Let's Play Battle Moon Wars

[prof]

<< | ^^ | >>




Shirou is... kind of terrible! His max range is 2, and he doesn't have Strike. He'll be useful later, though.

Upgrades: +7 Quick for Lancer, +100 weapon power for Haruna, +5 Quick and Defender (Damage reduced by 20% when Will > 130) for Shirou. Onwards!



We've caught up with SHIKI again! No time for anything except Akiha Rage, apparently.

Chapter 20: Demonic Devouring Plane

That's not how you should talk to your older brother, Akiha.


Even if we're related by blood, I will never acknowledge you as my brother!!


How heartless... well, that's fine too. That's what I expected.


This place will be a decisive battle.


Aah, this area is filled with magic.


Could this magic belong to Rider?


Rider? Well, it might...


Tch... And it's hard to use a spear in here...


Rider, do it!! They are trapped in your Temple!




Blood Temple Andromeda! It still remained!? But... this is different...
This time, it feels like we're being drained as we move?


If this continues, it could be bad. We've got to stop Rider!

But remember not to kill her.


Yes. If we can defeat her Master first, Rider can come back to us.


Exactly.



Slightly more complicated conditions!

I lose if Rider dies, but I have to lower her HP to 5100 or below to get the Mastery. Goal: Defeat SHIKI.



This map is full of something the computer loves to do - defensive support groups. All the enemies on this map are in clumps of 2 or more, and constantly taking hits for each other. It makes the work of getting through to the enemy quite difficult, and I'm on a time limit...



As long as Andromeda is live, we're all slowly but inevitably losing Will. Gotta stop that shit!



Using her Snipe Spirit ability, Sakura can attack from absurd distance. Useful!



Turn 4! Can we cut Rider down to size?



Shirou gets the last defensive support out of the way!



Akiha follows up with some Valor-upgraded red stuff!



And Rin and Sakura finish cutting her down to critical.






Uwa! What's that?!


How unusual for you to be so well prepared.


Well, I didn't expect to be able to kill you with just Rider's magic.



The battle resumes, with 8 more enemies!

Now we can ignore Rider. And by can, I mean must.



In the meantime, SHIKI and his bird companion are getting into the fray!



Our team is stopped in its tracks for a turn or two as we deal with the new enemies...



...but they don't last all that long.



Now for the bosses!

Shitsu first, because killing SHIKI will end the map, and I want more BP.



Also, the thing has much less HP.

Shitsu down, on to SHIKI!







Guess who else got Valor?



Yeah, dude is hosed.




Yes!

Rider...


...


What went wrong... Rider?


...


You don't want to contract again with me?



...


Rider?




You still live!?


Have you forgotten, Akiha? I can't be killed so easily!
Even if I'm defeated, her contract still remains.


Eh? But how?


Because her Master is not me anymore!!


Wha... what do you mean!?


I'm just borrowing her from someone else. Rider, let's go! We're retreating for now!!



MAP CLEAR
Battle Mastery achieved!

Next time: The thrilling conclusion of Act 2!
