Anyway, here goes. I'd move Colm up to bottom of Top tier, largely based on his utility. He is hands down the best rogue in the game, and is absolutely necessary on your team for stealing various items. Promotion items and stat boosters must frequently be stolen from enemy units, and so Colm is absolutely vital to use if you want all of your units to be promoted. Rennac comes in really late and isn't as good, so Colm will probably see use throughout the whole game. He's also useful for seeing further in those occasional, annoying fog levels. I'd probably move Forde down to mid tier. Aside from that gaiden mission where you have to use him, he probably won't see too much play. He is generally statistically inferior to Franz, Kyle, and probably Seth, as well. Cavalry are a good class, but there are better options to pick from in this game. Myrrh... I don't really disagree with her placement, but it is kind of odd to tier her at all, considering she is essentially a limited-use character (unless you hack >_>). In my mind, a character you can use forever essentially trumps a character that becomes worthless after 50 charges are expended =/. Any reasoning for why L'Arachel is tiered so low? I was under the impression that she was an excellent unit, statistically. It seems wierd to see Joshua as a Mid Tier unit, considering his wide array of support options, and how useful myrmidons generally are on offense. I'll admit that Myrmidons aren't as powerful in 8 as they are in other games, though. I have yet to finish a hard mode run all the way through, so I can't really vouch for his usability either way. Vanessa seems like she should be placed a little closer to Tana, to me. Vanessa has the advantage of arriving early and supporting good units, but is statistically only average, really. Although Tana arrives later, she is generally the best peggie, statistically (to the best of my knowledge) and also has a wide range of available supports (including a potential support triangle with both Lords) I vote Orson for Dead Tier =D
