Gladius - Strategy Guide (Page 11)

Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Gladius - Strategy Guide (Page 11).

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


FOREST KINGS
Prize: 200D-500D
My team: Ursula, Urlan, Iaar
Number of enemies: 3

You can place your characters right next to the enemies, so pick the right
weight classes to put next to the enemies.  Then just use combos on the first
turn to kill all the enemies.  Very easy.
*******************************************************************************

Now, you have a choice to make.  You're ready for the Nordagh regional
championship now.  However, you haven't completed the Circle of Elites leagues
yet.  If you complete Tier 1 and 2, you can do the Circle championship too.
This will get you some decent prizes.  However, if your EXP is maxed out and
you just want to move on, you can skip ahead to the Nordagh championship in
Orin.  If you want to complete the Circle leagues, head back to Fliuch.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FLIUCH REVISITED                                                         {USN7}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When you were first here, you didn't have the Circle Qualification badge, so
you couldn't enter the Circle of Elites Tier 1 here.  Do so now.

*******************************************************************************
CIRCLE OF ELITES TIER 1
Badges required: Circle Qualification
Prize: 100D-400D, Fliuch Circle 1 badge, Jaculum, Wicker Shield
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


POINTS BATTLE
Prize: 300D-600D
Fee: 50D
My team: Urlan, Iaar
Number of enemies: 3 teams of 2

Place Urlan next to a Berserker and Iaar next to a Barbarian.  Just use combos
on them until you run out of SP.  Then use affinity attacks/regular attacks to
restore some SP, then use combos again until the time runs out.  There are
crates around the outside of the arena that you can use if you want.


BASIC BATTLE
Prize: 300D-600D
Fee: 50D
My team: Urlan, Iaar, Gungnir
Number of enemies: 3

There is a stack of crates in the middle of the arena, so place your characters
closer to the middle than your enemies so they're higher up.  Then use combos,
Long Throw, and whatever else you want on your enemies to kill them.


RIVAL NATIONS
Prize: 300D-600D
Fee: 50D
My team: Urlan, Iaar, 2x Gungnir
Number of enemies: 4

Leave Iaar in the back to guard your monument.  Send your two Gungnirs out to
destroy the enemy monument.  Ignore all enemies you pass by on the way.  When
you get in range, just use Long Throw a couple times to destroy the monument.
*******************************************************************************

If you've beaten all the Tier 1 leagues now, enter the Tier 2 league here.

*******************************************************************************
CIRCLE OF ELITES TIER 2
Badges required: Mordare Circle 1, Fliuch Circle 1, Sloan Forest Circle 1,
                 Vargen Circle 1
Prize: 500D-1000D, Fliuch Circle 2 badge
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is Tier 2 of the Circle of Elites.  It's not really any different from
Tier 1.  Note that you only need one battle to win this league.

POINTS BATTLE
Prize: 100D-300D
Fee: 200D
My team: Iaar, Urlan
Number of enemies: 2 teams of 2, 1 team of 3

Very simple; just have Urlan attack a Berserker and Iaar attack a Barbarian
until the time runs out.  You'll win by a huge margin.


BASIC BATTLE
Prize: 1000D-2000D
Fee: 200D
My team: Iaar, Gungnir, Ursula, Urlan
Number of enemies: 4

You can place your characters right next to any enemy, so make sure you get the
right weight classes next to the right enemies.  Attack the enemies with combos
for a quick and easy win.


KING OF THE HILL
Prize: 300D-900D
Fee: 200D
My team: Iaar, Gungnir, Ursula, Urlan
Number of enemies: 4

Place Iaar four spaces down on the right side of the available area.  Then have
him move straight onto the top crate and use Defend until the time runs out.
*******************************************************************************

Now you're done in Fliuch for good.  Head to Mordare for the next Tier 2
league.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MORDARE                                                                  {USN8}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Enter the Circle of Elites Tier 2 battle here.

*******************************************************************************
CIRCLE OF ELITES TIER 2
Badges required: Fliuch Circle 1, Mordare Circle 1, Sloan Forest Circle 1,
                 Vargen Circle 1
Prize: 750D-2250D, Mordare Circle 2 badge, Banded Shield, Pike, Fur Hat,
       Soldier's Armband
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


VANDAL BATTLE
Prize: 300D-900D
Fee: 350D
My team: 2x Gungnir, Bear
Number of enemies: 3

Have your Gungnirs each use Long Throw on a barrel, and have another character
use a long-distance attack like Running Attack or Charge to get another barrel.
After you get three barrels, you'll win.


