Um. Okay, do you guys think Sill will need to serve tea to Rance and his tactician while they have strategy sex time? Additionally, do you think his tactician will need to serve tea to Rance while he has strategy sex time with Sill?
>>
>>173473649
Rance will get Kanami to give him a blowjob as he discusses strategy and Sill serves tea made by Sheila.

Shizuka will be playing hide and seek with Reset.

I feel like the tittymonster ends up being the main heroine in 'Beat' titles. And kind of boring too. Narika wasn't a whole lot better, but Haruka was pretty bland.

But with tits you get paizuri. Blue.

Isn't daiteikoku the one with the catchy theme song on youtube, and the most modern?

pic related, TGM's character CG
>>
>>173481426
Basically its the latest in the Dai series yes, but it had problems like being overhyped yet weaker in gameplay

Advertisements boasted about one of the biggest amounts of text in an Alicesoft game, pretty characters and all that, but gameplay was worse than the previous two, and most of the text were filler
>>
>>173481426
Looking forward to it.
>>
>>173478414
Yellow was worst girl in BBH, so I'll bet that she's best girl in this game.

If there's no yellow though, then blue. Haughty types are the most fun to break and corrupt.

>>173479345
Narika was good in her kichiku routes in my opinion. Or maybe I just like breaking the tsun out of tsunderes.

Haruka was bland overall, I agree. Except in one of Narika's kichiku endings when she becomes completely vengeful; that was pretty cool.

I think blue will be better by default if they give her a haughty personality rather than a subservient bodyguard personality, but we'll see.

>>173486423
With the mod, I assume since you are changing the sprites and code in general, it will have to be installed on a different copy of SR if you don't want to lose your original progress.

Also, will the mod's functionality be affected by current progress in SR or won't it matter. (Guessing the latter)
>>
>>173490728
It will definitely have to be on a different copy of SR

>>173490728
I haven't tested it thoroughly, but you should be able to revert. You just have to rename one of the assets files to Rance7GA an delete the new asset files, and then replace the modified ain file with the original and it should work. I wouldn't trust it though.
FFA doesn't, or at least shouldn't, depend on your progress. I took out the check for the clear game flag so you can play it without completing the main game first, of course.

Anyways, taking a break and watching Rance 01 episode 3 with my girlfriend. She loved the first two, gahahahaha.
>>
>>173476062
She turns 16 on LP6, 17 on LP7. She's from GI1006 same year as Tillday. It's info from her RWN entry.

>>173493146
Yeah and she's clearly quite young in Quest

She's old enough for snu-snu

>>173473309
I don't remember if 03 explains it, but Alicesoft did answer previously on a Tomino-memo. The Leazas castle stands at where the demon king castle from Gele era was at. Noce being a loyal Gele follower knew about a secret passageway (likely magic / teleport) that would take them directly to the castle.
>>
>>173496216
Which also explains the constant monster issues the castle suffers from

I'm curious. How much Rance has the average hanny played? Personally I've beat I and 02, I've played SR to death, and I'm currently working through III. What about everyone else?
>>
>>173497786
Every game.

In terms of the thread most people who can read Japanese have played every game + some other Alicesoft games while most of the English only posters have done all the translated games + the other translated Alicesoft ones.
>>
>>173478414
I feel like blue will look better in the end, but for now red.

SR,VI,02 and now i'm playing 03
>>
>>173497786
I've played I - II - 02 - III - KR - 5D - VI - SR and currently doing Quest

On average, I would say VI - SR, maybe I -- II digest, and 3/4 hanny have played KR
>>
>>173497786
Every game before Sengoku except 4.x.
Did read their let's play on the codex though.
>>
>>173497786
Every translated game aside from the digests.
>>
>>173497786
Every game, many of them multiple times
>>
>>173497786
Every game but the original II (but then only played 02 with the old script).
>>
>>173497786
02, SR, VI, 5D, KR.
I would play I and III but I would rather wait for the remakes to get translated. I'm saving IV as an emergency game when I really feel like I need to play a new Rance thing.
>>
>>173498527
>I would rather wait for the remakes to get translated.
You are aware that that might not happen in the current decade right?

I just wanted to say that I'm having a blast playing Rance VI. It's simple, mindless and I like it; I've been having problems playing AAA games for more than 2-3 hours before getting bored, and this is a great change.

Thanks for the FAQ and download links, anons.

>>173500216
VI is great fun.

So I'm trying to update my Rance characters list, will post it here in case anyone is interested and/or would like to help by pointing characters I missed.

I'm going to list characters by their first Chronological appearance from 01 to IX, with KR only (so far at least) and possible some other related game in the end.

For 01/I :

+Already on RWN:
Rance, Sill, Lia, Kanami, Maris, Menad, Jericho, Heidi, Klin, Necai, Reiheld, Murara, Keith, Otama Otoko, Leila

Willis, Miki, Nami, Patty, Millie, Yuki, Aki, Pulptenks, Yulang, Hikari, Lavendar, Hazuki, Yenyen, Niu, Wensding, Calpis, Bobz, I Com, Mi Lordring, Ninja Master, Luis, Jean, Hubli, Kongo, Kugutsu, Alexander, British, Arios, Perverted Mouse, ALICEMAN

Also the two bandits with a prison girl may still exist as character as you can see their back on the Colosseum audience CG.
>>
>>173501157
The wiki has a list of all Rance characters, so use that if you're afraid of missing anyone.
>>
>>173501157

>>173501483
How about doing it in thread for something to discuss before the mod release?

