*Footsteps echo down a castle hallway..a cloaked man being chased by several armored guards. A burst of blue light, a cackle of electricity, and one of the guards fall, the others still in hot pursuit...*
"For the greater good...to maintain the peace we have worked so hard to create..." -- Iitian High Counselor
*The chase continues down twisting cooridors and elaborate chambers, until the main entrance becomes visible...a sillouette in the doorway blocks the path, the hooded man stops and looks on*
You should have stayed quiet Reitan...It won't be the same here without you..

The Battle System
A few of you may be familiar with GubiD's TBS, in short, we've raped it.
Fuck SP, we use Energy!Instead of having mana or sp, we have energy. Basically, this prevents the player from spamming all of the best skills in one turn. At the start of each actor's turn, they gain some energy (players with less armor gain more energy, Leon will gain the most out of all characters). Moving and attacking, in addition to skills take energy.
Support Conversations
No turn crap.If you've ever played Fire Emblem, you'll know what support conversations are. For those of you who have never played FE, support conversations are conversations that can be seen if two characters spend enough time on the field of battle together. Our system is somewhat different than fire emblem, instead of wasting time not ending the battle to keep two characters next to each other, if two characters just participate in a battle, and the end of the battle the conversation will appear.
Characters
(concept art by NAMKCOR, NOT finished art)[spoiler=Mathim](https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv259%2Fpsycho-mantis%2FMathim__Scrap__by_NAMKCOR.png&hash=a2d40d4a8cb276c5f134200b296cc743d8266865)
Full Name: Mathim Olahnus
Age: 27
Personality: Incredibly overconfident. Prone to great outbursts of anger. No religion, but follows a code of morals.
Backstory: Mathim is the bastard child of a land owning noble. His mother was unable to provide for him, so he was given to a monastery, where he was trained in martial arts. Ironically, instead of growing up to be religious warrior, Mathim renounced god, refusing to see how a merciful god existed with so much suffering in the world. After leaving the monastery to see the rest of the world, Mathim wandered around aimlessly, doing whatever it took to make money, as long as it stayed within his moral code.

[spoiler=Leon](https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv259%2Fpsycho-mantis%2FLeon__Scrap__by_NAMKCOR.png&hash=eedd2e0cf06bef22510d6b5c6e46540dca07950b)
Full Name: Leon Cystilio
Age: 24
Personality: easy going and sarcastic, he likes to poke fun at people harmlessly, though many would take what he says as a pure insult. He's generally the comic relief of the group, keeping morale up and a smile on peoples' faces. He's a good friend and would stand by those he forms bonds with
Backstory: Leon is a wandering soul, going wherever the wind takes him. He claims to be a beast-man from a small village hidden in a mountain range, though he has yet to speak a name or even a location when asked.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Carla](https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv259%2Fpsycho-mantis%2FCarla__scrap__by_NAMKCOR.png&hash=b7c9c7a4a43e036f9a325f9babcebb0a1d36ad79)
Full Name: Carla Fae
Age: 22
Personality: Tsundere, self-confident, motherly in times of need
Backstory: Her family was exiled during the early years of the High Counselor's reign, "For the greater good..." and her parents resisted and were killed. She lived in a settlement of outcasts and took care of the younger orphans who nobody even looked at. (this is where she got her motherly instincts) She began working as a jester on the streets to make enough money to get the rag-tag family by.

[spoiler=Rayner]
(https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv259%2Fpsycho-mantis%2FRaynerBattler.png&hash=f36e6c4f202b320e378b3d3b16ce82c93f37c881)
Full Name: Rayner Stryker
Age: 23
Personality: Rayner is a very kind and gentle man; very helpful when the need arises. However, around sexy women, he is very flirtatious and sometimes vulgar.
Backstory: Born in Iita to a high ranking officer in the military and a prostitute, Rayner grew up around weapons and sex. His father was never around enough to discipline him--especially when he died in battle--and his mother was always whoring herself out to men and women alike, thus causing him to become the man he became. Parentless and alone, he joined the ranks of the military, learning how to use quite a few different weapons. He enjoyed spears the most. He was always put on guard duty, despite his expertise with spears.

