Valkyria Chronicles.....
To be honest I have never played a game like this before. Sure I like anime and I have read/played some visual novels. But this .... Valkyria Chronicles ... is so good, so amazing, so great! Im just ... omg! There should be more games like this.

Anyways:
- If you like visual novel and or watching anime .... This is for you.
- If you like turn based 3rd person shooter .... This is for you.
- If you like immersing your self in a a story .... This is for you.

Thus being in an anime, partaking in the story and feeling as if your one of the crew, is just great.

I highly recommend this game & also recommend watching it in SUB not DUB (Go to settings and change audio to Japanese and add subs for those who don't understand Japanese)

Cons

• Minor sound lag.
  
• Minor aim issue when u get close and personal (use ur brain and its fixed).
  
• Limited saves, aprox 20 saves (i've used all the saves but, tbh its easy to work around).
  
• You will eventually receive a vehicle during the "Command Mode" your vehicle will cost you 2 CP. Be warned when driving it. At times you may loose your movements and not get anywhere. I recommend playing around with moving your vehicle(s) so that you may understand how to move it efficiently.
  
• If your a perfectionist like I am, then you will spend a lot of time reloading saves trying to get your sniper to do impossible shots, and making your troops move efficiently as possible.
  
• Crashing upon exit (lol).

Tips & Tricks

• It's possible to save during battles, both before & after each unit you move. Use this to your advantage.
  
• Doing missions & skirmish battles will grant you more money and XP.

Enjoy!

Side note:
From the small research I did. I saw that it took over 6 months to make and set the music for this game. From this I can make an educated guess that the game must have taken a year or more to make (only a guess I read some stuff from the wiki.). Thank you Sega for taking the time to make such a wonderful game. :)
