Triangle Strategy: Chapter 7, Part 1 - Should You Protect Roland Or Surrender Him?

This is the very definition of an uphill battle. The lifts will help even the odds, but this is still going to be a tough one. Your desperate former allies are willing to do whatever it takes to stop Serenoa, including setting their fields abl

It would have been preferable to have one giant cutscene rather than a bunch of them. In general, there is way too much talking. The characters and story are well-done, but it could have been tighter and presented better. There is nothing worse than a meandering conversation in an R

There is also money needed for various items like in a typical RPG . It’s harder to get materials or money in mock battles, which again, makes upgrading certain aspects tricky. It gets better the deeper players get into Triangle Strategy , but it can still be a strug

Serenoa's entourage arrives in the Falkes Demense, prompting the Lord of Wolffort to search his surroundings for a strategy with which to approach Landroi. Expect numerous Conviction boost opportunities as well as the chance to procure more items and useful informat

And now for the main event. Will you see House Wolffort through the moral ambiguity of working alongside Sorsley? Or will you attempt to report his wrongdoings directly to Hyzante? Here's how to make Serenoa's friends see the value of each appro

At many points in the game, you will be required to answer a question in a way that develops one of these Convictions.

War Chronicle lets you read any of the Notes, Information, and Tutorials that you have picked up over the course of the game. It also lets you view your Path Traveled, which is useful for catching up on the events of past chapt

Triangle Strategy is an excellent game that expertly combines satisfying combat and a layered narrative to create something I didn’t know I needed. Serenoa Wollfort’s journey is punctuated with intrigue, betrayal, and triumph that are all driven by player decisions that actually feel like they matter. It isn’t smoke and mirrors on a moral railroad presenting the illusion of choice, it's a ride or die political rollercoaster where failing to convince a single ally will result in the untimely deaths of thousands.

While the characters are little more than a mess of adorable pixels and many environments deliberately resemble handcrafted dioramas, there’s an element of realism in how this game expresses loss and sacrifice amidst conflict, often placing harsh decisions on our shoulders and expecting us to reach an ultimatum that will never satisfy everyone. You will make mistakes as a ruler, forced to leave loved ones or citizens to die in the face of progress or knowing that the war ahead will see further blood spilt if we aren’t prepared.

Coloured tiles appear whenever you are about to move a character, making it clear when you are within reach of an enemy attack and when you are safe. This makes positioning a breeze, guaranteeing safe passage in the midst of chaos when moving more sensitive units like mages and healers across the battlefield. Synergy is also emphasised. If an attack is performed with an ally sitting on the opposing side of a foe’s position, you will perform a two-pronged combo that essentially doubles your damage. These are small additions, but compile to create a tactical experience that feels infinitely more layered and Monopoly Derby Edition satisfying. It is no longer about executing a single action and hoping it goes well, forced to restart if the opposing side suddenly decides to call in reinforcements or deal a critical hit.

Anna will agree with this path if you have 'Defying the Holy One' in your inventory. You'll have either received this from Chapter 8's Exploration Phase, or you won't have; it depends on which location your version of the chapter is set wit

Remember to make regular use of your Encampment. If you've not given it a glance yet in this chapter, you'll find that the merchant's got some new wares in stock including the first appearance of Quality-level materials. These are required to learn rank 2 weapon abilities. The silver you (hopefully) found in Chapter Seven, Part One's exploration phase can be put to good use now to unlock a rank 2 weapon. We recommend you use this first one on Serenoa, but there's no wrong ans

No new mental mock battles appear just yet, nor has the merchant restocked his wares. Stay on top of your Character Stories, though. You may still have several optional recruits to bring into the Wolffort f

Triangle Strategy veers in unexpected directions like this all the time, likely encouraging repeat playthroughs or a naughty bit of save scumming in case a pivotal decision turns sour. I stuck to my guns even when it was clear I should have acted differently, making me curious to revisit certain moments and seek out alternate endings where those I love might have lived, or sacrifices to my people might have been avoided if I was more cautious. One battle involves setting braziers alight to keep enemies at bay, but as a result countless houses are burned to the ground. These belong to real people, and they will reside by the wreckage in later sections talking about what they’ve lost while bitterly accepting that it was for the greater good. Nice one, Serenoa.
