That is generally my same strategy honestly, albeit I try to make formations in such a way that I generally stay out of enemy ranges unless I purposefully want to aggro an enemy, and also in a way where I can feed exp to certain units if an opportunity arises.
And with the character attachment, it's always been a kind of problem for me that I get attached to almost every character I meet; not even in FE, but in practically everything I play/read/watch/etc.
Wow, you played all those FE games in 4 years... with a job? I'm impressed!
Oh, do you draw? I do too! If you feel comfortable, I'm interested in seeing what you've made ^^ If you don't want to share though, there's no pressure. That "project," too. You've intrigued me
And trust me, massive text walls aren't anything new. Don't forget you're on a forum. Big text walls are kind of an obligation here, lmao