>>173501580
If only there was Rance X news
>>
>>173501656
We discussed to death those two SS already.
>>
>>173497786
Played and completed:
I, 02, III (There's the Hanny King, but he's pretty much impossible), IV, 4.1, 4.2, 5D, STB

Played with things still to do:
KR, SR, VI

Other Alicesoft games:
BBA, Mamatoto, TT1, TT2, Kaeru nyo Panyon, Little Princess, Haruka
>>
>>173501656
Which generated an extremely impressive posting speed last thread.

But what more can we derive from two images?

I played Little Princess on stream late last year and then Rance I to IV.

Might pick up from there with 4.1 and 4.2 all the way to Sengoku and then maybe the non canon route and KR.

For Rance: >>173498402
For other Alicesoft games I completed Daiteikoku, Blade Briders, Evenicle, Little Princess.

She has 100% soul pollution so is removed from the soul recycling system.

>>
>>173504853
No. Rathowm takes the soul if you are a devil worshipper and you die.

100% soul pollution takes you out of the system but there is an inbuilt safeguard which sparks suicidal impulses if someone starts approaching that.

Someone who reached 100% soul pollution become real immortals, like Keikoku. As in, there is no way to kill them, only seal. Most become like mindless zombies or become mad. Only those with a very strong willpower are able to still keep their mind.

>>173505656
No because it wasn't an accident.

She's actively an enemy of the gods and a pope who went rogue so she's not high on the list of favorites anyway.
>>
>>173505656
Keikoku is completely different. She's just cursed.
>>
>>173505656
Keikoku was cursed by a Yokai. She's another thing entirely.

>>173505656
Keikoku is a different being, I just mean that like Keikoku they're one of the few beings truly immortal in the continent.

How attractive is Rance supposed to be in-universe?
>>
>>173510971
Handsome. Patton is canonically ugly
>>
>>173510971
He's pretty regularly described as "cool-looking" by people who don't know his personality, but he's consistently said to be less attractive than bishonen like Bird or Abert.
So above average, but not to the same degree as the other handsome male characters.

>>173511058
More like Rance thinks he's ugly and others are surprised that a rowdy muscleman is a prince.
>>
>>173510971
Girls usually comment he isn't bad.
But he isn't the handsomest ever.
>>
>>173511129
Someone says that he's ugly during the refugee part of VI. Maybe it was Copa
>>
>>173496216
Well, I guess I have an idea of how Rance will get into Kayblis's castle in Rance 10.
>>
>>173511214
Copandon says that he isn't her type, but that doesn't mean that he's ugly.
I like how Patton and Copa become sort of bros in VI. I wish more side relationships between party members like that were visible (like between Sill and anyone other than Rance).
>>
>>173510971
Decent. Girls like Shizuka find him attractive.
>>
>>173510971
Less attractive than male characters who are meant to be handsome, but still pretty good-looking.

Oh yeah. IX's party is my favorite party in the whole series. While it has its flaws, IX's focus on the smaller scale aspects of the revolution was great for seeing more from the characters.

I just wish Sill had more. Her brief one-on-one exchange with Kanami at the beginning of 03 was pretty good, but I can't really think of any time you get to see her relationships with the other girls without Rance around.
>>
>>173511152
Meanwhile, Rocky has to be threatened by Rance before even thinking of describing him as a handsome guy.
His looks are decent, but not particularly noteworthy.
>>
>>173511850
You never see Sill have any interactions or relations with anyone bar Rance.

Or any attachment to her family or home country.
>>
>>173511983
Kamilla thought he had a good body.
>>
>>173511985
>You never see Sill have any interactions or relations with anyone bar Rance.

You do, but in a severely limited capacity.

Mostly everybody likes her and that's it.

Really, the four "main" girls should all have more distinct relationships with each other than they do. Shizuka and Maria are the only ones who have a clear dynamic.
>>
>>173512042
But that's only after taking the time to look him over. At a glance, Rance's looks aren't notable, whereas they are for someone like Abert.

>You never see Sill have any interactions or relations with anyone bar Rance.

Kamilla also got wet for Rance pretty quickly. So does Shizuka.

Rance is much better than those other men and has real manliness.
>>
>>173511985
Sadly she missed the two games that had the higher amount of event between various party members.
>>
>>173511058
That's just in Rance's opinion. Rance only thinks that pretty boys are attractive.
Not even Gandhi, who is a stud in-universe, is seen as a threat by him.

What's his opinion of Hubert? He sort of tows the line between muscleman and pretty boy.
>>
>>173513827
He forgets Hubert between IV and IX (understandable, really).
Since Hubert is wearing a fake mustache as part of his disguise, Rance and everyone who hasn't met him before (like Tilde) assumes that he's a middle-aged man, which immediately makes him not qualify as a threat in Rance's mind.
There's a part where Rance calls both Patton and Hubert ugly. Patton just laughs it off, but Hubert gets offended and says it's just because of the mustache.

Kaiju age normally. She's 14 in KR IIRC.

I agree with the theory that >>173473420 is Rance choosing one between the three is likely. While the pic can just be Rance evaluating the three new girls joining his party, deciding who he wants to take to bed tonight, etc, it's interesting to note that back in 2015 TADA said he was making Rance 10 to be the type of game that you need to play through a few times to see everything.

