Gladius - Strategy Guide (Page 08)

Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Gladius - Strategy Guide (Page 08).

Place your Centurion on the bottom row, on the second space from the right, of
the available area on the map.  This will put him right in front of the top
crate.  Have him run to the top of the stack of crates when the battle starts.
He will be able to make it if you placed him in the right spot.  Then just use
Defend until the battle ends.  The enemies won't be able to kill you if you
Defend.
*******************************************************************************

Once you've beaten all the leagues you want to, head for the tournament.

*******************************************************************************
SLOAN FOREST TOURNAMENT
Prize: None
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FOREST KINGS
Prize: 500D-1500D
My team: Langston, Murmillo, Ludo
Number of enemies: 3

The enemies here are random.  Take a look at them ahead of time and select the
right characters to defeat them.  When you place your characters, place them
next to an enemy they are effective against.  Then you'll be able to win in
one or two rounds.  Just use a combo or two for each enemy to win.
*******************************************************************************

You're done in the Sloan Forest now and you can actually head for the Nordagh
championship in Orin.  However, there are 3 more Circle of Elites Tier 2
leagues (in Vargen, Mordare, and Fliuch) that you can do.  Then you can do the
Circle of Elites championship in Orin.  It's not required that you do this, but
it will get you some decent prizes.  If you don't want to do this, skip ahead
to the Nordagh championship in Orin.  If you do want to do it, go to Vargen.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VARGEN REVISITED                                                         {VLN8}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*******************************************************************************
CIRCLE OF ELITES TIER 2
Badges required: Mordare Circle 1, Fliuch Circle 1, Sloan Forest Circle 1,
                 Vargen Circle 1
Prize: 2000D-6000D, Vargen Circle 2 badge, Heavy Spear, Wooden Shield, Wood
       Armored Hat, Ringmail Guard
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There are 3 battles here.  You only need to beat one of them to win the league
if you don't want to do them all.


BASIC BATTLE
Prize: 500D-1500D
Fee: 500D
My team: Langston, Centurion, Ludo
Number of enemies: 2 teams of 3

You start out close to one of the teams and further away from the other.  So
you'll most likely need to kill all the members of both teams.  Start out by
placing your characters effectively on the map so they can kill the enemies in
one or two turns.  Then you can wait for the other team and take care of them
when they get to you.


KING OF THE HILL
Prize: 500D-1500D
Fee: 500D
My team: Langston, Secutor
Number of enemies: 3 teams of 2

This is the hardest King of the Hill battle you've fought.  You start out a
little farther away from the hill than some of the enemies, so you'll have to
use a fast character if you want to get on top first.  However, if you use a
Light character, he will get killed within a couple of turns.  So you'll need
to have a stronger character in the next square to take his place when he dies.
Then you can use Defend until the time is up.  It might take you a few tries to
win this battle, you need a little luck.  And restart if there are too many
enemy Gungnirs.


VANDAL BATTLE
Prize: 500D-1500D
Fee: 500D
My team: Secutor, Murmillo, Centurion
Number of enemies: 3

The barrels here are all pretty close to the enemies, so you'll need to be
fast.  Have one character in front of the nearest barrel so they can move in
and attack it on the first turn.  Have another long-range character in front
of the next barrel so they can attack it on the first turn if possible.  Then
you'll need one more crate.  Have a Secutor as close to the north end of the
arena as you can, so they can use Sprint Attack to get to the last one.  Again,
it may take a couple of tries to get it right.
*******************************************************************************

When you're done with this league, head to Mordare.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MORDARE REVISITED                                                        {VLN9}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*******************************************************************************
CIRCLE OF ELITES TIER 2
Badges required: Mordare Circle 1, Fliuch Circle 1, Sloan Forest Circle 1,
                 Vargen Circle 1
Prize: 2000D-6000D, Mordare Circle 2 badge, Hak, Wooden Shield, Confortari,
       Heavy Leather
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

VANDAL BATTLE
Prize: 1200D-2400D
Fee: 350D
My team: Murmillo, Secutor, Centurion
Number of enemies: 3

Place a Secutor closest to the barrel up on the ledge so you can reach it in
one Sprint Attack.  The other two barrels are easy to get; an attack like Roam
or Running Attack will get them.  The barrels are closer to you than the
enemies, so this is an easy battle.


