Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Gensou Suikoden 5 - Strategy Guide (Page 06).

After recruiting  Nakula and Sagiri, head back to the Headquarters and take a 
rest in your bed. Watch the scene.

Head downstairs and speak with Luserina to change party members, and then 
speak with Viki and she teleports you to the World Map outside of the Mountain 
Path.  head southwest and enter Beaver Lodge.

=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+

Required Party: Hero, Lyon
Suggested Level: 35
Enemies: Assassin
Boss: Dolph
Items: None
Characters: Fuwalafuwalu, Maroon, Murad (if you didn't get him in Lelcar)

There will be random encounters in Beaver Lodge this time.  The enemies drop 
rare Crazed Orbs as well, so you may want to spend some time fighting here.

From where you gain control, follow the northwestern path until you reach the 
Elder's house, which you should enter. Watch a scene.

***************************************************************
Boss: Dolph
Rewards: Twin Tactic, Resurrection Piece1

Dolph is very very fast, and will attack before your characters.  He tends to 
attack Lyon most of the time, so you will need to focus on keeping her alive. 
Fortunately, Dolph is alone this time, so you wil not need to worry about area 
of effect attacks, and just kill him with whatever attacks you have that are 
strongest at the moment. 

Just note that Dolph is extremely strong versus magical attacks, and he'll 
probably take around half the damage he would normally when you attack him 
with them. So physical attacks will work better than magic in this battle, 
though Dolph does have a higher evasion rate than a normal boss. Still, strong 
Lightning magic like Furious Blow will do decent damage, probably over 800 per 
casting.
***************************************************************

Watch the scene. Exit the Elder's house for another scene.

Now you need to head back to your Headquarters.

Required Party: Hero, Lyon, Sialeeds, Fuwalafuwalu
Shops: Depending on characters you have recruited.
Items: None
Characters: Isabel, Mathias

Head to the War Room for a scene. You awaken in your room.

--------------------------------
Character: Isabel
Location: Estrise/Headquarters
Prerequisite: None.
Time to Recruit: After the second set of events at Beaver Lodge.
How to Recruit:
Head to Estrise and walk towards Babbage's shop in the southeastern corner of 
town.  Watch a scene. Exit Estrise, and head back to your Headquarters.
When you arrive back, Boz will be standing near Luserina.  If he's not there, 
try moving to another area and then coming back, or wait until the next story 
event progresses.  Speak with Boz and Luserina for a scene (you need to have 
seen the scene about Rainwall being taken for this to occur.)
Now, make a party with 2-3 people and head over to Haud Village.  If you do 
this correctly, Luserina will comment about you going to Haud with "So few 
people."
You'll find Euram near the exit to Haud (to the east.) Watch a scene.
Fight off the six Barows Soldiers here, and Isabel joins you if you choose to 
fight evil together.
--------------------------------
Mathias joins along with Isabel.
--------------------------------
*Note* Mathias comes with a rare Cyclone Rune that you may want to remove and 
put on a better mage character.

When you're ready, head to the War Room.  It's time to head to the Island 
Nations!

Teleport to Estrise.  If you have never been to Estrise, it is east of 
Rainwall.  To get to Rainwall, take the boat from your Headquarters to the 
East Wharf.

Shops: Appraisal, Rune, Item, Armor, Inn, Trading Post, Physical Training, 
Magical Training, Blacksmith (Level 7)
Items: Mega Medicine3, Silence Orb, Rage Piece, Cyclone Piece, True Men Tactic 
(if you didn't get them before)
Characters: None

If you haven't obtained all of the items in Estrise, now is a good chance to 
do so. 

When you are ready to continue with the game, head all the way north on either 
side of the screen and you'll find another screen.  This screen has a large 
ship on it. Watch the scene.

Speak with Boz when you're ready to leave.

=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+

Required Party: Hero, Lyon, Georg
Enemies: Pirate Captain, Pirate Lackey
Shops: Appraisal, Rune, Item, Blacksmith, Inn, Trading Post, Blacksmith (Level 
10)
Items: Voice Set 3, Window Set 7, Divine Right Epic, Striking Tactic
Characters: Chisato (Part 1), Bernadette

Watch the scene.  When you regain control, head up the stairs to the north and 
follow the western path until you see a large tree near the Inn.  Near this 
tree you'll find a very well hidden chest (it's easier to see if you bring the 
camera in with R1) that contains the VOICE SET 3.  Continue north to the next 
screen.