Which would make sense, considering the big number of characters that may be in the game, that many will be optional between a few choices.

The problem is that the optional characters would be unlikely to participate on the main story after the joining events, at most having their own personal events.

If that is the case, then I hope there is at least a good number of characters who are mandatory to get, or that at least will get some importance o the main story before the optional event to join your party, so they are important before it (for example, Arms participating on the elimination of one demon then later being a choice with other characters to join).
>>
>>173517197
>Kaiju age normally.
We don't actually know that. She could be 14 in Kaiju years or whatever.
Besides that, each of her appearances take place in a different universe, so there's no way of gauging how much time has passed between them.
>>
>>173515898
What their story again?
>>
>>173517297
The only real problem with having a lot of optional recruits is the risk of having something like SR where most characters have little to no plot relevance. The most relevance they'd get is a throw away line that doesn't effect the scene even when it comes down to an important event. If there's going to be choices between party members I'd prefer it to be somewhat meaningful. Maybe a different approach in a dungeon or something of that nature.

Doesn't really make any sense considering Planner allowed Rance to be born because he anticipated that he would become a villain and cause lots of chaos in the human world. Since for the longest time Sill was one of the only reasons why he wasn't a villain, that seems counterproductive.

Good point. If Alice is aware of him right now so should Planner. Still, she never mentions Planner, nor say that they were aware of him since he was born. It's not even mentioned if they know he has no cap. Just that they are aware of him for some time and expecteded him to become an evil king that would bring a lot of chaos to the world. Which can have been since he actually took an important spotlight on world affairs, like during 3.

I wonder if in X Colcoo will do some things behind Rance back to result in more problems following Alice orders and/or because she understands that Alice may order Rance's death if he isn't causing enough suffering.

>>173524058
Their assumption that he would've become a bandit king makes it seem like they knew about him before III, since III has him full on leading the Leazas Army. His actions in III seem like they'd make it pretty clear that he'd be something even greater than just a bandit king.[/spoof]

It's on the Wiki.
"Around 3-4 turns after Sill is froze, Rance will get irritated and will lose between 6 and 10 satisfaction points (or all of your SAT, if you somehow have less than the number that the event will take from you). This will repeat every 3 turns until you have done 2 purple events titled 'Frozen slave: Sill' and have seen a start of turn event where Kouhime slaps Rance. Be warned that the necessary purple events with Sill do not seem to occur as start of turn events and that the third purple event with Sill is not needed to stop the SAT loss."

>>

>>
>>173541123
I'm pretty sure they don't tell you outright what it is. Usually it's a bit of a cryptic message, you can pretty much figure it out though.

Also there's a stipulation that certain enemies can't make it to the left edge of the screen or you lose, and the screen auto-scrolls. And another thing, you can get better loot/xp if you let the screen scroll all the way and reach the end, so that's your incentive not to just do it on turn 1.

Several scripted events, such as akashi declaring war on you or mouri taking over tawkadiefiwa, are influenced by whether the game is considered a first playthrough.

>>173557652
Yes there is. On your first playthrough certain events can happen to help you, for example if you don't manage to unite JAPAN before the Demon Army comes you'll start just annexing houses for free. And if the Demon Army takes over houses they'll rebel and join you. Basically it's set up so you can't really lose on your first playthrough.

Also iirc other events are pre-set, like Takeda annexing Houjou if you decide not to attack them, or maybe it was just one of their provinces, can't remember.

>>173556483
As far as I know, higher difficulties basically increase enemy troop counts. In Sengoku Rance, AI countries' troops counts scale to yours (except footsoldiers), and depending on your difficulty, that scale will get bigger and bigger.

What I mean by scaling is that the game looks at how many troops you have and adjusts the enemy's troop counts to fit. Iirc this happens between turns, you can even see the troop numbers increase. What I mean when I say "except footsoldiers" is that when the game is figuring out how to scale troop numbers, it doesn't check your footsoldiers, so you can inflate footsoldier troop counts super high and not inflate enemy troop counts.

I'm not sure if there are any other effects besides this >>173559148 chain of events where the game basically bails you out on no-star.
>>
>>173559207
This is everything I've managed to dig up, but I haven't done a full playthrough in a while so I might be describing some of it wrong.

Several scripted events, such as mouri taking over tawkadiefiwa, are influenced by whether the game is considered a first playthrough.

battleground influence after an incomplete/lost battle is much more forgiving on zero-star

battleground influence regeneration is faster on zero-star

book stat increases past 7 increase the commander's "cost" one more per higher difficulty level (per level, not per star)
+1 on normal
+2 on one-star
+3 on two-star
+4 on fives-star

自動行動回数 (whatever that means) is increased by 1 at two-star and by 2 at five-star past turn 40, for all nations (on top of its natural value)

The turn 79 "fast forward" only happens on zero-star.

On two-star and above, Akashi will prepare to declare war on you just by having seen the Akashi introduction event (明石/少年の国). Otherwise it requires these conditions: (◆ゲームモード == 1 && 勢力[19].状態 == 9 && ◆章 == 2)

On one-star and above, Soul Binder's dice roll twice instead of once per turn after turn 100.

Some cases where ▲合戦制限 is enabled are only run on zero-start difficulty.

??? On one-star and above, "real" commanders from all factions other than Owari start with slightly more troops. Also, all factions other than owari start with more 軍事力, corresponding to the difficulty level (+1 for one-star, +2 for two-star, +3 for five-star).


