Better than expected

I thoroughly enjoyed this game, which I did not expect. The fact that it was on a portable system made me lower my expectations and I felt that I was slapped in the face for even lowering them one bit. If you enjoyed the first Valkyria Chronicles there is no doubt you will also enjoy the second.
The character customization in this game is also fantastic. It's nice to mold the characters into what you want rather than just what the game defaults them as. Also being able to customize your tank made some missions so much easier and how you tank is customized could dramatically change your strategy for any mission.
My only qualm with this game is that story seemed poorly paced and the climax, to me, occurs in the middle of the game rather than at the end. However, the gameplay and the fun characters mask that a little bit.
The gameplay is almost identical to the first game. The main difference is that if you lost your leader, you could still go on and also if your tank was blown up, you could still move on. A morale meter was added instead. Defeating enemies and capturing base camps would boost the moral, and allies being defeated and allied base camps captured would lower it. If this meter reached zero, it would result in a mission failure (which only happened to me once).
All in all, this game was fantastic and I'm still playing it now that I've beaten it and got all the new game + features.

This games is just as good if not better than Valkyria Chonicles. The best part is you can take it anywhere. So the graphics may not be as nice and you have to read almost everything but, it's a PSP game, you can't have everything. Still an awesome, solid game.