In the main town, head east, and speak with all the children standing together 
to the northeast.  Watch a scene. Speak with Chisato and ask her to join.  
Though she will not, it will open the events for recruitment later on.  Head 
up the stairs and speak with Skald to the northeast. Bernadette joins your 
party. Head north up the stairs until you reach the Lighthouse.  Before 
entering though, head west and you'll find two chests on the outer edge of the 
Lighthouse.  They contain the WINDOW SET 7 and the DIVINE RIGHT EPIC.  Enter 
the Great Lighthouse.

Head up three sets of stairs in the Lighthouse, and you'll find two chests, 
which contain the STRIKING TACTIC and a STONE OF SPEED. Head up the last 
stairs for a short scene. Now you need to exit the Lighthouse and circle 
around the western edge to find the Ladder.  Climb it, and enter the door at 
the top.  Watch the scene.  You are forced into an event battle with the 
Pirate Captain and his 5 Pirate Lackey's (with some extra special music to top 
it off!).  This battle should be approached like most bosses, with strong area 
spells to take down the stronger Captain first and then working on the weaker 
foes.  Try to kill as many foes as possible on the first round to prevent your 
party from taking excess damage.

Watch the scene. Exit the Lighthosue and enter the main town. Bernadette joins 
you as a Star of Destiny. Take your ship back to Estrise. Watch the scene, and 
head back to your Headquarters.

Head up to the War Room.  Watch the scenes.

At this point, there is quite a bit of recruiting that you can do, because 
your Headquarters has expanded and certain events have progressed.

Let's go recruiting!

=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+

Characters: Miroon, Moroon, Meroon, Byakuren, Babbage, Lu, Retso, Shun-Min, 
Chisato, Nelis, Yahr

--------------------------------
Character: Miroon
Location: Tricolor Inn, Yashuna Village
Prerequisite: Muroon and Maroon
Time to Recruit: After the expansion of Headquarters
How to Recruit:
Speak with Miroon in the Tricolor Inn in Yashuna Village with Maroon and 
Muroon (the two Beavers) in your party. Watch the scene. Choose to help Miroon 
and she will join your party and tell you how to get to the dungeon. There's a 
hidden door to the northeast of this room to reach the dungeon; you can not 
see it, but if you press against the wall you will find the door. Enter the 
dungeon.

Follow the path north for a short scene, and continue north through the next 
door. Now follow the path all the way east and through the door for a scene. 
Allow Miroon to join you.

Note: The mini-boss in this area is called a King Mantik.  He is quite nasty 
at low levels, but he drops some Iron Fists, a Fire Sealing Piece, and some 
Crab, as well as 18,000 Potch and 40 Party SP. 
--------------------------------

--------------------------------
Character: Moroon
Location: Beaver Lodge
Prerequisite: Muroon, Maroon, and Miroon
Time to Recruit: After the expansion of Headquarters
How to Recruit:
Head to Beaver Lodge with Muroon, Maroon, and Miroon in your party. Speak with 
Meroon (not Moroon) near the south end of the screen.  She whines about 
wanting to meet someone.  Now head to Baska Mines and speak with Moroon twice 
or so.  head back to Beaver Lodge and speak with Meroon again.  Tell her that 
you have spoken with Moroon and she will ask you to take her to him.  Head 
back to Baska Mines and speak with Moroon. He joins your party. So head back 
to Beaver Lodge for another scene.
--------------------------------
Meroon joins along with Moroon.
--------------------------------

--------------------------------
Character: Byakuren
Location: Headquarters
Prerequisite: Genoh, Levi
Time to Recruit: After the expansion of Headquarters
How to Recruit:
After the expansion of Headquarters, run around to the farthest lower level 
with Genoh in your party.  You'll encounter a large Snake. Fight her off, and 
if Genoh is in your army she will join you. Byakuren is a missable character, 
as the only chance to recruit her is once every time the Headquarters expands, 
so be careful when running along the lower levels of your Headquarters!
You can also get Byakuren is Levi is in your army.
--------------------------------

