I feel I should note that female characters whose children have joined the "army" retreat when their HP reaches 0 instead of succumbing to permadeath. At least, that's what I've read on Serenes Forest.
A curious question : Can characters marry again if their partner dies?
Let's say Male A marries Female A. Then you recruit their kid and later on Female A dies. Does Male A loses his S support level and can marry Female B and get their kid ?
Nope.
The ladies retreat.
Which is why you can recruit the children with Krom.
Also, female My Units can't class into Dancer >:T Soooo Olivia is going to be your only means of reinvigorating a unit since I think female Marc/Morgan is barred from that class too. grumblegrumble
That has been the case with some characters in the past games. Retreating rather than dying.
However, as far as gameplay puposes go, it's the same as them dying, as you can no longer use them in battle.
Dancer is one of the unique classes I was referring to. Other unique ones include Lord&Great Lord(Krom and Lucina only), Villager(Donny only), Overlord(Valhart only), Strategist&Grandmaster(My Unit and My Unit's children).
Manaketes and Taguel are also considered unique classes, however these are unique classes that can be inherited by the child of a character that has the class already. So a male My Unit marries Nono, Nn, or Tiki; Mark will have the Manakete class available to her. And if a male My Unit marries Velvet or a female My Unit marries Chambray, Mark will have the Taguel class available to him/her. Due the way children are set up, Mark is the only one that can inherit a beastial class, other than Nn and Chambray who are set children of characters with beastial classes.
For those who haven't played FE in the past, or not already learned what a Taguel are, Manaketes are a race of people that have the power to turn into dragons through the use of dragonstones. These act as their weapon in battle and have a limited number of uses before they can no longer be used. Taguel are another race that has the power to turn into a giant rabbit-like creature through the use of their own set of stones.
There are also the two DLC classes Bride and Demon Fighter.
Bride class is a female only class obtained by a character once they have reached lvl 10 with their base class and use the Bride's Bouquet item. They use Lances, Bows, and Staffs; and have access to one activatable ability and one passive one.
The first, Love Cry, is an ability boosts all stats of nearby units by 2 and movement by 1(this is essentially a weaker version of the Grandmaster's Rainbow Cry, that increases all stats by 5, but doesn't increase movement).
The other ability, Bonds, restores 10 HP to nearby allies every turn.
Demon Fighter is available as a male only class after completing Alm's DLC challenge.
They use Swords, Axes, Magic. And have access to two passive abilities.
One, Res+10) that increases their magic resistance by 10, and another, Quick Slash, that boosts their attack by 10 when they are initiating a fight.

I know, bro. All I'm saying is they don't die, better peace of mind c;
Also, Demon Fighter isn't specific to Paris, it's a DLC class like Bride. And Paris is a Hero when you recruit him.
But, Dancer was the class I really wanted my MU to be before I found out she couldn't (; n ;) Is she not sexy enough...? Not even with the 3rd body build!?

I know I was correcting that as you posted.
It is a male only class available after beating Alm's DLC challenge.
It's a class specialized as a battlemage and antimage class.
For peeps like me who have been lusting after the limited edition Fire Emblem 3DS:
Spoiler:
/screaming
I'm partially upset because I got an XL for Christmas, but at the same time the thought of getting an extra 3DS doesn't exactly bother me, because I didn't personally spend money on the one I already have.

Is it coming to the US? Because, I'm going to buy a new 3ds and don't know which one to get. But, if it comes to the states I could get this 3ds.

I think that is what the article is about. The article refers to the NA release date, so I'm pretty sure that means the bundle is going to be available in NA.
That's a picture taken from Game Informer's February edition, so yeah, it's coming to the US. Provided it's not some elaborate troll scheme since the ad isn't present in the digital version. No one knows which retailers will stock it yet, but Gamestop is a good guess for one of them. Apparently, the game is pre-installed onto the system, and the 3DS model is the regular one instead of an XL.
I never played any fire emblem games before this one and this will be my first one so I have no idea what class to pick at the beginning, nor do I have any idea who I'll marry(I didn't even know that was an option, though it certainly makes it more exciting!). I'm pretty excited to try this out but I have no idea how these games even work, just hoping they will be somewhat similar to the other grid based RPG's I play like Disgaea, Advance Wars, and Final Fantasy Tactics Advance.
Your starting class will always be strategist :> You have to use a change seal to get onto the other class routes and their promoting branches as stated before.
Until the Bride DLC surfaces in NA I'll probably just stick with the Griffon Rider. I do want to trounce my enemies doing pretty flips and in a poofy dress. So very much.

It's much closer to Advance Wars than any of the other games on your list.
