So, I completed Eliwoods chapter quite some time ago and I even though I'm interested in knowing Hector's side of the story and a few other characters I can't get myself to play it all over again.
Here are some general pros and cons I feel about the game:
Pros:+ The sprites look awesome.
+ Nice game feel. Getting a lucky critical feels good man
+ Some of the missions require a bit more unique strategizing which I really like
+ Character ships!
+The tactician and tactician rank system is pretty cool. Trying to keep a high rank was fun
+ Having Merlinus is pretty cool. I don't have to throw away items and he brings an extra layer of strategy since I need someone to protect him
Cons:-Shops and support conversations are only available during missions. It would have been quite better if you could shop and converse during the preparation phase
-Eliwood gets his class upgrade way too late in the game. He was at max level quite early which meant I couldn't make him fight since that would be wasting valuable exp. So most of the time he just sat back, bought shit and flirted with Ninian. That was his job
- All flying units are way weaker than the rest of my party when I get them. Had to suffer in the missions where I needed them because I didn't use them.
-Ursula.
-Can't ship tactician with lyndis
-Can't ship tactician with anybody

And that's my general feelings for the game. And I also feel like listing the characters I used from best to worst(gameplay wise). So,
1.Lyndis
2.Kent
3.Oswin
4.Dorcas
5.Rath
6.Hector
7.Lucius
8.Karel
9.Erk
10.Eliwood
11.Jaffar
12.Athos
13.Nino
Didn't add Priscila, Merlinus and Nils/Ninian on the list because they're support characters. Eliwood, Jaffar and Nino are at the bottom because of their late game appearance and/or late game class upgrade. And Athos was pretty much at the last 2 missions for story reasons.

I knew Zephiel might be evil. Nobody is ever that good. But I think he might also be possessed or something. Guess I'll have to play binding blade later