--------------------------------
Character: Babbage
Location: Estrise
Prerequisite: Sorensen
Time to Recruit: After the expansion of Headquarters
How to Recruit:
With Sorensen in your party, after the Headquarters expands, head to the room 
called "Gears" in your Headquarters. After the scene in here, head to Esrise 
and speak with Babbage in his workshop. Watch a scene with Babbage and Lu in 
here. Babbage joins your party. Head back to your Headquarters and bring 
Babbage to "Gears" for another scene. 
Now you need to wait for a while for Babbage to complete his work.  Come back 
later and he will join you, along with creating the elevator.
--------------------------------

--------------------------------
Character: Lu
Location: Estrise
Prerequisite: Sorensen and Babbage
Time to Recruit: After the expansion of Headquarters
How to Recruit:
After recruiting Babbage, head back to Babbage's workshop in Estrise. Bring 
Sorensen to the workshop to speak with her and she will ask you to find a 
gear.  Find the gear near the door (it's somewhat annoying) and Lu will join 
your army.
--------------------------------

--------------------------------
Character: Retso
Location: Raftfleet
Prerequisite: Subala
Time to Recruit: After the expansion of Headquarters.
How to Recruit:
Head to the Raftfleet Inn and speak with Retso. Ask him to come to the castle 
and he declines.  Head back to your Headquarters and play Subala's fishing 
mini-game.  Catch fish until, eventually, you catch a rare fish called 
a "Strange Fish."  When you exit out after the match, Subala will comment 
about the fish. Head back to Retso with this item in your posession. 
Choose "Can you have a look at this fish?" when you speak with him for a scene.
Now head back to Headquarters with Shun-Min and Retso in your party. Exit to 
the outdoor area and a scene plays.
--------------------------------
Shun-Min joins along with Retso.
--------------------------------

--------------------------------
Character: Chisato
Location: Nirva
Prerequisite: Bernadette must be in the party
Time to Recruit: After the expansion of Headquarters.
How to Recruit:
After seeing the initial scene with Chisato on Nirva Island (and asking her to 
join) speak with her again with Bernadette in your party, and after your 
Headquarters have expanded (you can get back to Nirva island through the boat 
at Estrise.) Near the exit of Nirva (by the boat) you'll see a scene with 
Sailors and Pirates.  After the scene, head back and speak with Chisato, 
asking for her help again. Watch a scene, go speak with her again, and she 
joins your party. Head back to the Headquarters and she officially joins you.
--------------------------------

--------------------------------
Character: Yahr
Location: Nirva
Prerequisite: Bernadette must be in the party
Time to Recruit: After the expansion of Headquarters.
How to Recruit:
Head to Nirva Island with Bernadette in your party. First, apparoach the ship 
to the west for a short scene about "Rune Cannons" (which may be a familiar 
term to you. . .) Now, go to the Inn and enter the side room.  You'll find two 
characters in here, Nelis and Yahr. After the scene, head back to your boat 
and board it as if you were about to leave Nirva. Watch a short scene, and 
allow them to come with you.

On your way home, watch a scene. Choose to head towards the Light.

You gain control in a Ship Graveyard. Save at the Save Point, and continue 
north. At the intersection, go east and open the chest at the end for a WATER 
RING.  Head back west, and follow the path all the way into the ship.

Once inside the ship, follow the path north until you reach an intersection 
near the end. Head north through the visible door, and open the chest in here 
for some TAIRA ARMOR.  Head back to the previous room and exit east through 
a "hidden" door, that's not really hidden.

Once outside again, head south and a scene plays.

***************************************************************
Boss: Dagon
Rewards: Water Orb, Flowing Leather, Fire Sealing Piece1, Stone Of Luck

This should be a familiar enemy to some Suikoden players. This "Dagon" is 
quite weak towards any type of magical based attacks, and so that is what you 
should use against him. Fire and Lightning Magics work particularly well, even 
from a character with low magical stats. Each casting of the level 4 spells 
should do at least 1500 damage.  If you keep up with a constant barrage of 
magical attacks this boss will not be too difficult.