BASIC BATTLE
Prize: 300D-900D
Fee: 350D
My team: Ursula, Iaar, Gungnir
Number of enemies: 2 teams of 3

Place your characters in the far back.  This way, the enemies will probably
ignore you and kill each other.  You can attack with Long Throw and use combos
on any enemies that do happen to attack you.  When there is only one enemy team
left, use Long Throw and combos on the survivors until they are dead.


POINTS BATTLE
Prize: 300D-900D
Fee: 350D
My team: Urlan, Ursula, Iaar, Gungnir
Number of enemies: 4

You should have the hang of these points battles now.  Have Ursula/Urlan attack
a Berserker and Iaar attack a Barbarian.  You can also have a Gungnir use Long
Throw.  Do this until the time runs out.
*******************************************************************************

The next Tier 2 league is in Vargen.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VARGEN REVISITED                                                         {USN9}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*******************************************************************************
CIRCLE OF ELITES TIER 2
Badges required: Mordare Circle 1, Fliuch Circle 1, Sloan Forest Circle 1,
                 Vargen Circle 1
Prize: 750D-2250D, Vargen Circle 2 badge, Kard, Banded Shield, Horned Band,
       Leather Cape
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You only have to do one battle in this league in order to win.


BASIC BATTLE
Prize: 200D-500D
Fee: 500D
My team: Urlan, Iaar, Gungnir
Number of enemies: 2 teams of 3

You'll start off close to one team and far away from the other one, so you'll
probably end up fighting almost every enemy.  Place your characters next to the
enemies of the correct weight class and use combos to kill the nearby enemies.
The other team will arrive just as you're finishing off the first team.  Finish
them off, too.  If you can, try to keep an enemy from the first team alive when
the second team reaches you, so you won't have to deal with all of them at one
time.


KING OF THE HILL
Prize: 100D-300D
Fee: 500D
My team: Urlan, Iaar
Number of enemies: 3 teams of 2

It can be tough to get on the top rock first in this battle.  Place Iaar in the
top-left of the available area and have him run to the top rock.  If someone
else gets there first, reset and try again.  If you get lucky and are the first
to get on the rock, just use Defend until the time runs out.  You can also have
Urlan change into a Cat and use Growl to petrify some of the enemies.


VANDAL BATTLE
Prize: 200D-500D
Fee: 500D
My team: 2x Gungnir, Bear
Number of enemies: 3

Place one Gungnir on each side of the available area, and one other character
that has a Running Attack-like ability.  Use combos with your Gungnirs to
extend their range and get a couple of barrels.  Have your other character move
and use Running Attack to get another one.  If he can't make it to a barrel,
just use another combo with your Gungnir on the next round.  For some reason,
the battle doesn't end when all the barrels are broken.  You just have to wait
for the time to run out.
*******************************************************************************

Now go back to the Sloan Forest for the last Circle Tier 2 league.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SLOAN FOREST REVISITED                                                  {USN10}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*******************************************************************************
CIRCLE OF ELITES TIER 2
Badges required: Mordare Circle 1, Fliuch Circle 1, Sloan Forest Circle 1,
                 Vargen Circle 1
Prize: 750D-2250D, Sloan Forest Circle 2 badge
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


POINTS BATTLE
Prize: 100D-300D
Fee: 200D
My team: Urlan, Iaar
Number of enemies: 3 teams of 2

This is the same as the other points battles.  Have Urlan use combos on a
Berserker or Satyr while Iaar uses combos on a Barbarian.  Do this until the
time runs out.


BASIC BATTLE
Prize: 200D-500D
Fee: 200D
My team: Urlan, Gungnir, Iaar
Number of enemies: 2 teams of 3

Place your characters as far away from the enemies as possible so they'll be
attacking each other.  Kill any enemies that come your way, then wait for the
enemies to finish fighting.  When there is only one team left, wait for them to
some to you while using Long Throw, then finish them off with combos.