[Spoiler=Reitan]

Full Name: Reitan Harvack
Age: 34
Personality: Type A personality, a born leader. He's loyal to his nation and his friends, and has high moral standards. Is very calm and collected, and doesn't get angry very often. Simply commands authority as though second nature.
Backstory: Formerly a loyal Iitian subject, he was exiled to the surface 5 years ago due to 'crimes against the state,' and was never heard from since. Little is known about his wareabouts now, but he is rumored to be amassing an army to invade the Iitian capital, if he is not already dead.[/spoiler]

heh, both Falcon and Nouman agreed that each team would have a teaser topic.
so it kinda is necessary ;)
Nightwolf wasn't here when that was announced, so he wouldn't know about it.
Anyways, Leon seems very familiar for some reason. I wonder why that is, Namkcor? :V

tee hee hee
cuz I'm awesome, that's why
and cuz my persona is based off of a Free Form RP character that I use on IRC
and I'm rather short on ideas at the moment, so I just grabbed what I had =x
Lol, Rayner like Jim Raynor. :V Anyways, despite being the opposite guild, I look forward to playing your game :) But our guild's game, too :D

same moo. I look forward to seeing two amazing games out of this
A TBS <3 If it works well, that's definitely a huge plus in my book.
Tactics Battle System <3
Here's the daily update:

Just an oldish screenshot of Rune's animated custom menu system. It supports every actor in the party. Option 7 shall be replaced with the config menu once I fix it so you can't leave the Team battle mode.
I know you haven't got character sketches and didn't make much of character databases but ALEXUS
FALCON, I DID NOT EXPECT THIS FROM YOU ;-;
its awesome otherwise <3
It's just a test display, you twat
I lol'd at the haxed Arshes, though. :V
Updated first post with support conversation info.

Anyone spams one more time in this topic about arshes and I'll fuck them up.
I LOVE BAG !
Seriously, TBS+CMS+Awesomeness=Badass.
ninjabump for character update
Nice work BAG ^^
I will look forward to a nice game :D
Alright, here's the deal with character abilities.
Each character has a special ability that they can use in battle, I'll give a rundown of all the characters up so far.
Mathim - Counter - Any attack or skill used on Mathim will be counterattacked as long as the enemy is next to Mathim.
Leon - Guerilla Tactics - Leon will move up to two spaces backwards at the end of his turn.
Anathala - Cover - Ann will take the damage of any ally near her who is low on HP.
Rayner - Iron Skin - When Rayner is below 20%, his defenses triple.
On Leon, does he do that everytime, or is it voluntary?
Ask NAMKCOR. :P
after every melee attack. not after magic or anything.

so couldnt that potentially cause the player jeopardize themselves in tight situations?

not if you're smart. If it's a tight spot, you'd have to take it into account ;)
BUMP FOR BADASS AWESOME REITAN
That sounds like some quite fun tactical problems :3
I love double edge swords ^_^

It HAS to happen after every melee attack? If so that makes me want him to die.
You want Leon to move away from his enemies, his defense his probably going to be in the top 5 lowest.

he has low defence, and low hitpoints.
he is a quick striker. You have him attack, and then he jumps back two squares to avoid counterattacks, and to give you room to put someone in there so that he isn't destroyed in the next turn.
I don't see how it makes you want to let him die.
and honestly, you're not required to use everyone
It seems crappy and awkward to have it mandatory though. I guess it's a preference thing.
you'll see when it's applied in game.
We'll see about that, mister! :mad: >:-(
...Please don't have Falcon break my thumbs. ;9
WTF YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE GONE HALO

he'll be the most ineffective meat shield ever, and you'll lose out on his really awesome abilities [top secret]
yeah but I do that all the time in strategy games :/
except fire emblem,
but anyway, I think it should be optional.
well you're on gold team ;)
You should respect my opinion as a consumer >:|
If we gave a shit about your opinion, we would have put you in RMRK+ or EA
That was uncalled for
It was, I'm sorry.
Do you need a hug :)
Sure
*Caro Hugs Forcystus for Falcon*
:V Ok guys, No moar Spamming Let's keep it clean!
BUUUUUUUUUUMP
DEMO UPLOADED, CHECK FIRST POST
BAG: Redux will finish the game, to be posted at a later date (date TBA)
