Victory by a Water Margin - Let's Play Suikoden


Hours pass after the Liberation Army’s encounter with Milich. When Mathiu comes to the rescue, their fears are confirmed. Mir must move on, especially with Liukan now willing to create the antidote needed to approach Scarleticia. The Liberation Army is calling for revenge, Mir must push past fresh wounds and take on Milich’s army.

A record of the second battle of Scarleticia Castle

Despite the Liberation Army’s painful loss in Soniere Prison, they continued on to Scarleticia Castle thanks to Liukan’s antidote. Although Milich Oppenheimer’s army was still powerful without its ace-in-the-hole poison, Mir McDohl’s army was successful in routing them. Afterwards, it took them little time to infiltrate the castle and burn the poisonous plants. After the battle, Milich Oppenheimer joined the army, as he too had come under the possession of a Black Rune.

Scarlet Moon Soldiers: 12,000

Even without the poisonous pollen attack, Milich can be vicious on the battlefield. His personal attack is magic-based, though he does not deploy it as hastily as Kwanda did for his own attack.

Milich Oppenheimer

Milich’s cruel nature was due entirely to the Black Rune imbued in him by Windy. It dissolves during his panic when he finds the Liberation Army breathing down his neck.
