I'm going even more off topic!!! (And that wasn't off topic, it's commenting on the team) Just simply get all your males into Dragoon or Swordmaster as soon as possible. Knights are ok but to get a good one you first need the character to be a Ninja for a while so the Knight can have ok movement. Most people begin by turning everyone into Ninjas as they can walk on water and is very fast and can jump pretty high.

only problem with turning into dragoons right away is the slayer's emblem is a little annoying to get...also i sometimes go knight right away...their agility increase isn't too terrible, it's jsut their base movement sux. i'd say if you're changing into a swordmaster make it a knight, if you're changing into a dragoon into a ninja

Actually, having a band of Ninjas in the start isn't too bad. Their agility increase'll come in handy no matter which class you pick. They also can use spells not too bad as well as attack physically, so if you're going for a specific emblem...

well i disagree with that...for me, alphonse is lvl. 3 with 98 strength and 5 intelligence...which do you think he does more damage with?

simple trick...a little cheap though i admit. make sure your last save file is a new game after the first battle. suspend your data right before you beat shaher in a differnet file. now with the new file as your last save file, kill shaher. your data will be saved on your new file. now alphonse starts the game with Anbicion and either the Relix emblem or the Cycle of Life emblem (or both) depending on which ending(s) you got. so in the second battle (with ivanna) i killed all my enemies. so i got the centurion emblem, and i answered the questions so i started out with +10 strength. so i was already looking at 60 strength and like 26 intelligence. i gave my main gun anbicion, killed a weak soldier, got the war god emblem so my stats were 94 strength and 0 intelligence at level 2. i became a ninja, gained a level, so my stats were 98 strength and 5 intelligence...simple, but kinda cheap. oh well!

I'm going off topic for one post and you can't stop me.

Now, Paigne sure has managed to delete a lot of posts here. Such an act... marks a mod that is using his/her powers over the edge. I don't remember a single mod doing this. Sure it's not THAT on topic but it's a discussion. This is a forum. If we have to go to a SPECIFIC CANNOT BE EVEN OFF BY A CENTIMETRE thread to say what we want to say and can't even start conversations, this forum'll lose it's purpose.

paigne is a temp. mod. who is attempting to clean this forum up...no one can deny how spammed this forum has become (mostly because it's filled with newbies) and you shouldn't ever trash a mod anyways
