Think beyond one attack
The party’s position matters beyond the target of its next attack. Bringing allies into supporting positions can make an exchange safer and give the following character a better opening. Customisable abilities let you adjust the group without abandoning a familiar character. The attractive animated presentation makes the campaign approachable, although its use of historical names should not be mistaken for an account of the Hundred Years’ War.
Plan a turn for the whole group before moving the first character. Check which ally can support the next attack and which unit would be exposed afterwards. Choose an edition whose language lets you understand the ability descriptions comfortably.
A fantasy using historical names
Level-5’s product record dates the Japanese PSP release to November 2006; Sony announced its North American edition for 2007. The game uses Joan of Arc and the conflict between France and England as material for a fantasy involving magic and monsters. Its tactical systems are the reason for its place in this collection.
Why we chose it for PSP
Build a tactical turn around the ways adjacent allies can support each other.