DOMINANCE
Prize: 200D-500D
Fee: 200D
My team: Urlan, Iaar, Bear, Gungnir
Number of enemies: 4

You'll start out very close to the crates, so you should be able to get on at
least two of them, probably all three.  Once you're on them, just use Defend
or something until the time runs out.  You can also attack your enemies and
probably just kill them all before the time runs out.
*******************************************************************************

Okay, now you're ready to go to Orin for the championships.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ORIN (CHAMPIONSHIP)                                                     {USN11}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you did the Circle of Elites Tier 2, enter the Circle Championship league.

*******************************************************************************
CIRCLE CHAMPIONSHIP
Badges required: Fliuch Circle 2, Mordare Circle 2, Sloan Forest Circle 2,
                 Vargen Circle 2
Prize: 20,000D-40,000D, Eow, Gebo, Ingwaz, Uruz
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There is only one battle here.  The enemies are random.


CHAMPIONSHIP
Prize: 300D-900D
Fee: 500D
My team: Urlan, Ursula, Gungnir, Iaar
Number of enemies: 4

Make sure you look at the enemies ahead of time and pick the right characters.
Have each character go after one enemy of the right weight class.  Use combos
and Long Throw for an easy win.
*******************************************************************************

Now, it's time for the Nordagh championship.  Choose Championship from the
league office to enter.

*******************************************************************************
NORDAGH REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP
Badges required: Kingdom Open badge, Free Peoples badge, Dreas Open badge
Prize: 20,000D-60,000D, Nordagh Champion badge, Flamberge, Fur Hat, Wolf Cowl,
       Wolfskin
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


CHAMPIONSHIP
Prize: 150D-450D
Fee: 100D
My team: Urlan, Iaar, Gungnir
Number of enemies: 3

There are only three enemies.  I'd suggest taking Iaar, a Gungnir, and Urlan or
Ursula.  Use Long Throw as your enemies approach you, then attack with combos
until they die.  This is pretty easy for a championship match.
*******************************************************************************

When you exit to the world map, you'll be given the option to leave for
Imperia.  Make sure you recruit everyone you want to recruit here and have done
all the leagues you want.  You won't be returning here for a long time.  When
you're sure you're ready, enter and exit a town and Usus will ask you to go to
Imperia.  After some cut-scenes, you'll go there.

*IMPORTANT*
Make absolutely sure that you complete the Sigi sidequest in Mordare.  If you
don't do it now, you will not be able to get the Hell's Fury skill later in
the game.

You may have also noticed Galverg walking down the road between Roanor and the
Sloan Forest.  If you talk to him several times, you'll fight him.  It's a very
tough wilderness fight, and there are no rewards for doing it, so I suggest you
just skip it.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
                                    IMPERIA                              {USII}
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Usus will take you to the town of Belfort to obtain your talisman.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BELFORT                                                                  {USI1}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

First of all, stop at the recruiting office.  Make sure you get a Centurion,
one of the best classes in the game.  Also stop at the shop.  There won't be
a whole lot of items for your Nordagh characters here, but upgrade as much
equipment as you can.  Then enter the talisman league.

*******************************************************************************
TALISMAN CHALLENGE
Badges required: None
Prize: 100D-300D, Imperia talisman
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


TALISMAN OF IMPERIA
My team: Ursula, Urlan, 2x Gungnir, Iaar
Number of enemies: 4

You'll be fighting Imperial enemies here, mostly Centurions.  Centurions will
normally pose a big threat to your Medium characters, but these enemies are at
pretty low levels.  Have each character kill one enemy.  Long Throw works well,
and combos too.  After one or two attacks for each enemy, you'll win the
battle and get your talisman.
*******************************************************************************

Now, you have to win one league in Belfort before you can leave.  Do the
Challenge of Lykos league.

*******************************************************************************
CHALLENGE OF LYKOS
Badges required: None
Prize: 250D-300D, Lupus' Master badge
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You'll be fighting Wolves in this league.  There are Greater Wolves in the last
two battles.  Medium characters work best against Wolves, so you can recruit a
Legionnaire if you want.  However, you probably won't want to keep him after
this league.


