Although they may have different personalities and backstories, mechanically they function the same. Some Fire Emblem games will give each unit their own exclusive skill to let them stand out, but otherwise, the units are interchangeable with each other. On the other hand, units in Triangle Strategy whose HP reaches 0 leave the field of battle for the rest of the map, but they don’t die forever. Players may be left at a disadvantage and take longer to win in Triangle Strategy when their unit leaves, so they still need to be considerate of how they strategize, but this also means Triangle Strategy has more leeway to make each unit highly distinct from each ot<br><br> <br>With Triangle Strategy ’s game mechanics , however, players can not only take advantage of elevation, but they can interact a lot more with the map itself.
