Shin Ankoku: Day 8

I apologize for the lack of updates recently. As of now, I'm at Chapter 20 with a time of 17:44.xx. My team is a little one-sided in terms of class choices, and capacity isn't agreeing with me, so I have to leave various units out sometimes. For the record, I'm using all four Pegasus Knights, because I know they are good (from Monshou experience).

Notes:

1. I acquired all three orbs in Chapter 20, so now I have the broken Star Orb/Light Orb/Miracle Sword combo! Whee!

2. Chiki's in-game art makes her look like an elf, instead of "loli" bait. This is disappointing, considering she was quite hawt in Monshou Book 2.

3. Perhaps it's because I've never gotten very far in Ankoku, but I noticed a Book 2 map (mostly the same layout, but that's all) in this game. Pretty cool.

4. Quite a few of my units are close to promotion, but I'm still waiting until level 20 for everyone.

5. Some music changes have occured, so it has avoided Monshou's mistake of playing the same music track for a billion chapters in a row.

6. Lawrence looks like Solidus Snake (Metal Gear Solid 2). Not necessarily a bad thing, but it's very unoriginal of the artist.

7. Chapter 13 on level 5 Hard will probably be totally ridiculous. That chapter is filled with ballistae...
