    This looks really good! Nice work!

    Unless I'm mistaken, Sera is guaranteed to drop from the Helman Prep Phase monster mission, so if you're having trouble getting her from the ??? events, that's always an option

    [Gameplay Guide] Rance X: Decisive Battle

    Is your game on the most recent patch? If I remember right, Suzume was added in in an update, like La Vaswald. I think you need to have 'all cards available' turned on as well since HCG 16 isn't after that duel branch, I don't think. There is an achievement behind it though so probably...

    Turns out you apparently can get Pluepet from the chest at the end of turn 0, so I suppose that's the priority

    [Gameplay Guide] Rance X: Decisive Battle

    Here's a bit of a more open ended discussion type question: What would your "perfect start" for chapter 0 look like? Assuming you've unlocked the card availability ng+ bonus, and gotten all cards into the pool via achievements and whatnot, which would be your highest priority getting out of...

    I'd say go for it with hard mode! It's not as bad as it seems! You get two cards from each chest, so with both of the +5 starting level CP bonuses, you gather power really quickly. Plus, you can hit the 200 + 400 card thresholds much easier for those big power boosts. I would suggest taking...

    You get one version of her by choosing to H her in the Shangri-La quest, then losing the fight with Kayblis in the final map of the 'From the Sea' or 'From the Sky' route. Shariela joins your team to help you fight him a second time. That version of her is super OP, and can't drop in the...

    I primarily used VNR to play as well (it was a bit finicky, and the best way to make it work seemed to be starting a new game and clicking through the first few lines of exposition until it started translating them, then loading the current save), but if you can't get it to work, liberal use of...

    Yep, it's the admiral looking guy! Whoever you choose for the next two choices doesn't matter at all. As long as you pick him, you should be fine. The only other way you can loose is if you step on the wrong tile after the choices. One of them (the furthest left, red option, I believe) is...

    This is super informative, thank you for sharing! :) From what I've seen on the Japanese wiki, there's also some stuff you can do with looping in the second Helman suppression mission (Kesselring) +/or High Level God Willis

    I didn't really change anything (settings, locale, etc), sorry :/ Like I literally installed it and hit go and it worked no problem

    [Gameplay Guide] Rance X: Decisive Battle

    Hurray! Clearing part two seems to be the important flag for the rance and shizuka alts after all! On my new run after beating part two, butler Rance finally dropped at the beginning of turn four :) Um, as far as troubleshooting for windows 10, I'm not really sure what to suggest. It worked...

    Ah that might be it. I haven't beaten Part 2 yet, so I'll do that and then report back if they start showing up

    [Gameplay Guide] Rance X: Decisive Battle

    Are there any unlock conditions for the Rance and Shizuka alts + suzume that were added in patches? My game says it's version 1.04 (confirmed via text file and la vaslwald achievement being there), and I've been playing with the 'all cards available' new game+ bonus for a couple of runs now...

    Hi! I'm new here. I've been playing Rance X for a bit now using VNR and capture2text, and I'm having a great time. This game is awesome! While I've been able to translate most things, there are a few character abilities which I haven't been able to figure out. The main one is Patton's 2 cost...