There's also the possibility that the game engine itself reads the difficulty value directly, but so much of rance is done with pure scripting that it seems unlikely.

I ended up liking both Sapphire and Topaz a lot more than I expected to. Their voices played a big role in it. It's pretty weird picturing Ithere fucking Topaz, though.
I like Garnet's design, but her personality was too indistinct for me to have any meaningful feelings for her. Her being some sort of punk girl sounds like it might have been interesting, but it isn't conveyed at all in 03.

I can't read Jap but I can confirm this. The player autoconquering most of Japan when fighting the Demon Army is a 0-Star thing. Not a first playthrough thing.

Speaking of, what triggers that event anyway? Most people say it's to do with your turn count but I've never been sure about it.
>>
>>173558995
>Also iirc other events are pre-set, like Takeda annexing Houjou if you decide not to attack them, or maybe it was just one of their provinces, can't remember.
In first games Takeda will conquer Houjou or Uesugi depending on which one of them you went to war with. In second games the Takeda House will take Saitama from the Houjou House on turn 56, assuming that the Takeda House has been introduced by that point (KTM can make things weird).

>I'm not sure if there are any other effects besides this >>173559148 chain of events where the game basically bails you out on no-star.
>This is everything I've managed to dig up, but I haven't done a full playthrough in a while so I might be describing some of it wrong.
Wiki guy here, the autoconquer thing is the only event I know of that cares about your difficulty rather than whether or not you're on a first game. So given that both my deep SR autism and people here looking at the code don't know of any other event in the game that cares about what the difficulty is, I think it's safe to say that that's the only one.

Would be people be opposed if included the automatic post-win troop increases in FFA? The way we're used to playing FFA involves either spending money, using mansions, or holding the popularity staff to increase troop sizes.
It shouldn't be balance-breaking since enemy armies will scale according to the player's average army size.

Also, I removed a 130% unit scaling factor from all of the unique commanders. I'll probably put it back in.

I think there's more to it than that. Have you ever tried to conquer Cario in the True Route before Apostle Shikibu has died? For whatever reason, that causes the Demon Army to attack you an incredible number of times per turn.

>>
>>173614506
Patton is the only male party member who functions exactly like a female one in terms of FR events. He has FR events in dungeons, and eventually gets an infinitely-repeatable one at the base.

Rocky has a few FR events at the base, but mostly gets FR from dungeons.

Abert has no dungeon FR events, but several non-repeatable ones at the base.

Tamanegi has a few FR events in dungeons, and while he doesn't really have any at the base, he gains FR every few new galmon you give him.

Bernard is a joke character who Rance ignores for the entire game after learning that he's a man. He has no FR events and should be the first member of your team you replace.

All other male party members (like Rick) join late game for a limited window of time, and don't have any FR events either.

FR can also be raised by giving the present item to a character, but I would think twice about giving any to Bernard or the late game guys.

Patton and the late-game ones definitely are.
>>
>>173616708
Remember that the SP system in VI makes it so that even weak characters have their uses for combing dungeons while the strong conserve their energy.

Rocky never exactly becomes strong, but his high amount of SP, ability to run from battle and general sturdiness makes him a great scout to lead a trek through a dungeon while you conserve the SP of your strongest party members like Rance for the toughest battles. He's much more useful than he initially seems.

Patton has a ridiculous amount of HP, high defense and good attack, and will function as your primary tank as soon as you get him. His level cap is also enormous. He's really the only non-late game male party member other than Rance that you could call top tier.

Abert is pretty meh, but has a high amount of SP, resistance and evasion, making him a solid secondary magic tank after Rizna. He slips in and out of the party a lot, though, so you shouldn't worry too much about him.

Tamanegi is generally pretty weak, but his role as a ranged physical attacker will give him a place on Rocky's B-team for most of the game. He's also better at capturing galmon than Rance, but that requires him to be in the front row.

Bernard is okay as a member of Rocky's B-team early on, but will start to get overshadowed by even the other weaker party members very quickly. Abert isn't great, but even he's basically just a better version of Bernard all around.

All of the late game male party members are great, and will instantly become your main attack squad for battling bosses.

It's not hard to understand:
>Goddess La Vaswald assumes the human form Paelina Misnarge to cause trouble on the Continent
>Paelina gives birth to Patton Misnarge with the Helmanian Emperor
>Sometime later, La Vaswald is divided into three parts out of fear of her destructive power
>La Hawzel, La Seizel and La Athmaze
>Hawzel and Seizel are given to the Demon King to be made into Demons. Athmaze is given to the human world
>Athmaze marries Souzou Masou, has Shizuka Masou
>Athmaze is later kidnapped and raped by Ragarl, having Nagi su Ragarl
>Detecting her former onee-sama's blood running through Patton, Kamilla requests that he let her call him brother.
So Patton, the La sisters, Shizuka and Nagi are all sort of siblings. And Kamilla is an honorary sibling.

I can't think of any games that give you a bad ending for playing on the easiest difficulty setting, except for old games that wouldn't let you get past a certain point and said "play on a harder difficulty setting to see the ending" or something like that.

Mistake.

Also, somebody noticed that the Demon-Human barrier is breached sometimes. Basically, they won't attack the other if their side isn't unified, unless you're on the border. They'll attack the player before unification.

