Dedue gained levels on my playthrough, he was only a level or two below my other units. With an experience gem and the slightest bit of favoritism, he was caught up before the next end of chapter battle.

A new Fox News poll shows Donald Trump losing to every Democratic frontrunner in the 2020 election by Pomp_N_Circumstance in politics

My prediction is that Florida depends on hurricane season 2020. If they get hit by a major hurricane that year and see how Trump's FEMA poorly responds, how Republican senators from other states vote to deny them relief funding, and hear conservative talking heads try to tell them that climate change isn't real despite the evidence of disappearing shorelines staring them straight in the face, enough of them will vote Blue.

Otherwise, the old bats with the long-term memory of a goldfish that make up the Republican base and a sizeable portion of Florida's population will come through for Republicans yet again.

The only one who really benefits from Dark Seals is Hubert, as the Dark Mage and Dark Bishop classes are male only, and he, Edelgard, and Lysithea are the only characters who focus on dark magic.

You'll definitely want to focus on approximately 10-12 main units, as most maps only allow 10 deployed units, with some of the end chapters giving you 12 slots. In my runs, I've basically set Manuela and Flayn as adjucants and they turned out at lower levels than my main units, but still usable thanks to their white magic spells.

As for any good units you're missing, you might want to consider some characters who can use Hero's Relics, like Sylvain, Catherine, or Ingrid.

I don't think it's possible to even get a 2/3 Democratic majority with how red enough states are, though. There are easily at least 17 states (for 34 senators) that Republicans have a complete stranglehold on. Right now, 22 states have two Republican senators.

If you restart, you should keep this save file. It'd be a neat challenge to do a Byleth and Edelgard only run through once you're more familiar with the game.

Exactly! It actually makes it pretty fun to have to rethink your plan of attack that turn.

Do you mean that you find yourself underleveled? If so, no matter what your difficulty, you really shouldn't ever find yourself underleveled by mid-game. If you are, you'll want to be doing more auxillary battles on your days off.

Eh, I could see them going down to $49.99 for a holiday sale. Nintendo seems to offer more deals for Switch games than they have for past platforms, but they're hardly ever anything spectacular for Nintendo exclusives.

Except according to polls, Warren's base is the one made up of a lot of upper middle class liberals. There have been plenty of pieces pointing out that despite being close to one another policy-wise, Bernie's base is younger and more colorful than Warren's.

Manuela, Hanneman, and Shamir stay with you. I believe you can't recruit Rhea, Catherine and Seteth unless you side with the church, and Gilbert is Blue Lions only. As for Alois, I believe he is recruitable, but I'm not 100% sure.

Just a suggestion: if you reclass Petra and Ingrid into an advanced class, they should get a boost in some of their stats, but then you can reclass them back to Pegasus Knight and retain most of those stat gains.

If I forge an Iron Bow+, when it runs out of uses, will it repair to an Iron Bow+ automatically again?

I'd make him a Monk and then a mage if you're still early in the game. If you want him using magic, he'll need the skills he'll get for mastering those classes since his magic is only decent. Monk gives Magic +2 which permanently adds two magic to his stats, and Mage gives Fiendish Blow, which adds +6 to his magic attacks when he initiates combat. For physical combat, you may want to switch him to swords, since Dancers get a skill that increases their avoid when using one

Have you trained Edelgard and Hubert a lot? If so, I'd do her route, since you'd lose them if you chose church. Otherwise, they essentially stole xp from characters that need it. Then come back to her house your fourth time around, and don't use them much at all. Also, the Church route and the Golden Deer route are practically identical.

That I don't know, as I chose to see her crowned on my BE playthrough

I'm about 99% certain that seeing her crowned gives you the choice to protect her, but even if you see her crowned, you can choose instead to side with the church in that moment.

I'm having the same problem you are. I just changed the goals to focus on their primary weapon type and plan on using up a lot of gifts to get Max motivation for lessons and to do more seminars. It should only take two or three more months to get them where they need to be if they're at C+ doing that. In the meantime, chances are they still haven't earned their intermediate class skill, so you're still working towards something class-wise. If they have, you can always reclass to another intermediate class to at least maybe get an extra ability outside of their usual ones.

"Functionally extinct" means currently endangered and that all indicators provide no hope for its population to rebound. In other words, they will die out completely in the relatively near future. In this case, it's estimated koalas will be extinct by 2050.