DINNER TIME
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Required: Ursula
Prohibited: Support - Archer, Gungnir, Peltast
My team: Urlan, Ursula, Legionnaire, Centurion
Enemies: 6x Wolf

There are six Wolves here, but you only need to defeat three of them.  Have
your Medium characters use combo attacks on them for best results.  One or two
combo attacks per Wolf will kill them.


DINNER TIME II
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Required: Ursula
Prohibited: Support - Archer, Gungnir, Peltast
My team: Ursula, Urlan, Legionnaire, Centurion
Enemies: 4x Wolf

You need to kill all the Wolves this time.  Place one character near each Wolf.
Then simply use combo attacks with each character until the Wolves are dead.
Each character can take care of one Wolf.


PACK MENTALITY
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Fee: 225D
Required: Ursula
Prohibited: Support - Archer, Gungnir, Peltast
My team: Ursula, Urlan, Legionnaire, Centurion
Enemies: 4x Wolf

This battle is just like the last one, except some of the Wolves are at a
higher level.  Just use the same strategy as last time to win.


DARK MOON
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Fee: 300D
Required: Ursula
Prohibited: Support - Archer, Gungnir, Peltast
My team: Ursula, Urlan, Centurion, Iaar
Enemies: Greater Wolf, 3x Wolf

At the start of the battle, there is one Greater Wolf in the arena.  When you
defeat it, three Wolves will appear.  The Greater Wolf isn't actually that
tough.  It will waste some turns using Snarl to cause you to retreat.  Attack
it with combos relentlessly until it dies.  Also, try not to put more than one
character on one side of the wolf, because it can attack both squares in front
of it.  When the Greater Wolf is dead, take care of the Wolves using combo
attacks.  Ursula and Urlan can each kill one, and you other two characters can
team up and kill the last one.


THE FRAY
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Fee: 300D
Required: Ursula
Prohibited: Support - Archer, Gungnir, Peltast
My team: Ursula, Urlan, Centurion, Iaar
Enemies: 2x Greater Wolf, 4x Wolf

There are two Greater Wolves at the start.  When you kill a Greater Wolf, two
Wolves will take its place.  Concentrate on one of the Greater Wolves and kill
it the same way you did in the last battle.  When the two Wolves appear, make
sure you kill them quickly.  They are actually more of a threat than the other
Greater Wolf because they're much faster.  Kill them with combos from Urlan and
Ursula.  When they are both dead, kill the other Greater Wolf.  It will be
easier this time because there's only one.  Then kill the last two Wolves with
combos.

Note: It may be easier if you wait on this battle until you can recruit a
Secutor in a different town.  Their Surprise Attack can deal massive damage to
a Greater Wolf if used from behind, which will make the battle go much easier.
*******************************************************************************

After you win this league, exit Belfort.  Usus will take you to Syrna.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYRNA                                                                    {USI2}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The league battles have been postponed, so just check in the recruiting office.
Make sure you get at least one Secutor, and a Murmillo.  You can also shop for
new equipment for your team.  When you try to exit Syrna, you'll see a scene
between Ursula and an Imperial gladiator.  After the scene, save your game and
exit Syrna.

You'll now have to fight two Summoners using Ursula and Urlan (the gladiator
you met in Syrna will help out).  Summoners themselves are weak, but they can
summon skeletons and beasts to fight with them, similar to an Undead Summoner.
Ignore anything they summon and just go for the Summoners themselves.  A combo
attack will kill a Summoner if you got some good equipment in Syrna.

After the battle, you'll go with Valens to his home near Pirgos.  He will join
your school, and you'll be out on the world map.

You can now go to any town in Imperia.  The town just north of Valens's home is
Pirgos.  West of Pirgos is Belfort, where you arrived in Imperia.  If you take
the road south of Belfort, you'll pass Caltha, where the High Tournaments are
held.  If you keep going east/south past Caltha, you'll come to a branch-off
that leads to Orus.  If you follow the road instead of turning off to Orus,
you'll come to Cro Beska.  Southwest of Cro Beska is Trikata, and west of
Trikata is Syrna.

Go to every town and check the recruiting offices.  You should definitely have
a Centurion, a Murmillo, and a Secutor or two.  You can also get a Samnite.
Sooner or later, you'll want to get a Channeler, but most of them require a
certain amount of popularity to recruit, so wait on them until you get enough
popularity.

