If the heir the player chooses knows a formation, it is recommended that the player consult the Formation Soldiers. The Formation Soldiers demonstrate any battle formations the player happens to know and will collaborate with the player to make new formations. They are not the best characters, but as the player advances through the game, he or she will get other characters who specialize in areas that the Fighters are weak in. The Fighters are the default characters that join the player early in the game. Solving the problems he points out aids the player to advance to the next generation.