Was I doing something wrong or was this supposed to be this RNG based? I eventually did it after equipping the only resurrection item on Cessna so that both cancellers survived the fight, but I still had to redo the fight a few times. Who has reliable magic attacks? I thought Rizna will have one but she just does physical.
And this is still early in the game, I'm a bit afraid now.

It'll be interesting to see what Ithere gets up to in X. Shizuka's more than a lost cause for him, his Apostles are dead, and overall it's pretty unclear what he's got left to live for. On the other hand, it'd be a waste for them to retcon his death only for him to get killed off again as soon as he reappears. I've got no clue what kind of ending he'll get.
>>
>>173653841
Not him but the name shows up as Pencilcow, and not Kalars when starting a new game.
>>
>>173650675
It WOULD give us the best Apostle, but they wouldn't let the most popular girl in the series hook up with anyone besides the protagonist.

They really did knock Ithere out of the park in 03, though. He went from one of the most forgettable villains in the series to one of the best. He ended up completely overshadowing Satella.

Did his death got retcon? Or is he still a blood soul lost in Leazas castle that spirit manifests from it so people think it's a ghost? While Rance didn't give the final blow, he was already fatally damaged. He even mentions when the apostles give his blood back that it wouldn't be enough considering the level of his injuries. So sounds like he was just able to walk a bit to inside the Leazas castle before turning into a DBS.
>>
>>173676661
03 shows him as alive but heavily injured and judging by Kamilla's healing rate it will take him quite a while to recover
>>
>>173676661
He is just a blood soul but he managed to go to a place where his soul wouldn't be found
>>
>>173676848
03 shows him as heavy injured and saying he is about to die. Then on the prologue it shows there is already the rumor of the ghost and him to make it obvious he is the ghost. They didn't make a new standing image of him as a ghost just for that, but it already implies he is a ghost = turned into DBS, already.

>>173677020

While optional characters can't affect much the main story,they could affect at least one part of it, as long as, different from sengoku, the order you recruit them isn't left to the player, which is likely the case in X. So if you had to choose between one of those three tactician, then they may participate in an event to defeat one demon but the way it's done depends on who you chose.

The goal of FFA is to have as few hostile countries bordering you as possible. The reason is that the AI will attack random countries, and the more AI you border, the more likely you are to take an attack, and have to either defend with your troops or give up a territory.

Keep that in mind when you conquer. If taking a province means that you're now bordered by two new countries, it's probably not worth taking unless there aren't any other options.

This also means that big countries are actually the best ones to fight. You can gouge out their territory and take provinces without opening any new fronts with other countries.

Using Neutral Action makes this trivial to do since it allows you to close a front whenever you want. Barriers are also useful in temporarily closing fronts from a defensive perspective, but keeping them open offensively.

All in all, I think DHR FFA is actually much more difficult simply because of the shape of the map. Unlike vanilla SR where the map is elongated and has lots of edges or provinces bordering few other provinces, DHR has some provinces that border 4 or more other provinces. Just look at Maunes, it borders 5 provinces, and at the start of the game it's nearly surrounded by enemies. Pencilcow is nearly as bad, and NW Zeth is even worse.

There are some more desirable provinces though. Overall, JAPAN has by far the best geographic position since they can only be attacked once a turn at most at the start, and can freely expand into the weak Free Cities. Their provinces are the best because one province only has a single border (with another JAPAN province), and the other one only borders the other JAPAN province, and a single hostile province. The AL church province is also desirable since it only has one border. Wes and Archfiend's Castle are also pretty good with just 2 borders.

So TL;DR, conquer good provinces, play smart, abuse Neutral Action. Don't forget buildings. Oh, and keep an eye out for Twin Action King.

Isn't that considered dishonourable? If memory serves you can use that to trivialise FFA.
>>
>>173689576
I think Leazas is fine as it is quite a powerful nation, but you have to really consider the provinces around you. What balances Leazas is how often it gets attacked due to all of the factions. Mind you, it doesn't really have a big OP unit like TOSH.
>>
>>173689890
Well yeah, it makes it super easy. Personally I never use neutral action but if you're having trouble just surviving you can use it to learn.
>>
I love some of the events you create in DHR

-Helman is back to Rance III status, teaming up with Satella, Silky and Lei
-Kalar, Zeth and Helman suppressing Kay-chan
-Demon King Little Princess died
-Rafalia won the best young Leazas tactician contest by virtue of Alcott dying

Maybe in 5 years. Even only counting the non-Rance popular HD games, there's still Daiteikoku (probably not because I doubt Arunaru wants to touch it, but it would sell well), Oyako Rankan, and Escalayer before Evenicle. If you include non-HD games, Galzoo Island is vaguely possible, and one of the Pastel Chime games might be translated to get an AS title on Steam. Even if the latter isn't the best game ever, it might be enough to convince Steamfags to go on to the main website and try Rance, not that I would bet on it.

Evenicle would probably sell the most out of all of these, if only because of Nan. Other than another Rance game, it would probably be the one Alicesoft title that could sell more than Rance VI. I would definitely try to get it if I was MG; the main limiting factor would be if Alicesoft would be willing to license it for a reasonable price.

None of the Free Cities will attack you (except Mars, but that's only under certain conditions).

Visiting Custom once will instantly net you Shizuka (great mage unit), Maria (great physical ranged unit), Mill (initially weak but can become a great mage tank if you put in the effort), Milli (mediocre warrior with a huge starting army) and Eleanor (crap spell blader who is still somewhat useful very early on). While there are other units that you could get at this point (some of which are very good), those five are the easiest to obtain and bulk up your forces substantially.

