Great Knights first appeared in Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu and Fire Emblem: Thracia 776. They are promoted from Axe Knights and can only use axes.
Great Knights were later reintroduced in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones as a promotion of Cavaliers or Knights. They can use swords, axes, and lances and have good mobility, though inferior to other mounted units, able to move six squares. They also appeared in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn as Axe Paladins in the English versions.
[edit] Notable Great Knights
[edit] The Sacred Stones
- Duessel - A former Grado General known as Obsidian, who joined Ephraim because he questioned Vigarde's acts.
- Aias- The leader of a group of mercenaries working with Grado, he attempts to stop Eirika from reaching Jehanna Hall.
[edit] Notes
- In Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, Great Knights are considered to be both an armored and a horseback unit. Because of this, both armor and horse "slayer" weapons (such as Armorslayer and Halberd respectively) are effective against Great Knights.