BASIC BATTLE
Prize: 1200D-2400D
Fee: 350D
My team: Langston, Ursula, Centurion
Number of enemies: 2 teams of 3

Remember for the multi-team battles that you take out enemies on both sides
evenly, so they can still attack each other.  That way you won't have to deal
with all 6 enemies.  So pick an enemy on either side to get rid of, while the
other enemies attack each other.  Then clean up whatever is left.


POINTS BATTLE
Prize: 1200D-2400D
Fee: 350D
My team: Centurion, Langston, Iaar, Samnite
Number of enemies: 4

Take your 4 strongest gladiators for this battle.  Then pick an enemy or two,
surround them, and attack them with combos.  Your attacks should be strong
enough that a few combos will guarantee your victory.
*******************************************************************************

Now, the last Tier 2 league is in Fliuch, so head over there.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FLIUCH REVISITED                                                        {VLN10}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*******************************************************************************
CIRCLE OF ELITES TIER 2
Badges required: Mordare Circle 1, Fliuch Circle 1, Sloan Forest Circle 1,
                 Vargen Circle 1
Prize: 1000D-2000D, Fliuch Circle 2 badge
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

POINTS BATTLE
Prize: 500D-1500D
Fee: 200D
My team: Langston, Centurion
Number of enemies: 2 teams of 2, 1 team of 3

Another point battle, similar to all the other ones.  Except this time, there
is one team of 3.  It shouldn't matter, though.  Pick an enemy to attack and
use Running Attack or Roam to get to him, then attack him relentlessly using
combos until you run out of points.  Then use regular attacks or affinity
attacks until you're out of time.


BASIC BATTLE
Prize: 1200D-2400D
Fee: 200D
My team: Ursula, Langston, Centurion, Murmillo
Number of enemies: 4

There are crates along the outside of the arena, and some of the enemies will
probably start on top of them.  So place your characters in the center of the
arena to start out with.  When the battle starts, kill everyone in the center
of the arena, then wait for the enemies on the outside to come.  When they
arrive, kill them too.


KING OF THE HILL
Prize: 1200D-2400D
Fee: 200D
My team: Centurion, Langston, Iaar, Valens
Number of enemies: 4

Place your team along the right edge of the available area.  When the battle
begins, have the closest character climb to the top.  Then use Defend until the
battle ends.  You should be able to make it to the top in time, but if the
enemy gets there first, the best thing to do is just kill all the enemies.  You
have enough time to kill them all, and it's easier just to kill them than to
try to get on the top crate before another enemy can get on.
*******************************************************************************

Well, you're done with every league in Nordagh.  Now go to Orin for the Circle
and regional championships.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ORIN (CHAMPIONSHIP)                                                     {VLN11}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you did the Circle of Elites Tier 2 leagues, you can do the Circle
Championship now.

*******************************************************************************
CIRCLE CHAMPIONSHIP
Badges required: Fliuch Circle 2, Mordare Circle 2, Sloan Forest Circle 2,
                 Vargen Circle 2
Prize: 2000D-4000D, Eow, Gebo, Ingwaz, Uruz
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There is only one battle here.  It's just a regular defeat-all-enemies battle.
The enemies in it are random, but just the standard Nordagh enemies.

