Reposting from serenes:
I probably should be posting this on fegenesis, but Caeser and Roger are like...the exact same character and should probably be right next to each other. I mean if they're both going Fighter-->Hero:
Roger 5/0: 24 HP, 13 Atk (Iron Axe), 12 AS, 5 Def
Caeser 3/0: 24 HP, 13 Atk (Iron Axe), 9 AS, 5 Def
That extra AS is doubling nothing that Caeser can't already double. Then there's midgame:
Roger 15/0: 33 HP, 27 Atk (Silver Axe), 14 AS, 5 Def
Caeser 15/0: 37 HP, 27 Atk (Silver Axe), 13 AS, 6 Def
Roger might have an advantage against enemies with 10 AS, but Caeser catches up in two levels anyways. Keep in mind that this is right around when Roger reaches 14 AS, so he's winning about 2 chapters at most.
Then there's promotion:
Roger 20/1: 39 HP, 32 Atk (Silver Axe), 20 AS, 9 Def
Caeser 20/1: 45 HP, 31 Atk (Silver Axe), 20 AS, 11 Def
Caeser with the durability lead. Roger gets 3RKO'd by anything with 22+ Atk, and 2RKO'd by anything with 29+ Atk. Caeser gets 3RKO'd by anything with 26+ Atk, and 2RKO'd by anything with 33+ Atk (aka pretty much nothing). This is a pretty significant difference, so Caeser wins here.
Then we look at growths. Caeser has 20% HP, 15% Spd, and 10% Def over Roger's 15% Str. So Caeser continues to win over Roger for the rest of the game.
This was kind of a half assed comparison, but I'll look at enemy stats if anybody disagrees. Roger only wins when he has 14 AS and Caeser has 13 AS, which lasts for about 2 levels. Then Caeser wins by a significant amount from promotion on. I'm thinking Caeser>Roger
It really comes down to how much you value Roger's period of doubling. Roger has 14 AS at 14-15/0, while Caeser doesn't reach it until 16-17/0. However, Caeser does win pretty significantly at promotion. Taking Chapter 20 for example (Lets take them at 20/3, they have to play catch up on levels remember):
Roger 20/3: 41 HP, 33 Atk (Silver Axe), 21 AS, 9 Def
Caeser 20/3: 46 HP, 32 Atk (Silver Axe), 21 AS, 11 Def
Now I forget if Generals have braves or not, but I'll assume they do and somebody can correct me if they don't. Both character's offence is essentially the same, so lets look at defence:
Generals: 26 Attack. That's a 2RKO for Roger, and a 3RKO for Caeser if they have braves. 3RKO for Roger and 4RKO for Caeser if they don't.
Paladins: 26-27 Attack. Caeser has the same durability as Roger against the 27 atk ones, but wins again for the 26 Attack ones.
So really, it comes down to Roger's short doubling lead, over Caeser's durability lead from promotion onwards. And yes, they should be right next to each other.
