Chapter 21: The Advance Begins

Objective: Defeat the Leader

Room to room fighting is a nice change of pace thematically & you’ll need to be careful about jumping into some of the middle rooms that offer very little cover. However, you can also just keep going after you go into a room .. so if you have units with higher movement, you can zip straight up the left hand side without taking out all the foes. If you have a ranged character with good defense you can attract the tower top units over to the left to shoot down at you & defeat the boss without climbing up to be surrounded.

There isn’t much treasure here beyond the boss’s fortitude up item, but there are two tier two weapon tokens and a few tier one weapon tokens. The enemies are almost all physical, but there’s a single mage in the middle bottom room and a room full of fire mages on the right. The latter is just begging for a high fortitude character with Aethe’s Chill.
