retreating. Since there are about 4 groups, have 3 of the groups guard the 3 Alliance Soldiers.
If you used the Call In Guards Strategy, you can summon them at this point to help protect the Soldiers while you focus on other things.
6
To achieve S-rank you'll need to take out as many soldiers as you can, so while your party is leading the soldiers away, head to the south east and fight groups until you find Caspar.
You won't be able to beat him just yet, Linhardt will rescue him before he can get injured further.
7 Snag the Key Fire Emblem Three Hopes
Optional: Head further back and take the Key to the chest from the enemy! You will get a chance to use it much later on.
8
Once the soldiers are safe, send one ally to Linhardt. He will open the gates to the final section of the map.
If you chose the strategy to recruit Linhardt, initiate your strategy and your goal will be to defeat and recruit him.
9
Optional: Leave your other two allies near the original stronghold to defend it against Fighters.
10
Fight Linhardt with all you've got! We recommend saving some of your abilities to make it quick!
11
Optional: After defeating Linhardt, all that's left is Caspar. You will have the option to take over all the Strongholds or to just deal with Caspar directly. We recommend taking this on to achieve S-Rank for enemies defeated.
Check the menu to see your current progress for S-Rank! If you need to defeat more enemies, this is the perfect time!
12 Be sure your Awakening Gauge and Warrior Specials are ready to go and bombard Caspar with some. When he's defeated, he'll retreat.
Check the menu to see your current progress for S-Rank! If you need to defeat more enemies, this is the perfect time!
