Axe units are the best units in the game. They have the best attack out of all classes. To add on, axes have tremendous weight (which comes with power). Though many axemen have very poor skill, a secret book or two will fix that. My favorite unit in Sacred Stones is Ross (hence rossrocks) because he has 30 attack at about level 15 without upgrades. He also has around 30 critical with no killer or legendary weapons. His skill is superb for a berserker (asuming that's what you evolved him into). If you reply, do not say that dark magic is better. I think that it is equally as good. Ewan is the best druid E-V-E-R!

Agree with the axe units being the best, but i rather lances, cause as Sain said in FEVII: "lances are more heroic" (and Sain is never wrong U_U).
And thought dark magic is the worst of the 3, it doesn't suck, it's just not as good as the others

thanks for helping me out, dragon

Axes after FE6 became awesome since their Hit stopped being bad. <3

And FE8's Garm is the best weapon ever. +5 Spd ftw.

Rock on bruduh!!

Axes are my favorite weapons so axe units are my favorite units as well. They are so cool and strong.

Meh, it's not that I don't like axes, but lances have always been more my style since I like well rounded characters like soldiers, since they are very reliable. They may not have a stat that is omg wtf, but since they have no huge weakness their strengths can be utilized to the fullest.

Lances are the second best. They have good attack, But not the best.

Axes >>>Lances >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Swords

This solely comes down to opinion.
I personally like sword units because they have very high hit and usually attack twice. Even if they are weak they can rack up as much damage as axe units. Also sword units usually are able avoid almost everything while axe units get hit for a lot.
But, all I can say is that Ross is probably better then any sword unit.

Hector can use swords so that makes them awsome.

Lances rock, 'cause they are goodly balanced, blaa blaa.
Geez, why everyone like axes so much?

Axes have high POW, good Hit, and the lowest Weapon Cost in the game. Their high Weight hardly matters since almost every Axe user has enough Con to use them.

Lances and Swords may be lighter and more accurate, but Lances still weigh down the Pegs, and the extra Hit isn't needed because of FE's double Random Number system for calculating Hit.
