Holy Grail Front 2023 ~Castle of the White Sky, Castle of the Black Night~
General Info:
If you played the previous Grail Front, most of the mechanics this time are the exact same as the previous Holy Grail Front, with the additions of 3 new mechanics:
– Victory Condition: now varied between maps instead of the usual “Routing every Servant/Defeating the opposing Master”
– Continue: you can now continue after Game Over using Quartz/3 Command Seals. All Servants will be revived with full HP and 100% NP gauge.
– Wall & Hidden Path: some maps will have “Walls” that must be destroyed to reveal a hidden path on the map. Damage to the Wall is dependant on a Servant’s Class.
Map 1
– Basically the tutorial map.
– Victory Condition: Move Master to the Goal tile.
– Tips: The Goal tile is also a “Reinforcement” tile, where a new Enemy will spawn from it every turn that can immediately move and attack you. Placing a Servant on these tiles will “block” them from spawning.
Map 2:
– Victory Condition: Move Master to the Goal tile, or defeat the Dreadnought enemy chasing Sugitani.
– Tips: there is a reinforcement tile in the bottom part of the map, place a Servant there to block them from spawning. Other than that, just go around collecting treasure chests then either move the Master to the Goal tile or use your Saber Servant to defeat the Dreadnought. The Dreadnought is hyper-focused on Sugitani and will prioritize chasing her over everything else.
Map 3:
– There are 2 versions of this map: Day & Night. Each version has their own Treasure Chests so you have to clear both if you want their contents. The “Clear” reward can only be obtained once, however.
– The “Day” version is the easier one. I played the “Night” version here.
– Victory Condition: Defeat the Boss/Giant on the Goal tile.
– Tips: The boss doesn’t move so you can take your time collecting treasures / wiping out the enemies before engaging him with your choice of Archer. I’d recommend using a strong Extra Servant to deal with Lancers/Riders near your starting position to make way for your Ptolemaios.