The time limit you have to save Soul is actually more than enough to totally clean out the Free Cities, but if you're in a rush just go for the Custom girls. As soon as you start fighting Helman you'll be given the opportunity to recruit Patton (a crap warrior unit who is good in dungeons and has a special move that can save you in a tight spot), Hunty (the strongest mage unit in the game), Hubert (a great all-around warrior unit) and Freak (a mediocre but still usable mage unit). In other words, you can get 9 units for doing basically nothing in a very short amount of time right as you begin fighting Helman.

The Demon phase basically becomes a waste of time once you recruit Satella and Meglass. They won't fight anyone other than demons, and the demons almost never attack more than twice a turn, so you'll be fine.
>>
>>173735154
He's clearly only played for a little bit.
Bound and Soul are both pretty likable for what little they get to do, but the game really hypes them up as being way more important to the plot than they actually are. The opening makes them out to be as important as Rance, Sill and Lia.
>>
>>173735246
Doesn't seem like the time limit is very loose at all given that you need to set aside an entire month just to conquer Shangri-La and another month for Lazeal (in order to obtain Raylee)
>>
>>173727316
>I don't really feel like I have the units to take on Helman right now
The only units you need to take on anything in Kichikuou are Rance, Rick, Barres, Shizuka, Maria, Gandhi, Hunty and Cafe. Some of the others have their niches, but overall everybody else is filler for when you've already used up the aforementioned characters.
>>
>>173735626
>you need to set aside an entire month just to conquer Shangri-La and another month for Lazeal (in order to obtain Raylee)
Or you could use the month it takes to conquer Shangri-La as the month you need to wait for to obtain Raylee. That's what I do every time and I'm almost 100% certain it's the "correct" way of doing it. You kill two birds with one stone.

The satisfaction of knowing that you stayed true to Rance's character. Kinkaid would almost definitely get killed if he ever appeared in canon.
>>
>>173736987
>Rance having the ability to effectively command an entire country is pretty out of character to begin with
His army is made up of the strongest soldiers of the other armies and he himself is the strongest, but he's not really supposed to be that great of a commander.
>>
>>173737445
That's what I'm saying. Rance is a shithead. I'm surprised that only half of Leazas rebelled after his coronation
>>
>>173737074
Really, if you're playing in-character as Rance, the only men who shouldn't die are Rick, Barres and Kentarou (and Patton and Hubert, if you ally with them), and that's only because you're never given the option to kill them (like with Ex and Kinkaid) and there's never any reason to have them die in combat (like with Cordoba).
>>
>>173737670
Goes to show how popular Lia is then
>>
>>173737670
>I'm surprised that only half of Leazas rebelled after his coronation
Barres is an uber-nationalist who wouldn't betray the royal family no matter what. He's the only general who Ex doesn't mention to have expected to join the rebellion.
Rick's bromance with Rance surpasses his one with Ex.
Cordoba probably just went along with the majority.
>>
How many bastard children has Rance sired?
>>
>>173737710
I'm not sure about that. Rance may hate other men and he may usually act on impulse, but he's also not a complete idiot. He doesn't kill anyone that's willing to work under him unless he has what is in his mind a good reason to do so.

Rance's logic:

Raped a bunch of women without my permission. Nobody can do that but me.

Lied about his identity. Is really the King of the nation that I'm currently at war with. Said nation just nuked some of my army. Girls like him more than they like me. He just offered to let me kill him without putting up any resistance.

Willingly offered to sacrifice himself to defeat RedEye.

Story wise:
The main character, Ryuusei, was a Japanese soldier during WW2. He was assigned to investigate one relic underground which they believed may help during the war. The relic activates and he is frozen there.

Many decades later the world is attacked by strong alien spacecraft. Humanity seems completely helpless against them. But as they were destroying Japan Ryuusei awakes boarding a powerful ship and destroy the aliens.

The device he now has control of is able to materialize things one imagines. But it only works with Ryuusei and with people who are compatible (which will happen to be the girls). Knowing more aliens are on the way, the army look for the ones compatible who together with Ryuusei are the only hope of humanity against the alien threat.

As usual for the kaijuu genre, the story gets quite over the top at many points on the lines with Gurren Laggan, and pretty fun if you like that type of story. There is some interesting revelations later on the story too.

The cast is quite likeable, both main, sub characters and villains. Ryuusei is funny with his quirks and ideal of being a Japanese man (ideals from the 40s as he was frozen until recently). At the beginning be much proactive regarding the girls but then is quick to take responsibility and take them all as his waives and consider his duty to make them happy.

The 5 heroines work pretty well variation wise both in personality and ero. I found them all likeable, although has my favorites. Two of them also will be shown to have a quite interesting but tragic backgrounds. There is a lot of interactions not only between Ryuusei and the girls, but also between the girls. Even on the ero. They really become a family.

There is 5 ero scenes per heroine, and one scene per heroine is actually a threesome with another heroine involved (so five threesome scenes, each heroines being in two of them with different pairings). The art is by Min-naraken, but a bit different from his usual work.
>>
>>173739249
Rance gave a good (in his mind) reason for trying to kill Rocky: He doesn't need incompetent people working under him.
Rocky is pretty much Rance's only major male ally who isn't in the absolute top tier of warriors on the Continent. In comparison, he's a lot more willing to work alongside women with mediocre stats so long as they're cute (though he can still get annoyed with them if they're too incompetent).
>>
>>173739250
>The art is by Min-naraken, but a bit different from his usual work.
Impossible. All of Min-naraken's work looks exactly the same.
>>
>>173739727
He does have a very distinctive style, generally suffering from a case of same face similar character design. But Blade Briders is probably his work that suffers less from that. To the point that people didn't even recognize it was his art when we got the first teaser image.