You will probably be around level 40 or higher at this point (depending on 
what point of the game you are doing this quest at) and even at level 40 you 
are overpowered for this boss, and the entire area as a whole. If you have a 
solid tank, do not expect the boss to hurt you at all, since he tends to 
prefer physical attacks.

This is more of a Mid Boss.  Just note that you should not use all of your MP 
in this battle, since there will be random encounters to deal with after this 
fight.
***************************************************************

Watch a scene. Head southwest onto the next ship.  Head east, and into the 
next ship.  In here, continue east and open the chest for a ROBE OF DESTINY.  
Now head south through another "hidden" door.  There's another chest out here 
that contains some PALE MOON BOOTS.  Go back inside, and take the eastern 
passage.

Ouside again, watch a scene. Head north and into the next ship.  In here, head 
east and enter the first door to the north.  Open the chest in here for a rare 
BLINKING RUNE PIECE.  Exit, and continue east up the stairs.  On the far deck, 
head west and open the chest for the WINDOW SET 8.  Now head all the way east 
for a scene.  During this scene, be VERY carful.  
***
You MUST choose "It must be destroyed!" to recruit Nelis and Yahr, or you will 
miss them forever!! As tempting as the other answer is (for entertainment 
purposes), it will be impossible to recruit these two characters if you answer 
it.
***
After the events, you head back to Nirva Island. Ask them to join you during 
the scene and they will accept.  If you made a mistake during the previous 
scenes and they will not join you when you ask, you need to reload, as you 
have missed them PERMANENTLY.
--------------------------------
Nelis joins along with Yahr.

Characters: None

After you have recruited all of these characters (that was quite a few!)  It's 
time to continue on with the game.  Head to the War Room for a scene with 
Lucretia.  The better answer here is . . . . (as it lengthens the scene, 
though it does not influence anything else.)

After the scenes, head back up to the War Room. Select that you're ready to go 
when ready.

                                   Doraat
=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+

Required Party: Hero, Lyon, Zerase
Suggested Level: 40
Enemies: Godwin Soldier (Bow), Godwin Soldier (Sword)
Bosses: Alenia, Godwin Soldierx5 (Sword)
Shops: None (yet)
Items: Quad Tactic, Window Set 6, Pale Moon Casque, Blue Gate Piece, Crane 
Wing Tactic, Flame Ring, Guardian Chain, Blinking Rune Piece, Triple Harmony 
Epic
Characters: None

You first need to get into Doraat, and so you must fight your way.


***************************************************************
War Battle 6: -Doraat Siege-
Rewards: (Victory+) 18,000 Potch, Guardian Scarf
Battle Goal: Get [Hero] to Doraat.
Defeat Conditions: Hero or the Dahak are destroyed.
Foes: Archerx2 (HP:200), Infantry (HP:200), Spearx2 (HP:200), ArcShip x2 
(HP:300), Ram (HP:300), ComShip(HP:300), Alenia (HP:300)

This will be a somewhat difficult battle. There are many enemies, and your 
goal is not to kill them all, rather to get your Hero into the path of Doraat 
itself.  Make sure you save the Dawn Rune until you are close to Doraat so 
that you can push back any enemies that surround your Hero's unit.  Also, give 
the Hero as many Charges as you can, so that he can reduce the damage he takes 
in case someone attacks him.  Lastly, and most importantly, have your ground 
troops STAY AWAY FROM THE WATER!  The ships around Doratt will fire at you on 
the land if you get too close to them.

Like the batle in Lelcar, this battle takes place in both Land and Sea.  Also 
like the battle in Lelcar, you can completely ignore the sea battle if you so 
desire, but it is not reccomended.

After a few rounds, a short scene plays.  One group of Archers guarding Doraat 
is destroyed, so you get a free 200 deaths.

