...Oh, it's Allune.
Rand and Allune should switch.

Yeah, but Allune can switch with Rand and it won't disrupt anything.

"Gale," Lily calls out. "Bring Kelly, Nevyn, Rhett, Gin, and Isana!" The group comes moving in from the south to join the fight. Sylvia advances to a more secure position and continues providing support. Judoc moves to cover her rear. Lily comes in and quickly slashes the archer threatening her flank, then kicks him back and thrusts into his chest. Alice joins the line, blasting one of the mercenaries away with a shadow. Zenia turns back on the group she'd charged through and targets the sniper. She leaps into the air and brings her sword down, easily cleaving through his armor. Storm attacks the outlaw. His mount kicks the outlaw over, then he stabs him through the chest. Hawke lands and chops at the other mercenary, landing a solid his before turning his counterattack aside. Shep moves to hide behind them, and Rand advances to protect him. Allune signals for the cat laguz to come towards her and the main group. The cat is off-balance and has some difficulty running, but manages to get away from her captors again. Allune swoops down between then, squawking furiously. The pirates hesitate at the sight of the massive bird, and Allune takes the chance to check on the cat. "You're from Sefa Forest, aren't you?" Allune demands. The cat's eyes light up. "Yes! Well, kinda? I've been gone to train for a while, but-" "Stella, right? You left to study magic in Antea." "That's right!" Stella's tail flicks happily. "I'm so glad you remember me! But, um... Do you think we can catch up later?" Allune stabs a talon into the padlock holding her chains together and twists, snapping it with little effort. "Ow...!" Stella protests. "Ngh, that's gonna leave a mark. But thanks!" "Focus on the fighting - here they come!" "Yeah! I'll show you what I've learned!" Stella pulls a sopping-wet tome from her hip. "I really hope this thing still works..." One of the pirates runs forward and swings blindly at Stella. She shakes off the last of her chains and kicks it towards the pirate, tripping him up. She recites a prayer and another sphere of light blasts him in the face. Allune cuts off the other pirate. She grabs his axe in one talon, then pecks him in the back before he manages to rip free. He pants heavily, barely standing. Hyun'ji cuts down the last archer. Suarrure dances over to him, adapting to his new job quickly. Hyun'ji moves to protect Alice. Two of the dark mages come their way. One attacks Judoc. He twirls to the side, getting jarred a bit by the blast. The other attacks Hyun'ji, who easily leaps out of the way. One of the myrmidons attacks Sylvia. She deflects the blow easily, then throws a fireball at the myrmidon. He easily avoids it. The mages attack Suarrure and Storm, who both avoid their attacks. The mercenary continues to battle Hawke. Hawke catches the sword blow and slashes into his neck. The other myrmidon tries to leap at Rand, but Hector whirls around and whips him with his tail before Rand drives his axe into his head. Nevyn leaps at one of the outlaws with his axe. The outlaw avoids a direct hit, and Rhett comes in to help him. He lands another glancing blow. Isana comes up behind him and whispers in his ear. "Aw, why don't you try again?" "OK," he says. He makes another hasty chop, but the outlaw easily moves out of the way. Gale bounds over, circles behind, and finishes the outlaw off. Kelly twirls her lance and swipes as she circles around the other outlaw. She catches him in the flank and he falls to the ground, unable to keep fighting. Gin advances to the front. One of the assassins drops into a run and tries to stab him. He blocks the worst of the blow with his shield, but the knife still manages to leave a small wound. He stabs back, but the assassin easily weaves past the stab. The other attacks Kelly. She forces him back with a well-aimed stab, injuring his shoulder and avoiding his attack. The dark mages attack Gin and Gale, both missing. The two thieves converge on Isana. One brings a stab down straight at her chest. She throws up an arm to block it, taking a deep slash. She swings back at him, but he catches her arm and holds her while the other thief attacks. He swings straight at her throat while she's retrained. She rocks back flips into the air, avoiding the slash, pulling free, and kicking the thief in the face. The assassin surveys the field. "Dammit! How do they expect me to do anything with such incompetent drones! Ugh... Well, at least they gave me a lot of them." She whistles again, this time with a hand signal. Some cavalry comes charging down the trail to join the fight. Four cavaliers, a pair of troubadours, all led by two paladins. "All I've gotta do is buy her a little bit longer..." Sylvia's ears twitch and she gives the assassin an angry look. "Drones? Hmph... If someone like you thinks she can outmaneuver me..."
Allune: 15/16, Transformation 50% Stella: 10/13 Alice: 13/14 Judoc: 13/14 Gin: 12/14 Isana: 10/13 (A) Rush the cavalry (B) Stay in the same spots and defend (C) Retreat into the town and clear up there (D) Head towards the river |

No use getting attacked from two sides.
C, because they look easier to beat down.

