I only played the first 2 on sega ,they are nice but my fav
strategy game would have to be warsong or langrisser back then.

i prefer shining force to langrisser. i played langrisser from 1 to
5. 4 and 5 are much better imo cos can buy tons of weapon and cast
a wide range of spells. there is the cheat to go back to previous
scenarios to train up oso and oso the secret shop cheat. however
when playing 4 and 5 u would need a lot of planning to determine
which final class suits u most.
when playing shining force the best part i like is the
promotion. feels like a great sense of satisfaction. esp
for shining force 2 where i try to promote every one at
level 40. my favourite characters were the healers cos they
are the easiest to train. lol
in part 2 the best characters imo are the mastermonks. there are
3 in total, sarah, karna and sheela. karna is the most
powerful of the 3 cos she has wonderful stats if u
promote her at level 40 and bring her to level 99 after
promotion. in total there are 2 vigor balls to be found.
one at the tree where sheela was bathing and the other one at the
'secret forest'
the next most powerful characters were peter, slade,
earnest,ricky, the hero and gerhalt. they sure pack a punch with
their awesome atk stats.
i like the part where we can find secret mithrils and promotion
items. there are alot of mithrils hidden in the mountains on the
world map. usually at places where part of the mountain is jutting
out or in some cases caving in.
