Battle 2:

Mikhail (4000) vs Godwin (4000, Wave Shield)

Godwin's Wave Shield formation has 3 rows.  Often, he'll rotate his calvary and his infantry to pummel you.  If you have F Row Exchg then this battle will take a good while but won't be too difficult.  If you have F Row Exchg then use Def Wave as your formation.  If you lucked out and got Gush Wind and Speed Atk Fwd then just use Speed Atk Fwd and push them off the screen.  Anyways the F Row Exchg tactic works like this: use your calvary to face Godwin's infantry.  Use your infantry to face his calvary.  When he defends switch to the proper unit type then attack him.  Eventually you should be able to push him off the screen for an ugly defeat.  By doing it this way, you should be able to grab 2 tactics unless Mikhail was wounded.  Godwin generally retreats if he has lost over 2500 troops or if you take a long time.

I usually try to get Gush Wind out of this battle or a Recover Form type skill.

Now you'll arrive at Loanne which is littered with monsters.  You should kill the goblins around town to get a bit stronger first.  Next go into the castle and keep going up towards the throne room.  Katrina will run from the jail and join you.  Now, if you've played as Harid, Katrina, Julian, or Monica then you'll recognize this guy on the throne.  He'll say that Godwin has served his purpose and that the throne belongs to the Holy King.  Then he'll attack.