Keep your party together, but keep them all to the north somewhat, while your 
Hero's group is to the south.  The goal is to draw the troops away from 
Doraat, so if you can do that you're good.  This is sometimes difficult 
though, so you may just have to charge in there with your Hero and have a few 
backup characters and hope for the best. Just remember that you have the Dawn 
Rune and it will clear a nice path for you  when you need to enter Doraat.

As you actually enter Doraat, Alenia uses a last ditch attack to try and get 
you away, but it does not work. Continue the battle as you were normally.
***************************************************************

The journey through Doratt is going to be rather rough. Bring your best party 
members along with plenty of medicines to keep yourself alive. Also bringing a 
character like Murad to heal you after battle will help considerably. 

Note: There are a lot of items in Doraat. . .But getting them now is a pain in 
the ass because of the large amount of random encounters.  If you don't want 
to get them, you should come back later (after the events here) to obtain 
them, as some are rather good.

Head through the door to the southeast (its somewhat hidden).  Follow the long 
path east, southeast, and up the stairs here for the QUAD TACTIC. Continue 
east and follow the path all the way (its ~very~ long) for the WINDOW SET 6. 
Now head All the way back to where your allies are waiting (another long walk -
_-).  Once you reach them, head through the northeastern door and follow the 
path through the town. There are two chests to the far northwest, which 
contain a PALE MOON CASQUE and a rare BLUE GATE PIECE. At the very far south 
of this area (near the water) you'll find another chest containing the CRANE 
WING TACTIC. Northeast of this you'll find a FLAME RING. Head back north and 
enter the large building, which seems to be the Lord's manor (AKA the Fortress)

Watch a scene in here.

***************************************************************
Boss: Alenia, Godwin Soldierx5 (Sword)
Rewards: Red Ribbon, ?Painting

Like most battles, there are many foes in this.  You also must deal with 
Alenia, who wields the powerful Twilight Rune.  The main difficulty with the 
Twilight Rune are the status effects that it can cause. Have your Hero ready 
to cast his "Time of Wakening" whenever necessary.

Like always, cast as many area-of-effect spells as possible on the first 
round. This should hopefully kill all, or most of, the Godwin Soldiers around 
Alenia.  Their combined damage will be what kills you, rather than Alenia 
herself. Note that Alenia is strong versus magic though, so after killing off 
the Godwin soldiers you may have to rely on physical attacks to kill her. Fire 
magic and the Dawn Rune are the only magics that seem to work well on her. . . 
Fortunately, Alenia does not have any particular resistence to physical 
attacks, so that should be the best way to take her down. 
***************************************************************

Watch a short scene. When you regain control, head through the western door.   
Head south, and enter the door just south of the stairs.  There's a chest in 
here that contains a GUARDIAN CHAIN.  Head back to the main room (where you 
fought Alenia) and head through the eastern door. There is a door hidden to 
the north of the stairs (hard to see) but if you go through it, there are two 
chests. Open them for a BLINKING RUNE PIECE and the TRIPLE HARMONY EPIC. Head 
upstairs here, and follow the path back downstairs. Approach the door for a 
scene (so sad ; ;)

---------------------------------------
Duel 5: Loyalty -Hero vs Miakis-

Attack: Okay...Here I come.
Attack: Ow, ow! Now it's my turn!
Attack: Hey that really hurt, now you're going to get the same!
Attack: No! I wont give up yet!
Special: Prince, can you handle this one?
Special: Ouch that hurt, I'll get you this time!
Special: Time for you to go beddy-bye!
Special: Now I'm going to get really serious!
Defense: Ow ow, you've really got your eyes open prince!
Defense: Hey that really hurt, are you trying to make me cry?
Defense: All right prince, show me how good you've gotten
Defense: I guess I've got to be a little more careful too. 

Miakis is a rather predictable enemy in the Duel, and she does not have any 
particular pattern of attack.  She is rather balanced, so just make sure to 
watch her carefully.
---------------------------------------

Watch a scene.

Note:  If you have Jeane at this point, there is a special scene you will see 
with she and Zerase.  It is. . .rather interesting.

Another Note: Once you finish all the events surrounding Doratt, you can 
teleport back there and exit.  There is a DoReMi Elf wandering around outside 
the walls.

