Unless you’re on hard mode. Frey is a BEAST
Caeda is hands down the best unit in shadow dragon- when you get forging the first thing you should forge is her wingspear- I’d add +4 Mt at the least so you can one shot enemy’s and even some boss’s.
Abel is great along with Cain but I’d argue Abel is slightly better , Hardin is also great , he can use silver lances at base and he got decent stats all around.
Barst is another great unit and once your ready to promote him I’d highly recommend making him into a hero so he gains some speed and defense and his str will still be good enough.
Lena is an obvious pick and wendal is a great pre promote who never drops off because of his staff utility and being able to chip at 2 range with magic is never a bad thing.
I’d also recommend using either Jake or Beck ( it doesn’t matter which one, hell use both ) Ballisticans are your only source of long range attacks due to bolting and swarms not being obtainable until the last map, they can one shot wyvrens, other ballistcians and weaker units or just chip. There honestly broken.
Also you can warp skip any chapter you really feel like, a lot of people do it for the final chapter but there’s others you might wanna skip as well. The first map you see Minerva as an enemy and Bantu joins is a good one to skip bc the ambush spawns on that map are unbearable.
Also , Minerva , Jeorge, sedgar, Merric , palla, and catria are all good. Ogma should also be good even in the long run on H1 . Also Jagen can be useful as a dracoknight in the early game but he’s not like a must use character like he would be on H3 or higher. Still good tho
I feel like I don’t need to explain why the rest of those units are good.
Also make sure you forge effective weapons so you can one shot enemy’s and not face counters
Wish this was my area of knowledge...but it isn’t lol
Pretty much all that I hate lilina said, Tiki or Nagi would also be pretty important. Castor is kind of good on higher difficulties but i'm not sure if this applies to H1 already. If you reclass, Wolf and Sedgar are absolute beasts. Julian is good for his utility and can be a decent combat unit if trained. If you like myrmidons, you can use Navarre. He is pretty mediocre, but he can still pull his weight.
Castor is good in early game, though I usually bench him for Jeorge bc I have a thing for pre-promoted snipers. Draug can actually pull some weight as a reclassed hunter and eventually bow knight.
Navarre should also be more than serviceable on H1 as well. I don’t think he’s particularly great but he should work fine and eventually will grow strong. Just don’t reclass him or he actually becomes kinda slow.
One last thing is I’d recommend giving sheeda the first master seal bc she is a beast and deserves it. You can early promote her and it does not make a difference. She just dominates and dracoknights are the best class in shadow dragon.
[Edit] I forgot to mention Tiki or Nagi bc I just assumed one of them would be used 😂, Tiki one shots manaketes and is good against the final boss, definitely use her when you can. Gotoh is fun to play around with so I’d recommend Tiki over Nagi just for that alone but it honestly won’t make much difference on H1. It’s really just personal preference
