You're having trouble...? Anywhoways, here's some general tips:

- Don't recruit Percival, it's not worth the risk just to get him two chapters earlier.

- Keep your ass covered. There is a shit-ton of mounted reinforcements from where you start that'll sammich you while you're on the bridges.

- Split up. One healer for each team, and enough durable characters to make a wall on the bridges.

- USE DEIKE, CLARINE, RUTGER, LANCE, AND ALAN. THEY ARE THE BEST UNITS IN THE GAME. (Plus Miladey, but you're just recruiting her.)