CHAMPIONSHIP
Prize: 1200D-3600D
Fee: 500D
My team: Centurion, Langston, Valens, Murmillo
Number of enemies: 4

Look at your enemies ahead of time and choose your party accordingly.  Place
all of them in the line in the middle of the arena.  Then have each character
go after one enemy.  Have the Heavy characters kill Barbarians, Bears,
Gungnirs, and raged Berserkers.  Have the Medium characters kill Berserkers,
Wolves, and Satyrs.  Use combos to bring them down.  This certainly isn't a
very hard battle for a championship.
*******************************************************************************

When you're ready, enter the Nordagh championship.

*******************************************************************************
NORDAGH REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP
Badges required: Kingdom Open, Free Peoples, Dreas Open
Prize: 4000D-12000D, Nordagh Champion badge, Bone Axe, Reinforced Targe, Iron
       Campana, War Hammer
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CHAMPIONSHIP
Prize: 300D-900D
Fee: 100D
My team: Valens, Centurion, Langston
Number of enemies: 3

This isn't much of a challenge for the regional championship.  You've fought
many more difficult battles than this.  Take your three best characters and
place them in the center of the arena.  You can have them stick together and
take the enemies out one at a time, or have each of the go after one enemy.
Either way, you'll win easily.
*******************************************************************************

When you're done with this battle, Urlan will join your school.  You'll then be
given the option to stay here in Nordagh, or proceed to the Windward Steppes.
Make sure you've done everything you need to do in Nordagh - sidequests,
recruiting, whatever.  When you're ready to move on, enter and exit a town and
Usus will ask you if you want to leave.  Choose yes to proceed to the Steppes.
You can now pick up the walkthrough at the Windward Steppes section, below
Ursula's Quest.

*IMPORTANT*
Before leaving Nordagh, make sure you've completed the Sigi sidequest in
Mordare.  If you don't do it now, you won't be able to get the Hell's Fury
ability later in the game.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
                                URSULA'S QUEST                            {US1}
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Ursula's quest begins in Nordagh.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
                                    NORDAGH                              {USNI}
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Watch the opening scene.  Then Ursula will challenge Urlan to a fight.  You
can't do much in this battle.  Attack on your first turn, trying to get the
swing meter in the critical zone.  On the next turn, you'll use Empower Self,
then you can attack Urlan one more time to end the battle.

After another scene, Usus will give some a basic tutorial.  Just listen and do
what he says to learn the basics of fighting.  Afterwards, you'll head off to
earn your talisman in Fliuch.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FLIUCH                                                                   {USN1}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The league officer here will explain a little about leagues and battles.
Select Leagues from the menu, and enter the Arena Certification league.

*******************************************************************************
ARENA CERTIFICATION
Badges required: None
Prize: 100D-300D, Nordagh Talisman
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

First of all, you can enter the Practice battle to fight against the target
post if you want some extra practice using the swing meters.  There are 5
training battles and the final exam.  If you already know how to battle, you
can just skip to the final exam.


CERTIFICATION 1
Prize: 100D-300D
My team: Ursula, Urlan
Enemies: Barbarian, Wolf

Usus will give you a lesson on skills and targeting.  Listen to what he says,
then you'll need to defeat the Barbarian and Wolf.  Go after to Wolf first.
Have Urlan and Ursula each attack him once.  If he has any HP after that, just
attack him one more time.  When the Wolf is down, move to the Barbarian and
attack him the same way.


CERTIFICATION 2
Prize: 100D-300D
My team: Ursula, Urlan
Enemies: 2x Barbarian

Usus will teach you about facing.  When two characters have both attacked each
other (or one of them blocked the other's attack), they are engaged.  You can
then hit the engaged enemy in the side or the back to do extra damage.  Have
Ursula hit the Barbarian that is engaged with Urlan in the back.  Then have
Urlan attack from the front again, which will probably kill the Barbarian.
Repeat the process for the other Barbarian.


CERTIFICATION 3
Prize: 100D-300D
My team: Ursula, Urlan
Enemies: 2x Barbarian

Now Usus will explain height advantages.  If you're on higher ground than your
enemy, you'll do more damage to them and they'll do less to you.  Just attack
the Barbarians while you're standing on the crates.  Two or three attacks each
will bring them down.