Characters: Levi, Bergen, Norma, Ernst, Gavaya, Raven

Note:  If you never recruited Wilhelm and Mueller before, this will be your 
VERY last chance to recruit them, so make sure that when you speak with them, 
bring Viki. They are in Doraat.
Also, if you missed your armorer, Mohsen, you can recruit him in Doraat as 
well, as long as you buy 100,000 Potch worth of items from him.

--------------------------------
Character: Levi
Location: The "Big Hole"
Prerequisite: Having spoke with him once before
Time to Recruit: After taking Doraat.
How to Recruit:
Head to the "Big Hole" northwest of Rainwall and speak with Levi.  You'll need 
to have spoken with him before to get him to join. He will join you 
automatically after the battle with Doraat if you speak with him.
--------------------------------
Bergen joins along with Levi.
--------------------------------

--------------------------------
Character: Norma
Location: Raftfleet
Prerequisite: Having recruited Levi, and having seen the scene with Norma and 
Ernst in Stormfirst at the very beginning of the game.
Time to Recruit: After taking Doraat.
How to Recruit:
First, and most important, you need to have spoken with Norma at the beginning 
of the game, during the Sacred games at Stormfist.  When you're about to leave 
Stormfist, she will ask you if you know a great Mage, and you can say you only 
know some Queen's Knights, but she thanks you for the gesture. She then 
leaves.  After taking Doraat, you'll find Norma in Raftfleet. Head to the Inn, 
and enter one of the two rooms, where you'll find Norma. Ask her to join you, 
and then come back with Levi in your party. After the scenes take Norma and 
Ernst to your castle and they will join you permanently.
--------------------------------
Ernst joins along with Norma.
--------------------------------

--------------------------------
Character: Gavaya
Location: Raftfleet
Prerequisite: Norma, Faylen, Viki
Time to Recruit: After taking Doraat.
How to Recruit:
Bring Norma, Faylen, and Viki to speak with Gavaya in Raftfleet. With all 
three in your party, watch a scene. Gavaya is near the Inn, and where Oboro's 
ship is/was. He joins you automatically.
--------------------------------

--------------------------------
Character: Raven
Location: Sable/Headquarters
Prerequisite: Oboro, Egbert, Taylor, and Marina
Time to Recruit: After taking Doraat.
How to Recruit:
Head to Sable and speak with the Lord, Solis, to hear of his problems. Head 
back to Headquarters and speak with Oboro. Choose to try and catch him again. 
Now, go speak with Egbert (he's in the Inn) and he gives you the Family Tree 
Chart.  Head back and speak with Oboro. Watch the scene.
Go to the Inn (at the Headquarters) and spend the night. Watch another scene, 
and now you must find "Crow". Watch the scenes, and "Crow" is introduced as 
Raven. Choose to keep him in jail. 
After the scenes, head down to the empty room beneath the Inn (it's 
near "Lelcar") and speak with Raven. Ask him to join you, and after a scene he 
will.

Required Party: Hero, Lyon
Shops: Depending on characters you have recruited.
Items: None
Characters: None

When you're ready to continue on with the game, go to the War Room.

Now you must select three parties, one with Roy and Zerase, one with Kyle, and 
one with the Hero, Miakis, Sialeeds, and Lyon.  The Roy and Zerase party will 
be the easiest party, since Zerase is a naturally overpowered character, so 
you do not need to send your strongest characters to this party.  Send a few 
strong characters with your hero though, since his battle will be rather 
rough.  Kyle will probably have the hardest battle of the three parties, so 
you should send most of your strongest characters with him.
You won't need more then one more mage in Roy's group, so send them all with 
the Hero and Kyle.  In the Hero's battle, magic will not be too useful, since 
the boss is very much a tank-like character. So send your mages with Kyle and 
your physical attackers with the Hero.

Watch the scenes (speaking to Kyle during the interlude gives you a. . .rather 
entertaining view of Sialeeds.)