Alright, let's see if I can do this. Allune and Stella, try finishing off those pirates. Shep, move to Stella's side and heal her. If there are any surviving pirates, take them out, Storm. Hawke and Rand, form a defensive wall in front of them to block the incoming cavalry charge!
Zenia, swat that mage in front of you out of the way. Suarrure, give her a dance and send her off to SLAM that troubadour on the left. Give the assassin some sort of sassy comment while you're next to her for me, will you? Judoc, step up and protect Suarrure from the cavalry when they come charging in.
Lily, move down and stab at the dark mage on the left with Sylvia providing support fire from behind. Hyun'ji, step forward and slash at the dark mage on the right. Alice, stand behind Hyun'ji and toss a magic blast at the myrmidon nearby.
Alright, this should be interesting. Gale and Nevyn, move north together and take out that dark mage just above you. Rhett, take on the thieves that were attacking Isana. Isana, run over to Gale and give her a quick dance. Gale, charge north! Get as far as you can! She'll be very useful against that cavalry. Kelly, strike back at the assassin that attacked you last turn. Gin, protect Isana.
Alright, I think that covers everyone.

Stella leaps back and fires a light orb at the near-dead pirate while Allune quickly switches targets to the one attacking Stella. The pair of laguz kill them in near-perfect synchronicity. Rand, Hawke, and Storm fly in to protect them from the imposing cavalry. A pair of cavaliers, a paladin, and a mage all come charging at them. The mage launches a fireball at Rand, but he pulls back into the air. He drops back down to block the paladin as it charges at Allune. The paladin swipes at him instead, but Rand avoids the spear thrust and lands a hit himself. The cavaliers each attack Storm and Hawke. Both of them dodge out of the way, then land counterattacks. Zenia stabs one of the mages as he tries to run. Suarrure appears behind her and grabs her shoulders. "Impressive," he whispers, rubbing gently. Zenia closes her eyes and sighs. "How nice. If you learn to keep your mouth closed, you might have a place at my side after all." "We can flirt more after the battle," Suarrure promises. "So how about you go end it quickly?" Zenia pulls free and lunges forward, cutting down one of the troubadors. She glares at the assassin and points her sword. "I don't appreciate all the attempts on my life lately." "Oh, so it's just all about you?" the assassin taunts. She raises a hand and the two cavaliers charge past her and towards Zenia. She blocks one with her shield and the other with her sword, then whirls and hacks into one's back as he passes. She leaps at the other before he can escape. The assassin groans. "...How are they all so incompetent...!?" The paladin ignores them and goes to attack Suarrure. Judoc leaps in the way and blocks the paladin's slash, then spins his spear and stabs him back. The surviving troubador runs over to heal him. Hyun'ji slices the dark mage before him, then effortlessly dodges his spell and finishes him off. Alice stays close behind, throwing a dark orb at the myrmidon. "Spirits of nature, guide me..." The myrmidon dodges the spell easily, almost tauntingly, but the sheer force of the blast is much greater than he expects and blows him away. Lily and Sylvia attack the other dark mage, concentrating their magic. The dark mage weathers their barrage, then returns a dark sphere of his own. It catches Sylvia on the edge of the blast, hurting her a bit, but Lily takes a direct hit. She grunts in pain, then readies herself to continue fighting. Gale and Nevyn attack the two dark mages. Gale tears hers to shreds easily, while Nevyn's unpracticed axe blows fail to land a killing blow. He's still able to dodge away from the mage's spell. The mage shuffles back and fires again, landing a weak hit. Kelly continues to battle the assassin, landing a glancing blow and practically ignoring his knives scratching at her armor. Rhett goes to help Isana, managing to scrape one of the thieves with his hatchet. Isana blows him a kiss as she retreats. "Take care of them for me, Sweetheart?" "Who's Sweetheart...?" he asks the thin air where Isana had been a moment before. "...Huh." One of the thieves takes the moment of distraction to sucker punch him. "Ow!" He whirls around and swipes with his hatchet, missing horribly. The other thief continues to follow Isana. Isana twirls over to Gale. "Oh, my, how gory. Ah, but look!" She spins again, motioning dramatically towards Lily. "Go, my sweet. Your lover needs her big, scary snuggle-bunny." Gale ignores the teasing and takes off running. The other thief attempts to stab Isana in the back, but she produces a knife seemingly from thin air and dodges to the side. It still leaves another shallow slash across her flank, and the thief easily turns her stab aside. Gale leaps onto the dark mage's back, tears into his neck, then bounces off to land in front of Lily. "Hey, 'Lover.' Someone told me you needed someone to snuggle with?" Gale asks. She giggles. It's rather unnerving coming from a giant, blood-soaked rabbit. Lily stares at her silently, then makes a mental note to listen more carefully to the rumors going around camp. The assassin assassin looks up, a smile forming under her mask. "Looks like it's time..." She whips open her cloak and points a palm to the sky. A fireball shoots from her palm and into the sky. "What!?" Sylvia gasps. "She can use magic...?" "You have bigger things to worry about right now," the assassin taunts. Several wyverns and pegasi appear from the left path, each carrying another rider. They quickly unload their passengers and the small army begins assembling into a battle formation. "You took your sweet time!" the assassin calls to them. "And you seem to be down a few members?" One of the wyvern lords, clad head-to-toe in thick, black armor, answers in a female voice. "Holy Knight patrol," she explains simply. "Well, whatever. We should still have enough manpower... All units, attack!" the assassin calls out. "They even brought a dancer," Sylvia says. She almost sounds impressed. "This is a problem, Lily..." Sylvia says. "We can afford to call in a few more reinforcements."
Objective Update - Victory: Defeat both bosses, rout all non-boss units, or survive (round 5/10)
Choose 4 reinforcements (from the south). Fei - Warrior Sorina - Knight Carin - Troubadour Rakim - Mercenary Harv - Pirate Kurt - Thief Quinn - Fox Laguz Eun'ji - Sniper Keith - Cavalier (A) Send everyone south to meet the new enemy as fast as possible (B) Try to draw the air units away with your own air units (C) Continue fighting where people are (D) Move everyone towards the center of the plains |

