Cross Knights

The Cross Knights is the army of Nodion in Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu. They are led by

the King of Nodion, Eltshan. They are also famed for being some of the strongest warriors in all of Jugdral.

In Game
In Chapter 1, Elliot of Heirhein attempts to capture Evans castle while Siglud is engaged in southern Verdane.

However, Eltshan and the Cross Knights come to Siglud's aide and easily defeat Elliot's troops.

In Chapter 3, Siglud is forced to fight Eltshan and the Cross Knights, who have remained loyal to Chagall.

Strategy
It is suggested to have a durable unit equipped with a weapon with a range of 1 - 2 to defeat the Cross Knights as they are all equipped with javelins. Making use of the forest near where the Cross Knights appear is advised as well.

Suggested units to use are: Fin (preferably promoted) with a javelin,

Levn with an Elwind,

or a promoted Rackesis with a ranged weapon.
