I do think BK being triggered from getting in the boss's range is ok because the map splits up your army and if you're not in the know, it's very likely someone is close to his threat range

I still think PoR has one of the best-realised and most nuanced settings in any video game I've played, and communicates all of that cultural, political and historical complexity in an amazingly digestible way through dialogue AND gameplay. Just this snapshot of one chapter reminds me of how amazing PoR does this. I really think PoR is the most Kaga-like game in the post-Kaga era.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jO2_-PzmcIM&t=210">3:30</a> I have to disagree here: One of FE 9's strengths is that even minor characters are given moments to speak aside from their recruitment dialogue, usually in the chapter right after they are recruited or when they would have something to say (e.g.: Marcia returning to Begnion, Jill returning to Daein). The post recruitment conversations help you remember that these new guys exist, give you a taste of what they're like, and helps sell that they are people with their own personalities and stories. These could have been done on map, but that runs the risk of ruining the illusion that they are in combat, where every second counts. Doing it in the next chapter gives everyone time to breath. <br><br>They don't contribute to the thematic goal of the chapter, but they accomplish the goal of fleshing out the cast.

I will forever praise the decision to throw the Black Knight onto the map at different points of the game. Not only does this scare a new player, but it also allows them to take a peak at his stats and allow you to compare Ike's (or anyone really) stats to his. You can see how far you've got to go the first time you see him and then how far along you've come the second time you see him. Especially in the context of Ike's PoV since he looked up to Greil and the Black Knight actually beat Greil in a fight.
