I could probably help you out a bit with older fire emblems, haven't played any since awakening. I just did an fe7 run where I absolutely stomped, there is a lot of really counter intuitive things that can help you out. One big one is that having a balanced team is for suckers. For the most part mounted units are just objectively better than anything else, focus on cavaliers and flyers, try to use your healer and dancer every turn for the exp even if you don't need the effect, archers are completely useless. Also don't wait until a unit is level 20 before promoting, I'd go closer to 15 for most units, if they're a healer promote at 10 so they can use offensive magic and gain more exp than they would just healing at a lower class. It's usually more of a baiting game, you get most of your kills on the enemy phase.