Fei, Carin, Rakim, Eun'ji.
Can we do a D&B combo? Gather everyone in the south in the center of the plains and finish off the enemy there, then form up into a defensive position, while our air units draw away the enemy Wyverns. Between Zenia, Judoc, Lover-boy, and Hyun-ji, we should be able to make short work of the Assassin boss.

She.
"Does that matter?"
...Huh. I dunno. Maybe? With a male pegasus knight and dancer and a female monk, at least one female that can class into barbarian, I think there's a guy that can go troubador... Also laguz in magic classes, so... And I guess even if that weren't all true I could always say she inherited any male-only skills... Even if she had 2, she could've got one from her mom that got it from her grandpa...
Eh. Enemies aren't going to have skills for a while yet, anyway.
Point is, she's the one the assassin was yelling to.

Alright, we'll need to gather together in the town, but keep a small group out so they can take down assassin boss.
Stella, get a ride from Hawke. Shep, hop on Storm's pegasus. Hawke, Storm, and Allune, move downward together in between the wall and the houses. Only other flying enemies should be able to attack you and you'll be safe from the snipers. Hopefully this draws most of them away while they're distracted attacking.
Zenia, take on the boss. Get the first hit in. Then, Rand, I want you to fly in and try to finish her. It doesn't look like Suarrure is going to be able to reach Zenia at this distance, so we can't rely on her to pull for us. However, we can rely on Suarrure to take out that Troubadour. With his beastbane, and the fact it's a troubadour, it should go down quickly. Judoc, stick close to him and protect him.
Alright, Sylvia, doesn't look like you can reach anything, so move down and use Rally Spectrum to boost nearby allies. Lily, move down and toss some magic at that thief. Alice, follow her lead and toss some magic at that assassin. Hyun'ji, charge down and slash Alice's target apart. Gale, charge on and take out that paladin with your beastbane!
Nevyn, finish what you started and take out that Dark Mage. No excuses. Rhett, keep chasing after that one thief you've been fighting this whole time. Isana, give Hyun'ji a dance so he can cleave the next assassin in two. Gin, make sure to clean up the Dark Mage or Assassin if they stick around. Kelly, move down and take out that thief yourself.
I think that covers everyone. Let's go!

OH, right. Forgot about those. Neo's choice of reinforcements is good with me. Troubadour should probably heal someone. Uhhhh...whoever is the most injured that she can get to at the moment.

Misty = offensive
Neo = defensive
I'll stick with my plan. You do not immediately go on the counter-attack when you're outmaneuvered, outnumbered, flanked, and caught in a pincer attack; that usually results in untimely death. Better to fall back, regroup, and deal with this carefully.
