Gensou Shoujo Wars Complete Box/Bugs

Common Bugs

Duplicate Main Character

If the player reaches a Game Over, they will gain a copy of the route's main character (Reimu or Marisa) on their roster when they continue on to the intermission. These copies are deploy-able and has the same skills and upgrades as the player's main character. Multiple copies of a main character can be gained over multiple Game Overs, and can be gained even if the main character is not playable on that stage. These copies disappears at the next stage.

Insufficient Ammo/MP Costs When Attacking

If an unit uses an attack, but is rendered unable to use said attacks during combat, these attacks will still execute. For example, if Sanae uses Summon Takeminakata (costs 80MP) with 80MP left, and the enemy activates counter, which causes Sanae to consume 15 MP to activate Spiritual Barrier, leaving her with 65 MP, insufficient to use Summon Takeminakata. In this case, she will use Summon Takeminakata anyway, and only pay the remaining 65 MP for the cost.

Sakuya or Yumeko can cause a similar effect using second attack personal skill with insufficient ammo/MP. For example, if Sakuya uses Magic Star Sword with 1 ammo remaining, while using Magic Star Sword for her second attack, the second attack Magic Star Sword will be used despite 0 ammo.

Insufficient Ammo/MP Costs When Counterattacking

If an unit has insufficient Ammo/MP for one of their attacks in a counterattack, that attack cannot be used even if Devote or Resupply was cast.