***************************************************************
War Battle 7: -New Queen's Campaign-
Rewards: (Victory+) 20,000 Potch, Spun Silver Armor
Battle Goal: Get Roy's unit to Lymsleia's position.
Defeat Conditions: Roy's unit is destroyed.
Foes: Archerx2 (HP:200), Cavalryx3 (HP:200), Spearx2 (HP:200), Zahhak 
(HP:300), Alenia (HP:300), Lymsleia (HP:300)

Rather then your Hero's unit, Roy's unit will be the one playing the key role 
in this battle. Once again, the goal is not too destroy the enemies, but to 
get Roy up to Lym and the Knights.  What you should do is have everyone but 
one or two units (Roy's and another for backup) head north while Roy stays 
somewhat south or in the middle area.  Once all of the enemies charge your 
main force, then Roy needs to make a run right through the center to the Queen.

This battle is quite easy compared to some of the previous battles, but note 
that you will need to get your hands dirty this time.  Fortunately, pretty 
much every enemy drops a goody, and you will WANT to kill the foes here, as 
you get rare items like Guardian Gloves, Rage Pieces, Mother Earth Pieces, and 
so on.

The battle ends once Roy gets within atack range of Zahhak and Alenia.
***************************************************************

Watch the scene. You are thrust into three consecutive boss battles, dwhich 
characters depending on whom you chose in the earlier scene with Lucretia.

***************************************************************
Boss: Alenia, Elite Soldierx3 (Sword), Elite Soldierx2 (Bow)
Rewards: None

Because of the ever-so-powerful (overpowered) Zerase, this battle is 
exceedingly easy.  Normally, I tend not to use her because she is so 
overpowered, but because she is a required member in this battle, you will 
have no problem.  Use Zerase's Meteor Shower for the first few rounds to take 
down nearly.

Note that Alenia is quite a bit more dangerous this time, and will 
dodge/counter most every physical attack you do to her.  So you'll need strong 
magic spells to actually damage her effectively. Unfortunately, she takes 
around half damage from magical attacks this time, as well.  She is quite a 
tank.  She also uses Fire Magic this time around, which is not the most 
dangerous, unless you have a lot of low levelled characters in this battle 
party.  If this is true, the key to winning is keeping Zerase alive.  Having 
two or three mages will help considerably as well.
***************************************************************

Watch a short scene and the battle changes to Kyle.

***************************************************************
Boss: Zahhak, Elite Soldierx3 (Sword), Elite Soldierx2 (Bow)
Rewards: None

Like Alenia, Zahhak will dodge and counter most physical attacks, so you'll 
need to get rid of him with magic.  Also like Alenia, he is a serious brute 
and takes little damage from magic, and normal damage from physical atacks, so 
you have the worst of both worlds to deal with. I suggest physical attacks, or 
level 4 spells, since anything less then a level 4 spell will barely dent 
Zahhak.

Of the three battles in the Queen's Campaign, this is probably going to be the 
hardest, because you have no overpowered characters to back you up.  Slaughter 
all of the foes with area spells (Wind, Lightning, and Fire) on the first 
round so that you take less damage.  Hopefully you have around 3 mages with 
you, so that you will be able to minimize the amount of damage you take on 
this first round.

If this party is not strong, expect a few deaths.
***************************************************************

The scene changes to the Hero.

***************************************************************
Boss: Galleon, Elite Soldierx5 (Sword)
Rewards: Rage Sword Orb

Depending on how you played, this battle will either be quite easy, or a pain 
in the butt.  Because most of your party is chosen for you, you are rather 
stuck with your choice and battle strategy.  Hopefully you were able to get 
Miakis at least a Killer Rune or a Magic Drain Rune (if not a Killer), to 
improve her usefulness before this battle, as well as sharpen her weapons.

Quite simply, Galleon is a tank.  He takes very little damage from physical 
and magical attacks.  He also has his Elite Soldier's to back him up, so 
you'll need to get rid of them with area attacks before anything else.  When 
it is just Galleon, you will need to decide what your strongest attacks are 
and pummel him with them.  Expect this battle to last some time, since Galleon 
has high HP along with the defense and magical defense. Also, if you have not 
spent the time recruiting every character and getting the best gear possible, 
you may need to resort to physical attacks near the end of the battle and hope 
for the best.

Watch the scene. Sialeeds and Lyon leave your party.