CERTIFICATION 4
Prize: 100D-300D
My team: Ursula, Urlan
Enemies: Bandit, Samnite

Usus will explain about classes.  Light characters are weak against Medium
characters, who are weak against Heavy characters, who are weak against Light
characters.  The Bandit will be easy to kill; two hits will do it.  The Samnite
will be tougher, though.  To beat her, get up on the crates and attack from
there.  It's a good idea to surround her and attack her from the back, too.


CERTIFICATION 5
Prize: 100D-300D
My team: Ursula, Urlan
Enemies: Barbarian

Usus will teach you about affinity attacks.  Listen to what he says, then keep
attacking the Barbarian until Urlan has 2 full circles of affinity.  Then use
the affinity attack on the Barbarian.  You'll notice that it will do no damage
because her defensive affinity cancels out your offensive affinity.


FINAL EXAM
Prize: 100D-300D
My team: Ursula, Urlan
Enemies: Bandit, Barbarian, Samnite

Now it's time to use what you've learned in a real battle.  Try to take out the
Samnite first, because she can deal the most damage to you.  To defeat her, get
up on the crates and attack her using critical hits.  She'll go down quickly if
you're attacking from a tall crate.  After the Samnite is down, take care of
the Barbarian the same way, then go after the Bandit.
*******************************************************************************

After this battle, Urlan will gain a level and you'll be taken to the school
menu to learn about skills.  Listen to what Usus says, then you can learn a new
skill.  I'd recommend learning Combo Attack 1 first.

You can now visit the recruiting office by selecting Recruiting at the league
office.  You should have some money by now, so you can recruit a new character
or two.  Gungnirs are good to have, and you might want to get a Bandit too, if
you have the money.

You can also go to the shop now.  To get there, exit to the town menu and
select the second option there (The Stopover).  This is the shop.  You'll be
given an explanation on shopping.  Then you can buy some equipment for your
characters.  Get Ursula a shield if you can.

Now, there's a trick you can use to get a lot of money.  Exit to the world map
by pressing B at the town menu.  Usus will take you to Roanor.  Exit Roanor,
and you'll have access to the world map.

There are 6 towns in Nordagh - Fliuch is where you came from, which is located
up the road to the north of Roanor.  If you go towards Fliuch, there will be a
fork in the road.  Take the north path to get to Fliuch, and the west path to
get to Orin.  If you head northwest from Roanor or southwest from Fliuch, there
will be three more towns along the path there - Mordare, Vargen, and the Sloan
Forest.  You can enter all of these towns and shop there and get new recruits.
However, you should wait on doing leagues in any towns other than Fliuch for
now.

At the recruiting office of each town, you can hire someone.  Then you can
strip them of their equipment and sell it to make a nice profit.  Then you can
expel the recruit. If you do this with some Lv. 2 or 3 Barbarians and Gungnirs,
you'll make quite a bit of money.  I did it for 10 or 15 minutes and ended up
with over 30,000D. You can use this money to go shopping in Roanor to buy some
good helmets and weapons for your characters.

While you're out on the world map, you can check the different towns' recruits
and get a couple of Gungnirs if you don't already have them.  Buy them the best
weapon you can afford, and get a Wolf Cowl for them at Roanor.  Also buy Urlan
and Ursula some good weapons and a good helmet.  Armor is pretty expensive, and
you can get it from other leagues, so you don't have to buy everyone armor.
Weapons and helmets are best.  There is also an accessory salesman just west of
Roanor.  You can shop for accessories there (if you don't know what an
accessory does, press Y to view info on it). When you're ready, head back to
Fliuch.

Now you can enter some of the other leagues here.

