Veni, Vidi, Vici.
Great job on the Fire Emblem run. 
Are you planning on running Sacred Stones too?

Hey. Wow, a congratulating thread of my own. Thank you. 
I'm not experienced enough with the Sacred Stones yet, as I've only beaten it once. I do think it's possible though, and I'd go for Ephraim's route...for two reasons.
One, I like him and don't care for Eirika much, and he's a much better Lord/Great Lord in my opinion. He gets high stats anyway, and adding Metis' Tome (like I did) just makes it better.
I have a game in progress on "Difficult" now, and I'm on the chapter where you get Artur (stupid name change I'll bet) and Lute I think.
I don't think it would be all that difficult though, since I've become addicted to pre-promotes because of my Rekka no Ken run...and there are quite a few in this game.
I never liked Innes though (or his attitude), so I don't know if he'd prove to be a Louise character or not (pretty crappy stats to start with, joins late).
One other thing about a Sacred Stones run would be the Super Trainee (also know as Journeyman/Pupil/Recruit). It's available on a third playthrough, so I don't know if they would be allowed.
Then again, I doubt they'd be useful since they take time to train. I managed to beat the game for the first time with lots of tower abuse and some sitting around in less than 30 hours I think, so time spent training Ewan might be ok.
Thanks again for the compliment, I think I might start practicing for this soon.