Did you check the game art and CGs? A couple of characters aside, it's doesn't resemble his usual works.

After the Flash goes off, Gandhi will reveal his true identity to Rance due to being appalled by the actions of his country. He asks Rance to trust him, says that he believes him to be the messiah who will unite the world and offers his life as proof of his loyalty.

Killing him pretty much only hinders you, since he doesn't convince Zeth to disable the security fields surrounding the Four Lods' towers and Kaoru and Wichita kill themselves afterwards.

It's still a pretty cool/tragic scene, though, since Gandhi finally realizes that he was totally wrong about Rance right as he dies. Perfect for a "brutal" playthrough.

Kaiju Prince is a deliberately super overpowered unit but you could beat the game and never get him. In exchange you have to attack Helman through the mountains, which is really tough, and also Zeth through Adam Fort, which is really annoying.

Eh, he can draw soft-looking bodies, sure, but every single character he draws has the same chinless face.
It gets especially bad in the games with multiple artists, where every character drawn by him looks like they came from a completely different game.
>>
>>173743317
To be fair, Orion is really weird. The guy can change his art style at the drop of a hat. At first glance, most people would assume all of the modern Rance games were drawn by seperate, but somewhat similar artists.

Min-Naraken has a real problem with same face, but that face has a lot of charm. At the very least, his style is perfect for milfs and shotas.

Onigiri-kun is pretty good. I get the feeling that he's the most "generic" out of the Alicesoft artists, but he's still a great artist.

Gyoukai is good, but my problem with him is that he feels like discount Orion. That's mostly because he did Rance remakes though. His new game might change my mind.

1) Mi didn't exist at that point
2) Rance can only remember the names of a small handful of men. That doubly applies to Mi, who also can never remember Rance.

Where does this come from? I know they had the fight off screen, but when is it ever suggested that Rance even remembers Arios?
>>
>>173751534
In Rance IX when Miracle's talking about her dream time.

Rance is able to comment on all of them Nobunga "he's dead", Patton "He's a big guy", Gandhi "only thing worse than a big guy is a big old guy"

When Arios comes up he just goes "no that ones no good"
>>
>>173751534
Didn't their fight end in a draw? And Arios is such a faggot that Rance probably couldn't accept that and it pissed him off.
>>
>>173751778
To be fair it was probably just written that way because Arios has never actually appeared in a canon game. So it would be difficult to characterize Rance's reaction to him. The most realistic reaction would probably be Rance not even remembering him, but that wouldn't work in the context of the scene.

Also I'm surprised Miracle doesn't know that Arios is a washed up cuck now.

>>173751534
The story is that Rance was so humiliated by his loss (or rather, his not-win) that he vowed to rape all of Arios' girlfriends. If he actually went through with that, though, it all happened off screen.

In IX, when Miracle is talking about the people she'd select to be her personal guard, Rance gives petty reasons why none of them besides him should be in the group (Patton's too big and loud, Tourin's too old, Gandhi's too big, loud and old). He also doesn't remember some of the more minor ones (like Lark and Marishiten).

For Arios, though, he simply says "This one's no good." and moves on, which, compared to the way he talks about the other 10, speaks volumes about how much he hates him.
>>

Rance would trounce him now anyway. Rance has mastered the Triple-Wielding technique, he's a god-tier swordsman now.

I bet Rance could parry By La Way and cut through the invincibility field purely with his amazing sword techniques.

Yeah, that's why he came out unscathed while Rance was trounced. Still humiliating for Rance, though.
>>
>>173752492
It's pretty amazing that Rance didn't die, yeah, but it really was only a draw in name only.

What I really want to know is what made the fight end. Arios was trying to kill Rance, but he was apparently fine afterwards while Rance was severely injured. Seems weird that he wouldn't kill him. Did Arios' compassion get in the way like when he tried to kill Miki? Did Cola stop him because she knew how entertained Ludo was by Rance?

If each of the fated girls had an ending in 10, what would they be?
Sill is obviously just KR true ending.
>>
>>173753114
They won't.
>>
>>173753114
That's a lot of endings.
>>
>>173753610
This. All signs are pointing to a true ending with Sill, a Demon King Rance ending, and then of course a Rocky ending where he turns into a girl like originally planned.
>>
>>173753114
We don't even know how many fated girls there are. And the fact that he has multiple fated girls pretty much automatically excludes any of them from getting a solo ending with him.

I hope 10 has a Ran route.

Gyoukai is more noticeable for the softness of his drawings compared to Orion, but it's most the colour palette that feels the most distinct thing about him.

Not sure if it will carry over to his own game with OG characters, but his colouring style is pretty nice. Like his Kula pictures for example.

The royal guard, rather, Leila is strong. >>173780980 is right, she herself isn't some dramatic military strategist. She's a novelty unit.
>>173780417
They always were. You just didn't have enough mages to notice. There were only Magic, Rizna (who is just a shitty unit), and Shizuka. Didn't you just go out and spam WDB for her only move and fuck a column over? I was also surprised by the defense of cannons when I first fought them. They aren't the glass cannons that muskets are.

