And it looks like the sole thing on Rpgamer I'm going to be remembered for is starting the is Ellis jailbait. lol.

Umm ok just finished Generation 1 and something bugs me. Gamefaqs posters are still being idiots so I guess I can ask it here.

Spoilers ahead!

So while it's given that Leo and all his male descendants will become seals for the remaining pillars in the other continents, my understanding is that the lead needs to knock someone up to continue the line but somewhere down the line after the next heir is born, the previous lead and all three possible brides become seals for the corresponding pillar while the heir and the other party members get transported to the next continent to continue the cycle. The time gap between generations is simply the heir growing up until his role has to start.

Is my understanding correct?

That sounds about right to me. It is, as you say

After the end of each Generation, they still "exist" for some time until the child is born, then they fully becoming "seals." The rest of the time is just a time skip giving time for the child to grow up.

I stopped posting on the GameFAQs Agarest forums after the North American version was released, most of them really don't know what they're talking about, so I feel for you.

Umm ok another question.

I was told that Ellis, Borgnine and Vashtor leave nearing the end of Gen 4, Borgnine for 1 fight, Ellis until the final battle and Vashtor into Gen 5. I'm planning to replace Vashtor the next time I get someone but, assuming I don't replace Borgnine and Ellis now, can anyone suggest temporary replacements for these two?

Thanks.

Sorry for the delay on the blog - I've finally restarted this game up again, so hopefully now with the free time I have I'll be able to post my thoughts with a lot more clarity. I've just gotten to the first exploration point, so I'm going through that again. Hopefully, RPGamer will have a review for this game by the end of the month. It'll all depend on my free time.

feel free to hate the elves as much you like, nyxie. Hate them and baby-eating ways.

Oh my god, I started playing this again. Finally hit generation two. Still feel like throwing the controller. Is there anyone out there who actually finds Agarest War fun and not a boring slog?