You can finish up in Belfort if you want, but I would recommend doing a couple
of leagues in Cro Beska first.  Since you did the Challenge of Lykos league,
you can do a couple of leagues in Cro Beska that will get you a Minotaur on
your team.  He will be one of your best gladiators, so you should get him as
soon as you can.  So head over to Cro Beska.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CRO BESKA                                                                {USI3}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You need some badges to complete all the leagues here.  We're just here now for
two of them - Imperia Untamed and Mongrel Siege.  You need to do Imperia
Untamed first.

*******************************************************************************
IMPERIA UNTAMED
Badges required: Lupus' Master badge
Prize: 800D-1100D, Imperia Untamed badge, Collar of Force
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In this league, you'll be fighting various beasts and monsters.  Here are some
new enemies you'll encounter in this league:

Plains Cat: A Light beast, so defeat them the same as a Wolf.  They have a
            petrification attack that you should watch out for.

Scarab: A Heavy beast.  To defeat them, have a Heavy character use combos on
        them, or use Surprise Attack from behind with your Secutor.  Scarabs
        have a couple of poison attacks and some long-range attacks.

Scorpion: A Light beast.  Defeat them using combos from a Medium or Heavy
          character.  They have some very damaging attacks, so take them out
          first in any battle.

Mongrel: Mongrels are Light characters, and very weak.  A combo attack from a
         Medium character will probably kill one.  A Murmillo's Throw Shield
         works well, too.

Ogre: They are Heavy characters.  To beat them, use Surprise Attack from
      behind them and/or use combos from a Heavy character.


TOOTH & CLAW
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Ursula, Valens, Murmillo
Enemies: 3x Wolf

Notice that the arena has steps on it.  Whenever possible, try to get on the
step above your enemy.  Use Medium characters for this battle.  A couple of
combo attacks to each Wolf will end the battle.  Have your Murmillo use Throw
Shield, too.


ACTIVE SUBMISSION
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Fee: 500D
My team: Urlan, Ursula, Valens, Murmillo, Centurion
Enemies: 4x Wolf

You outnumber the enemies, so this should be easy.  Use Throw Shield and combo
attacks on the Wolves.  This is pretty much the same as the last battle, but
the odds are in your favor this time.


FEARSOME PACK
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Fee: 500D
My team: Centurion, Murmillo, Valens, Secutor
Number of enemies: 4

You'll be fighting mostly beasts here.  If there are any Scorpions, make sure
you kill them first.  Refer to the strategies at the beginning of this league
to beat the other enemies.


SWEEPING ATTACK
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Fee: 500D
My team: Valens, Murmillo, Centurion, 2x Secutor
Number of enemies: 3

You'll be fighting three stronger beasts here.  If you can place one of your
Secutors behind an enemy at the start of the battle, do so.  That way, you can
start out by using Surprise Attack from behind the enemy and possibly kill it
on the first turn.  Wait for the enemies to come to you (try to get on a step
above them), and use combo attacks until they are dead.


THE HUNT
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Fee: 500D
Required: Ursula, Urlan, Human
My team: Ursula, Urlan, Valens, Murmillo
Number of enemies: 4

You'll probably be fighting 4 Mongrels here, but you may encounter an Ogre.
You may want to restart if you get an Ogre, because Mongrels are much easier.
Just wait for them to come to you and use combos and Throw Shield to kill them
very quickly.


A DANGEROUS SPORT
Prize: 1000D-1500D
Fee: 500D
Required: Human
My team: Ursula, Urlan, Murmillo
Number of enemies: 5

You'll be fighting five beasts here, probably Wolves and Plains Cats.  Take
Medium characters here.  Try to be above your enemies, or at least on the same
level.  Have your Murmillo use Throw Shield a couple of times to take care of
an enemy.  Repeat for another enemy.  Have your other characters use combo
attacks.  Two combos will probably kill one enemy.  When you get down to one or
two enemies, you can team up and defeat them with combos.  Don't get surrounded
in this battle, or you will die.
*******************************************************************************

If you did well in the last league, you should have enough popularity to enter
the Mongrel Siege league.

*******************************************************************************
MONGREL SIEGE
Badges required: Imperia Untamed badge
Prize: 4500D-5000D, Mongrel Butcher badge
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In this league, you'll be fighting a combination of Mongrels and Ogres.