Pastebin anon (or anyone else that wants to respond), what are the gameplay changes to Rance 03? I'm looking at youtube and getting confused by the card/window system. Is it just standard RPG fare with a card UI?
>>
>start with a unified leazas
>barries is ranmaru
>nelson is mitsuhide
>start with ranceko
>start with sex change temple
>the o is ashikaga
>japan is iga
that's pretty neat.

shame their roster seems to have been overwritten by generics.
>>
>>173787610
Basically you have a whole bunch of slots (5-8 depending on the game). Each slot is assigned to a skill that one of your character has.

You can use that skill in battle (some require several turns to recharge).

You can use multiple skills from one character (four per character) or one skill from lots of characters,

Each character with a skill you are using is sent out in battle and has HP so if only use skills from one character you only have one character taking hits.

So optimal is to use skills from as many characters as possible.

Naturally this system really hits allrounders like Sill hard because you can just run Shizuka for mage attack and Sel for healing instead.
>>
I'm heading off to sleep.

Can whoever makes the new OP remember to include the updated version of the OP pastebin.

go for hunty and freak

I guess the player is exempt from the demon realm won't attack until one of them is defeated thing huh.
>>
>>173793657
It's actually a pretty even trade even though Patton's group includes two more characters. Patton and Freak are both pretty bad, Hunty is great and Hugh is solid and comes with Shiranui, which you can give to whoever you want. Aristoles is basically a slightly better Hubert without Shiranui, and Rolex is a strong unit with the best special move in the game (basically a combination of a WDB and By-La-Way).

I would still go with Patton's group since a) it's Patton's group, b) a great mage is more rare than a great warrior, c) they all have events, including the one needed to kill RedEye most easily whereas Rolex and Aristoles pretty much drop out of the story after being recruited.
>>
>>173794117
Rolex is also pretty tough to recruit, since it involves defeating his two bitches without killing him. Aristoles also needs to be alive, so that basically prevents you from conquering Lang Bau from anywhere but the south.
In comparison, you just need to talk to the Patton faction while at war with Helman to recruit them.
>>
>>173794384
Aristoles also removes Sheila from the harem when you recruit him.

>Feliss isn't in Kichikuou

>Bird isn't in Kichikuou
>>
>>173795175
>caring about Bird
>>
>>173795175
Bringing the devils in would complicate the game even more than it already is. Feliss is barely a character in any game before 5D, anyway.
Rance doesn't have any reason to interact with Keith after becoming King of Leazas (though it is a bit weird that he isn't the representative of Ice).
Bird only ever appears in the smaller scale games so that he can be Rance's direct competition. He's a nobody in the grand scheme of things.
It'd be funny to see how all three react to Rance as a king, though.
>>
>>173795009
He's needed for her happy end though.
>>
>>173795565
>Rance conquers Ice through negotiation in Kichikuou

>Representative is Keith

>Keith: "Well, well, if it isn't Rance."

>Rance: "I'm King of Leazas now, baldy."

>Keith: "Yeah, I heard about that. Good for you for finally settling down. I'm a bit sore you didn't invite me to the wedding, though."

>Rance: "Like I'd ever. Anyway, I'm conquering the world now, so you better give Ice to me."

>Keith: "Oh? Last time I checked you were still contracted under me as an employee."

>Rance: "So what?"

>Keith: "So, I'm still your boss. And as your boss, I don't see any point in just giving Ice to you."

>Rance: "What the hell kind of logic is that? I don't care what you think. I could order my soldiers to destroy this shithole any time I want to. Be grateful I'm as generous as I am."

>Keith: "Hey now, no need to cause a fuss. Let's see... I suppose I could work something special out for my favorite employee... how about... yeah... one third of Leazas' annual budget every year ought to be enough for me to hand over Ice to you."

>Rance: "What the fuck?! No way I'm giving you that much!"

>Keith: "I've still got a business to run, after all. This is the most mutually beneficial solution."

>Rance: "Like hell it is! I'll just kill you now and take Ice for myself!"

>Keith: "That so? What a shame. Alright, then, if there's no other choice, go ahead and finish me off."

>Rance: "...."

>Keith: "Go on, then."

>Rance: "One third of Leazas' annual budget, huh?"

>Keith: "Hm? Yeah, that's right."

>Rance: "... Fine."

>Keith: "What happened to killing me?"

>Rance: "Not worth the trouble. Take your money, baldy. I've already spent way too long talking to you as it is."

>Keith: "Hehehe... even as a King, you're still the same as always, huh Rance? That's pretty cute."

>Rance: "Shut up."

Seems like a dick move on Keith's part to make Rance give him that much money.
>>
>>173797862
Keith has always been kind of a dick. If he weren't, Rance probably would be a bit more respectful when talking to others.
When Leazas was occupied by Helman, his only reaction to it was that it opened up a lot of doors to making more money.

Pick 2. If your mages are overpowered in SR it's either because you have them new moves or you gave them better stats than the in game mages should ever realistically get.

Good thing Maria is the one translating Quest, because I don't think Mangagamer would pay Aru the $50 per quest he wants.

That makes it incredibly troublesome early on when you can't reasonably kill them, and they decide to come in more than one.

He's got 3 in all combat stats and 0 in useful stats for 0 cost. Not worthless, but he's in with the garbage fodder for a reason.
