Combat at Tailtean Plains Strategy Guide
Send Troops Up North And Eastwards
Split your units into 2 battle groups - 1 pushes north targeting enemy commander, the other pushes east to prepare for Rhea's arrival.Church Forces Arrives From The East And South
Rhea and her forces arrive after a few turns from the east and south, forming a pincer attack against you. Defeat Rhea quickly to avoid being surrounded.
Church Units Withdraw With the Defeat of Rhea
Church Units will immediately withdraw upon the defeat of Rhea, so focus on her instead of her units. the Golem however, will not retreat.
Leave Commanders For Last
Commanders on this map(Dimitri, Sylvain, etc) will not move to engage your forces unless you strike, so clean out mobs before you touch them. Dudue however, should not be approached until ready, as he has a nasty surprise waiting for you.
Special Dialogues When Attacking Dimitri
Dimitri has many unique dialogues depending on who's engaging him. Have Edelgard, former Blue Lions characters engage him for different dialogues.
Kingdom Soldiers Transforms Into Demonic Beasts
Kingdom Soldiers will turn into Demonic Beasts after certain turns. Be sure to wipe out kingdom units to prevent them from becoming stronger.
Dedue Will Transform Into Something Even Stronger
Dedue will transform into a powerful Stone Demonic Beast as soon as your unit get close to him. It is immune to critical hits and has a super wide-range attack, so stay away from him until you're ready.
Tips on How to Beat Demonic Beast Here!Prioritize Kingdom Soldier On The Center Healing Tile
The Kindom Soldier located on the center healing tile has a unique long-range magical attack called Bolting, and will focus on Edelgard from a long distance. Deal with her quickly.
Defeat Kingdom General (or Mercedes) To Stop Reinforcements
The Kingdom General (or Mercedes if you didn't recruit her) will bring in 1 Pegasus Knight reinforcements each turn. Send cavalry after her as you push north.
