Learn about Invaders and Effigies in MyCastle battles in Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest Chapter 8. Discover how to defend your castle and gain experience.

Hey there! So, you've hit Chapter 8 in Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest, huh? This chapter introduces a cool mechanic called 'Invaders' that can pop up in your Overworld menu, right within your MyCastle. It's basically a special battle that takes place on your home turf. If these invaders manage to seize your throne, it's game over for that particular battle, so you'll want to defend it!

Don't sweat it too much if they manage to destroy any of your buildings, which are called Effigies during these battles. As long as you can successfully drive the invaders out, those buildings will pop right back up. You won't need to spend extra DVP to rebuild them, which is a nice little perk. These Invader battles are also a fantastic opportunity to get some support conversations going between your units and rack up some precious experience points. It's a win-win!
