As some of you may know, I hosted a tactical forum rpg in the style of Fire Emblem a few years back. I figure it's been entirely too long since the discontinuation of the game, and I'm reviving it!

Rules:
The game will be phase-based, much like the fire emblem games. Everyone controls one character, who they can move and attack/use items/wait with in Player phase. After all have posted a move, they are executed in the order they were posted, and the battle'll switch to enemy phase, in which the enemies will actively try to kill your team members. I will control the enemy, and I will be an evil A.I., so if I can kill someone, I will. Dead characters are lost forever, but if your character dies, you are free to create a new one.
The weapon triangle applies, which means attacking enemies holding swords with lances, enemies holding lances with axes or enemies holding axes with swords will provide 1 bonus to weapon strength, and 15% to hit chance, while attacking enemies holding swords with axes, enemies holding axes with lances or enemies holding lances with swords will provide a 1 penalty to weapon strength, and a 15% penalty to hit chance.


If you sign up, state your character's name, and pick any of the classes below!

Starter classes:
-Mercenary, equips swords.
-Soldier, equips lances.
-Fighter, equips axes.
-Archer, equips bows, cannot counter direct hits.


Other classes:
-Thief, equips daggers, weak, but fast and can open locked doors/chests.
-Cavalier, equips lances/swords, powerful but difficult to master both weapons, on horseback.
-Knight, equips lances, high defense but very slow.
-Myrmidon, equips swords, high speed and skill.
-Mage, equips anima magic.
-Monk, equips light magic.
-Shaman, equips dark magic.
-Cleric, equips staves, cannot counter.
-Pegasus Knight, equips lances, can fly over obstacles.
-Wyvern Rider, equips axes, can fly over obstacles.
-Troubadour, equips staves, on horseback.
-Nomad, equips bows, on horseback.
-Pirate, equips axes, can swim in water.
-Bard, equips rings, can allow a unit to move twice or give buffs, cannot counter.

Special:
-Lord, equips ???, stats ???, heavily story-influential


Only one person may pick any given class. If you choose a Starter class, you will start in the first battle. If you pick any other class, you will appear in the game in later battles. In general, more basic classes will appear earlier. Infantry classes first, then horseback classes, then magic classes. The order in which the classes are chosen will also affect what battle they first appear in.

Battle formulas:
Attack Speed = Speed, unless Weapon Weight > Constitution, in which case it's Speed + Constitution - Weapon Weight
Accuracy = ((Weapon Hit + Skill*2 + Luck/2)attacker) - ((Attack speed*2 + Luck)defender) + Triangle bonus
Damage = ((Strength + Weapon Might + Triangle bonus)attacker) - ((Defense)defender)
Critical Damage = Damage*3
Critical chance = ((Weapon Critical + Skill/2)attacker) - (Luck)defender)
If a character's attack speed is 4 higher than the opponent's, they can attack twice.

I've been playing Fire Emblem: Blazing Sword and I love it! I'm fucking in!

Ezra the Mercenary joins the party!

(...Just to clarify in case isn't clear, Ezra is male... So that.)
Lyria the Myrmidon - because I like to go fast and crit hard. :D
unity
You're magical to me.

Juniper the Fighter, please :DDDD I've never played in one of these but it sounds fun ^_^
HawkeyeAtton the Archer.

Because Liberty stole the Myrmidon class! >:(

I decided it would be unfair to those who weren't around 2 years ago to give Avee and Marrend a priority, so I removed the priority.

This is filling up faster than I thought it would. :D We might even be able to get the first turn done tonight if a Soldier signs up!

LockeZ
I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

I don't trust any a yall with strategy, so I'mma have to roll Isadora the Pegasus to rescue your asses. I assume this means I won't appear for a while.

Advice to anyone who wants to play an advanced class but also wants to play immediately: roll a soldier, and then die after two or three battles.

Will there be usable and passive skills we can learn, like in the Radiance games, or are we in old school simple mode?

This sounds neat.

You can call me Garret the Thief. Because there's no assassin class and myrmidon is taken.
I'll be Myra the Cavalier because Liberty stole my favourite class. >< And I'll be on hand to rescue people as well.
If there is passive skills like FE9/10, then Canto and Sol ( mastery skill ) juice for the win. >:D

A Fire Emblem forum game? I'm so in.

I'll be Kalas the Soldier because no one ever uses soldiers (from what I've seen). Time to represent!

Alright! That's the Starter classes filled out. I'll get everything ready and we'll start!

People can still sign up at any time, of course.

We need a knight and one of the healer classes, or this game will have a lot of dying.

If you want to never be able to attack, I guess.

I will control the enemy, and I will be an evil A.I., so if I can kill someone, I will. Dead characters are lost forever, but if your character dies, you are free to create a new one.


There will be vulneraries in this battle, but not all characters will have one. Yes, the game will indeed involve a lot of dying, because I will not be able to handle 20 players at once.

W3:
"Atton... Atton, wake up..."
"Not now, the sun is barely up..."
"I'm serious, Atton, you HAVE to wake up!"
"I hurt my back last night..."
"I must say, you were going at it rather ferociously, but none of that matters now!"
"What is it Juni, can this not wait half another hour?"
"Atton, the castle, it is burning!"
"What did you say?!"
"We're being raided. We must leave immediately!"
"Tom and Lisa! They were staying with their uncle across the river!"
"Smoke is rising from your brother's village..."
"No... Not Tom... Not Lisa..."
"We must run, before they are here! If there is any chance our children are still alive, we will find them."

"I... did this... These screams... All of this is my fault...
No, they deserved it. Mallory says this valley was coordinating an attack on our kingdom. I did what was right."

Turn 1 starts now! It is now player phase.

You may post your actions in this form: A1 - Action, or Wait, or A1 - Wait, etc.

The square you want to move to must be within your movement range. (Which is 5 for all playable characters at this point.)

Actions can be:
- equipping another held weapon (does not count as an action, another action may be used afterwards)
- attacking a unit of another colour that is the valid range away from you (2 for bows, 1 for melee weapons)
- using an item
- giving an item to an adjacent player of the same colour.
- talking to an adjacent unit of a different colour. (blue only)(Non-boss characters with names are generally recruitable. Having the right character talk to them will turn them into blue units. (Boss characters are characters with a shield on the bottom right of their sprite.))
- visiting a village (blue only) (When a village is visited before it is destroyed by bandits, something good happens.)

Goal: Have any blue unit seize E17.

New people may still sign up! (Although at this point, people will likely have to wait until battle 3 or 4 already) Also, there are no rules of any kind against discussing tactics.

I could probably be talked into doing this again if Oharu retains her promotion. Though, I guess that would mean she wouldn't be available until the next mission to be more fair about it.

*Edit: Also, the game has already started!

Oharu became a knight (which isn't technically a promotion, but it's more useful than a soldier.) The knight class is still open, so you're free to sign her back up!

But yes, you are not in battle 1.

Edit: Changed the title so the rpg is tactical, and not the forum. (If my little knowledge of Japanese is correct.) Although this also sounds wrong in my ears. forum rpg, is that a forum of an rpg or an rpg of a forum?
