Strategy / General Tips

• At least one flying unit is needed in order to bait out the lance flier.
• Since all of the enemies on this map are physical fighters, units with high DEF are suggested.
• Before combat is initiated, try to move your units to the right side of the map, since it'll take more turns for the enemy units to reach you.

Unit Recommendations

• Effie is a strong unit for this map as she can deal with the two red units and even one of the blue units by herself. She cannot however tank Michalis, as he will kill her in one hit.
• Sanaki, Lilina, Tharja, Tiki: Dragon Scion and some of the green mages can kill Michalis in one turn due to his low speed and low resistance
• From the Battling Michalis summoning focus:
  • Minerva can be used to bait out the lance flier. As an alternative Narcian, Camilla or even Subaki (due to his high HP, SPD and DEF) can be used.
  • Gordin can be used to kill the two fliers due to his weapon advantage. He can even deal significant damage to Michalis due to his Brave Bow+.