*******************************************************************************
LEAGUE OF REDEMPTION
Badges required: None
Prize: 200D-400D, Main Gauche
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In this league, you'll be fighting criminals to punish them.  You'll mostly
fight Bandits here, but you may run into a Barbarian occasionally.


ATONEMENT 1
Prize: 100D-300D
My team: Urlan, Ursula, Gungnir
Number of enemies: 3

For this battle, wait where you start at and let the enemies come to you.  You
can use Long Throw with your Gungnir to kill the enemies before they get to
you.  If you got some good equipment before, you should be able to kill a
Bandit with one Long Throw or one combo attack.  So use Long Throw until they
get within close range, then kill them with combos from Urlan and Ursula


ATONEMENT 2
Prize: 200D-500D
My team: Urlan, Ursula, Gungnir
Number of enemies: 4

There will be a stack of crates in the middle of the arena this time, so try to
get on top of them so you can deal more damage.  Use Long Throw with a Gungnir
and combos from Urlan and Ursula to kill your enemies.  It's important that you
stay close together so your enemies don't surround one character.  Again, one
combo or Long Throw will kill an enemy if you bought some good equipment.


ATONEMENT 3
Prize: 100D-300D
My team: Urlan, Ursula
Number of enemies: 3

Like the first battle, wait at the starting point until the enemies get to you.
You can have Ursula use Empower Self right before they get to you.  Then use
combos on the enemies to kill them.  Urlan and Ursula should each be able to
kill a Bandit with one combo with their new equipment.
*******************************************************************************

*******************************************************************************
CONTEST OF THE FREE PEOPLES
Badges required: None
Prize: 200D-700D, Free Peoples badge, Banded Shield, Fur Hat, Jackal Pelt,
       Small Sword
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In this league, you'll be fighting a variety of different kinds of battles.
You'll also find a new enemy here - the Berserker.  Berserkers are Light
characters, so defeat them the same way you would a Bandit.


VANDAL BATTLE
Prize: 100D-300D
Fee: 25D
My team: Ursula, Urlan, Gungnir
Number of enemies: 3

The object of a Vandal Battle is to destroy more of the barrels on the field
than the enemies can.  Once all the barrels are destroyed or the time runs out,
the team with the most barrels destroyed wins.

Place Urlan and Ursula near a barrel, and place a Gungnir in a place where you
can use Long Throw to destroy a barrel.  The barrels have 24 HP, so you should
be able to destroy them in one hit.  If Urlan, Ursula, and your other character
each destroy one barrel, you will win.  The enemies will probably get the other
two.


RIVAL NATIONS
Prize: 100D-300D
Fee: 25D
My team: Urlan, Ursula, Gungnir, Bandit
Number of enemies: 4

This is your first Rival Nations battle.  The point of this battle is to
destroy your enemies' statue before they can destroy yours.

Have a Gungnir get on a high create, so you can use Long Throw at any enemies
that come near.  Leave one other person behind to guard your statue, either
Urlan or Ursula.  Send your other two characters toward the enemy monument.  A
Bandit will be able to reach the enemy monument the fastest.  Ignore any
enemies you pass on the way, they'll probably ignore you too.  When you get to
the enemy statue, attack it a couple of times to destroy it.


FREEDOM FIGHT 1
Prize: 100D-300D
Fee: 25D
My team: Urlan, Ursula, Gungnir
Number of enemies: 3

This is a standard battle, you need to defeat all the enemies to win.  Long
Throw is effective for killing enemies at a distance, and you should be able to
kill them in one hit if you bought a good spear.  When the enemies come within
range of your close-range characters, use combos on them to take them out.


KING OF THE HILL
Prize: 100D-300D
Fee: 25D
My team: Urlan, Ursula, Bandit
Number of enemies: 3

This is a King of the Hill battle.  There will be a stack of crates in the
center of the arena.  If you stand on the top crate, your team will be awarded
a point every few seconds.  The team with the most points at the end of the
time limit will win.  You can also win by simply defeating all of the enemies.

