KP 2010 Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) Off the back of having almost finished an FE9 draft (last chapter to go), I've decided I want to play an FE7 draft. I've copied most of the ruleset from a draft GeneralHorace hosted.[spoiler=Marcus]Marcus is a draftable unit, but is only available for use starting in Chapter 22: Kinship's Bond, like Isadora. The goal of this is to put more value into previously overlooked Hero Crest users (and other early-game units). When Marcus is free, everyone basically gets the same turncounts from chapter 11 - 16, which is lame. [spoiler=Tony Mode (OPTIONAL)]Tony Mode is optional! Tony Mode is a hack made by Xeld (I believe). It basically means that your character's level ups will follow their average stats (sort of like Fixed Mode in FE9). Because of the way the level ups are adjusted, you don't gain any stats from reaching Level 20, so you can promote at Level 19 without 'losing out' on any stats. The patch can be found near the bottom of the first post of the Project Directory: http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=44618 You'll need to apply the FE7 Tony Mode patch to the FE7 ROM (which you'll have to locate yourself - try Googling). If you need help patching the ROM, check this topic: http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=349 As a side-note, I personally used the NUPS patcher and I found to be very easy and straightforward to use. Tony Mode is completely optional. I prefer playing without worrying about getting RNG-screwed. Drafting:1. This draft is for 4 players.2. Hector, Eliwood, Merlinus, Ninian/Nils, and Athos are free for all to use.3. Bartre and Karla are drafted as a pair.4. Marcus is a draftable unit, for use starting in Chapter 22.5. The game will be played on Hector Normal Mode, skipping Lyn Mode.Rules:1. Undrafted units may recruit characters, rescue undrafted units and NPCs, trade, visit Shops and Armories, and dig up items in the desert.2. Undrafted units may not do anything not listed above, including but not limited to meatshielding, building Supports, opening Doors or Chests, and talking to Fargus in Chapter 17x.3. All Gaiden Chapters except 23x and 28x are required to be visited. 23x and 28x may be visited at the player's discretion, and don't count towards the total turncount up to 20 turns taken per chapter.4. Other units may do as they please without penalty.5. Defend chapters count the last played Player Phase for turns if the timer is waited out.6. Marcus is banned from all use before Chapter 22. This means you can't have him route chapter 14 with a 4 turn penalty. Starting from Chapter 22 onwards, anyone can use him and suffer the standard 4 turn penalty (obviously, the person who drafts him suffers no penalty and can use him freely from Chapter 22 onwards).Penalties:1. Undrafted units have a 4 turn penalty, per unit per chapter.Exceptions:1. Matthew is allowed to open doors in Chapter 11 but cannot enter combat or steal. 2. Meatshielding is allowed for Chapter 13x.3. Lyn, Kent, Sain and Wil are free for Chapter 16.4. Undrafted Thieves may be used to obtain necessary Promotion items.Teams:1. Carmine Sword: Lowen, Erk, Rath, Matthew, Farina, Serra, Vaida, Nino, Renault2. KP 2010: Florina, Heath, Canas, Bartre/Karla, Guy, Isadora, Rebecca, Legault, Geitz/Wallace3. General Horace: Sain, Fiora, Lucius, Dorcas, Dart, Marcus, Lyn, Jaffar, Harken4.

Gradivus. Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) in EDIT: Hector mode C21 is New Resolve, not Kinship's Bond. Do you mean C21 or C22? Edited June 20, 2015 by Gradivus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KP 2010 Posted June 20, 2015 Author Share Posted June 20, 2015 Oh good spot. The rules I copied specified Kinship's Bond so let's go for Chapter 22. I'll edit the first post! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gradivus. Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Also what I forgot, in Hector mode it's C23x and C28x for Gaidens instead of 22x/26x. The map where Lyn returns is C16. The one with Fargus is 17x. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KP 2010 Posted June 20, 2015 Author Share Posted June 20, 2015 All changed. Muchos gracias. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gradivus. Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 (edited) I'm wondering how many would join if it weren't Tony mode. It isn't a dealbreaker for me but I also sort of prefer playing the game in its "standard version". Maybe I'm wondering wrong though. Edited June 21, 2015 by Gradivus.

KP 2010 Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 (edited) I was thinking this earlier too. I'm more than happy to change it from Tony Mode to normal. I guess I'll do it now and hopefully 3 more people will join. I'll make Tony Mode optional. Edited June 21, 2015 by KP 2010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I'll bite I guess. I have no preference on tony mode, it shouldn't affect fe7 too much because your strong units just get so overlevelled it doesn't matter almost. I guess warp range.

General Horace Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) if nobody joins for a few days (or whenever, depending on how eager you are to start this) we could just toss Geitz/Wallace back into the drafting pool and run 36 draftable units edit: its actually 36 without them, so with 5 people we'd have an uneven number of units anyway.

KP 2010 Posted June 29, 2015 Author Share Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) Excellent suggestion! I think we've been waiting for too long already so let's just start with 4. Here is your sequence: 4132 Timestamp: 2015-06-29 16:58:44 UTC So I guess the order is Carmine Sword, me, General Horace and, last but not least, Gradivus. I've added a list of the Units Remaining (and it does add up to 36). Edited June 29, 2015 by KP 2010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmine Sword Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) Sorry, I was out shopping. I'll take Lowen. EDIT: In the list of units remaining, Eliwood is listed instead of Marcus. Edited June 29, 2015 by Carmine Sword Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KP 2010 Posted June 29, 2015 Author Share Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) Heath Sorry not on computer so can't edit first post properly. Also I realised Ninian was included in the units remaining so I swapped her out for Geitz/Wallace. Edited June 29, 2015 by KP 2010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmine Sword Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Damn it, I wanted Heath. Erk and Rath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KP 2010 Posted June 29, 2015 Author Share Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) And I wanted Erk I think Lucius will be too difficult for me to recruit so Canas it is! Thinking about it, no Marcus Tony Mode will be tough coz average stats are quite low in the beginning.

General Horace Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 I'll take Lucius then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmine Sword Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Lucius and Canas have pretty much the same amount of availability anyway, but Canas doesn't cost any turns. Although Lucius will help send you to Kenneth's map instead of Jerme's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 in tony mode lucius's warp range is a bit higher too, since he caprams magic really quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
