Fun fact: Tordin in the PC version has Erven as its ruler, but in the SNES version it's princess Gweyn.

And yeah, Eadric seems the most legit for the throne.

I member being 14 and being addicted to this game. I played more of Genghis Khan 2 (SNES) and Brigandine (PSX). I think Pasha the dinosaur deserves the throne.

I'd challenge you to a game if that was possible.

You should check out Celtic Tales: Balor of the Evil Eye on DOS. It has a learning curve. I've never gotten into it. I played about five minutes before getting destroyed.

She starts in the corner of course its cake.

Try Brigandine Grand Edition on Hardest with Esgares. Enjoy the end boss.

Try Balor >>3692512

Try GK2 with a ruler that has politics E.

>Try Brigandine Grand Edition on Hardest with Esgares. Enjoy the end boss.
I already did, Grand Edition has some balance crimes, like the way that it's almost certain to give you class change items for monsters you have, or the fact that just like regular edition, you can prevent the loss of any and all territory at all times just by ordering one unit to attack each surrounding enemy territory and having them retreat at the start of your "attacking" phase.

Most RotTK games are harder.

Gemfire is like a easy baby mode version of RotTK

also

>With Esgares

I beat the regular version with Esgares, it was very tight because you barely have enough characters to defend the borders.

Unless you just take all your guys and march on that level 1 prince who barely puts up any fight, then just circle the continent clockwise letting some other goober worry about trying to hold the middle

Regular version is easy on hard. AI is dumb and retreats to much. On GE at least the End Boss is tough.

>>3692657
Play Balor and motivate me to get into it. Looks like a KOEI tactics game.

>>3692798
My strategy was take the borders from Norgard and march all the way to Leonia, and settle the Empire there, leaving the starting territories behind, then start my conquest from there.
Leonia starts the game extremely weak in comparison to any other country.

I beat the game on hard with every country except Norgard and New Almekia.
I want to play GE but i can't read rune.

The translated version of B:GE is arguably a different version of the game entirely that you shouldn't call the same thing.

Really? I just grabbed the patch and attempted some "blind" playthroughs. The one time I managed to stick with it and got to the end boss I fucked myself with my latest saves and how little time I had to left beat the boss.

I've played the original so many times I just skip the text. I wouldn't mind playing that online multiplayer.
