(+) Yeah! (+)

For those of you who are veterans of FE and want a different way to play the games, this is for you! Drafts have a simple premise: All units (outside of free and banned units) are available to be drafted. We go in a snake order to pick units. Your goal is to complete the game with the lowest amount of turns compared to everyone else. Having done this many times, I noticed that these drafts are ripe for reset abusing, so I'm adding another rule: it's also an ironman run. No resetting and, if a Game Over unit dies, then the run is over.

Here are the rules and the game-specific rules. I've only really done this with FE7, FE8, FE9, and FE12, so those are the games I'm putting up for contention.

General Rules:

1) No resetting ever. If you lose a Game Over unit, you stop playing.
2) Do all chapters. If you skip a chapter, its a 20 turn penalty.
3) You can use a unit you didnt draft to recruit a unit you drafted.
4) All units you did not draft cannot attack (remove their weapons).
5) If the game has forging, you can forge once per chapter.
6) All games are Normal/Classic unless otherwise said.

FE7:

1) Hector story only.
2) You can skip Chapter 19xx.
3) Marcus is free until Chapter 14.
4) Free units: Hector, Eliwood, Lyn
5) Banned units: Marcus, Karla

FE8:

1) Hard Mode difficulty.
2) Ephraim path.
3) No skirmishes or Tower.
4) Orson is free for Chapter 5x.
5) Free units: Eirika, Ephraim
6) Banned units: Seth, Orson

FE9:

1) You can assign 100 BEXP to a unit every chapter.
2) Titania is free until Chapter 9.
3) Free units: Ike
4) Banned units: Titania

FE12:

1) Kris is always an Archer that promotes into a Sniper.
2) Kriss boon, bane, and sex will be randomized before the draft begins.
3) Hows Everyone is not used.
4) You can reclass units as long as the overall class makeup of your entire, available army is the same. (So if you have 2 cavalries, an archer, and a fighter on your army, you can reclass the cavalry to a fighter and the fighter to a cavalry).
5) Free units: Marth, Kris
6) Banned units: N/A

I say we just let Karla be drafted alongside Bartre. It's not like it's going to make a difference for Bartre's draft position.

Karla being drafted alongside Bartre's fine with me!