Place your characters as close to the center of the arena as you can.  When the
battle starts, have everyone run towards the top crate.  You will probably be
able to get there before the enemy does.  Once you're on the top crate, use
combos to attack the enemies, who will be trying to kill whoever is on the top
crate.  You might even be able to kill them all before the time runs out, but
as long as you don't move off the top crate, you'll win.


FREEDOM FIGHT 2
Prize: 100D-300D
Fee: 25D
My team: Urlan, Ursula, Gungnir, Bandit
Number of enemies: 4

This is very similar to Freedom Fight 1.  You simply need to defeat all the
enemies to win.  Use Long Throw until the enemies reach you, then use combo
attacks at close range to finish them off.


POINTS BATTLE
Prize: 100D-300D
Fee: 25D
My team: Urlan, Ursula, Gungnir, Bandit
Number of enemies: 4

The object of a Points Battle is to deal more damage to the enemy than they can
deal to you.  Nobody actually loses HP, but the damage is kept track of by the
league officer.  The best way to win these battles is to find a weak enemy that
your weight class is strong against and attack them with combos.  Have Ursula
and Urlan find a Bandit or a Berserker to attack.  Use combos to deal the most
damage.  You can also have your Gungnir use Long Throw on any enemy.  With your
new equipment, you will deal far more damage to the enemy than they can deal to
you.
*******************************************************************************

*******************************************************************************
LIGHTNING CIRCUIT
Badges required: None
Prize: 200D-700D, Iron Buckler, Hand Axe, Patched Cape, Spiculum
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In this league, you're only allowed to use Light and Support characters.  If
you looked around the recruiting offices in Nordagh, you have the following
options available to you for Light and Support characters - Gungnir, Bandit,
Berserker, and Satyr.  You probably have a Gungnir or two and a Bandit.
Gungnirs are best for this league, especially if they have a good spear.  The
enemies in this league are random, but will consist of Support and Light
characters.


THUNDERHEAD 1
Prize: 500D-2500D, Quaddara, Death's Head Cap, Hooded Cloak, Cudgel
Fee: 25D
Required: Light, Support
My team: 2x Gungnir, Bandit
Number of enemies: 3

Have your Gungnirs use Long Throw at any enemy that comes within range.  Your
close range characters like Bandits won't be able to do much damage here, so
Long Throw is your best bet.  You should be able to kill an enemy with one hit.
Just be careful of the Gungnirs, which can change into a Bear.  This will
increase their HP by quite a bit, so it will take a couple of Long Throws to
kill them.


THUNDERHEAD 2
Prize: 500D-2500D, Quaddara, Death's Head Cap, Hooded Cloak, Cudgel
Fee: 25D
Required: Light, Support
My team: 2x Gungnir
Number of enemies: 3 teams of 2

This is the first multi-team battle you've seen.  Each enemy team is on its
own, so enemy teams can attack each other as well as attacking you.  The best
way to win this battle is to place 2 Gungnirs along the back where no enemies
are.  Have them use Long Throw at the enemies, who will be fighting each other.
Just keep using Long Throw until all the enemies are dead.


LORD OF THE CLOUDS
Prize: 100D-300D
Fee: 25D
Required: Light, Support
My team: 2x Gungnir
Number of enemies: 2 teams of 2

This is another King of the Hill battle.  You can do this battle two ways -
one is to have a Gungnir get on the top crate, then change into a Bear so you
can last the whole battle.  Another way that will probably be easier is to
stand off on the side while the enemies fight over the hill.  Use Long Throw at
the enemies until they're all dead.  There are only 4 of them, so you'll have
plenty of time to kill them all.


THUNDERHEAD 3
Prize: 100D-300D
Fee: 25D
Required: Light, Support
My team: 2x Gungnir, Bandit
Number of enemies: 3

There are crates around the arena forming a box.  Have your Gungnirs get on a
high crate and use Long Throw at the enemies.  Just keep your Gungnirs several
squares apart, so if an enemy gets to close to one of them, the other one can
kill the enemy (since Long Throw doesn't work at close range).