MONGREL SIEGE I
Prize: 5500D-6400D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Valens, Murmillo, Urlan, Ursula
Enemies: 4x Mongrel

Mongrels are very easy, and some of them will be at very low levels.  Have each
character take care of one Mongrel.  A combo or two should do the trick.


MONGREL SIEGE II
Prize: 5500D-6400D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
My team: Valens, Murmillo, Ursula
Number of enemies: 4

You'll probably fight 4 Mongrels here, but you may encounter an Ogre; restart
if you do.  Then use the same strategy to kill the Mongrels - just use combo
attacks and/or Throw Shield until they're all dead.


MONGREL SIEGE III
Prize: 9500D-10400D
Fee: 500D
Required: Ursula, 1 Light, 1 Heavy
My team: Ursula, Secutor, Centurion
Enemies: 3x Mongrel, Ogre

Try to place your Secutor behind the Ogre at the start of the battle, so you
can use Surprise Attack to kill him on the first turn.  Then have Ursula take
care of a Mongrel or two using combos, while your Heavy character takes care of
the last Mongrel.


MONGREL SIEGE IV
Prize: 9500D-10400D
Fee: 500D
Required: 1 of each affinity
My team: Valens, Secutor, Urlan, Taithleach
Enemies: 4x Mongrel

You need one character of each affinity here.  Hopefully, you have a Medium
character or two.  Use combos on the Mongrels for best results.  Surprise
Attack from the back also works well.  Again, don't get surrounded.


MONGREL SIEGE V
Prize: 9500D-10400D
Fee: 500D
Prohibited: Summoner, Undead Caster
Required: Urlan, Ursula
My team: Urlan, Ursula, Centurion, Secutor
Enemies: 2x Ogre, 3x Mongrel

Use Surprise Attack on one of the Ogre's backs to hopefully kill him on the
first turn.  Have Urlan and Ursula kill two of the Mongrels using combos.  Use
Surprise Attack on the other Ogre too, if you can get behind him.  You can have
your other character help with the Ogre, or kill the last Mongrel.
*******************************************************************************

Now that you have the Mongrel Butcher badge, go to the shop here for a
sidequest.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *SIDEQUEST* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Talk to Scotia in the shop and ask him if there are any interesting battles.
He'll tell you about the Historian's battle coming up in 7 days.  Remember
which day it is, and make sure you're back here in Cro Beska on the 7th day.

When you get here 7 days later, there will be an extra league.  Enter the
battle in it.  You're required to use Imperial characters.  Take Valens, a
Murmillo, and Centurion, and one other character, like a Secutor.  You'll be
fighting two Satyrs and two Minotaurs, who will be attacking you and the
citizens, who will run to the bottom, probably.  Kill the Satyrs first using
combos and Throw Shield.  The Minotaurs are harder.  They're Heavy fighters,
and they have some very powerful attacks.  Have your Centurion use combos on
one of them.  They have an ability that renders Surprise Attack ineffective,
but you can use it anyway for a little damage.  Focus on one Minotaur at a time
and you'll do fine.

After the battle, one of the characters will join you; either Pan the Satyr or
Langston the Minotaur.  Make sure Langston joins you.  If he doesn't, reset and
try again.

Note: If you don't want to restart the battle to get Langston, here's an easier
way.  Enter the battle with a full school.  After the battle, go out to the
world map, expel someone, and save your game.  Then go into Cro Beska and one
of the characters will join you.  If it's not Langston, reset and try again.
This way, you only have to do the battle one time.

Now that you've got Langston (or are waiting for the 7 days to pass), head back
to Belfort and finish up the leagues there.

There are three more leagues here to finish.

REGIMENTAL CHALLENGE
Badges required: None
Prize: 500D-750D
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In this league, you'll be fighting a combination of Samnite, Centurions, and
Legionnaires.  Samnites and Centurions are easily killed by using Surprise
Attack from behind once or twice.  Legionnaires can be killed with combos from
Heavy characters.  Also, use the pits to your advantage by attacking the
enemies while they're in the pits.  Also remember that you can restart the
battle to get easier enemies if you're fighting too many Centurions.