THUNDERHEAD 4
Prize: 100D-300D
Fee: 25D
Required: Light, Support
My team: 2x Gungnir, Bandit
Number of enemies: 3

There will be a line of crates in the middle of the arena.  For this battle,
it's best if you wait at the starting point and let the enemies come to you.
You can probably kill them all using Long Throw before they even reach you.


FAST MONEY
Prize: 100D-300D
Fee: 25D
Required: Light, Support
My team: 2x Gungnir, Bandit
Number of enemies: 3

This battle is almost exactly like Thunderhead 3, except there are some
treasure chests on the far side of the arena.  First, have your Gungnirs get on
the high crates and use Long Throw to kill at two of the enemies that come near
you.  If you want the chests, leave one enemy alive and send a Bandit to the
other side of the arena.  Just walk over the chests to collect them.  They
contain money and items.  After you get the chests, kill the remaining enemy
using Long Throw.

Now you're finished with all the leagues in Fliuch for now, until you get the
Circle of Elites qualification badge.  You've now done enough leagues to enter
the tournament.  Choose Tournament from the league office to fight in the
local tournament for Fliuch.

*******************************************************************************
FLIUCH TOURNAMENT
Prize: 500D-1500D, Maul, Cured Leather Shield, Sowilo
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the tournament battle.  The enemies are random, but will most likely be
Barbarians, Gungnirs, and Berserkers.


FREEDOM TOURNEY
Prize: 500D-1500D
Fee: 200D
My team: Urlan, Ursula, 2x Gungnir
Number of enemies: 4

There is a box of crates around the arena, so you can use them to your
advantage by getting on the top ones.  Have your Gungnirs use Long Throw from a
distance to kill one enemy each.  Urlan and Ursula can each use a combo attack
on an enemy and probably kill him.  This is a pretty easy battle, much like the
ones you've already fought.
*******************************************************************************

After the tournament, you need to go to another town.  Roanor is where Usus
took you when you first exited Fliuch, but you should go to Orin first to get
a badge there.  To get to Orin, take the road south from Fliuch.  When you get
to a fork in the road, take the west road to find Orin.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ORIN                                                                     {USN2}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Enter the Kingdom Open league first.

*******************************************************************************
KINGDOM OPEN
Badges required: None
Prize: Kingdom Open badge, Patched Cape, Death's Head Cap, Wicker Shield
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This league has a mixture of different types of battles.  The enemies are
randomly selected in each battle.  Remember to look at the enemies' weight
classes and choose your team accordingly.  Also remember that if there's more
than one enemy team, press X two or three times to view all the enemies.  If
you see a lot of hard enemies, just restart the battle.


CLASH OF KINGS
Prize: 500D-1500D
Fee: 100D
My team: Urlan, Ursula, 2x Gungnir
Number of enemies: 4

Your Gungnirs will be your main attackers here, probably.  Hopefully, you have
the best spear available at this time.  If you do, one Long Throw will probably
kill an enemy.  Have your Gungnirs kill as many enemies as they can, and your
other team members can go after some of the weaker enemies close up.


HILLTOP KINGDOM
Prize: 500D-1500D
Fee: 100D
My team: Ursula, 2x Gungnir
Number of enemies: 2 teams of 3

The hill is located in the middle of the bottom-left area of the field, so
place your characters around that area.  Have one of your characters climb onto
the top crate.  Then have your Gungnirs start using Long Throw to kill any
enemies that come near you.  Make sure you stay on the top crate.  After the
timer runs out or all the enemies are dead, you'll win.


TAX RELIEF
Prize: 150D-450D
Fee: 100D
My team: Urlan, 2x Gungnir
Number of enemies: 2 teams of 3
