  1. EiMM is starting soon, I don't know when this game is and I don't have the time to play 2 mafia games at once so I'll be withdrawing my sign up for now until EiMM finishes. Sorry about that.

  2. I like the idea and I don't know how much you've actually planned, but I think that this is a bit too complicated for an RP. You have 16 slots for act 1 alone. An RP starting that big will only spell disaster. Start with a smaller cast and once you have things figured out, maybe open the room for a larger cast. And there's also very little detail about the background of the players and their objectives, that would be important to anyone who wants to join.

    Also, it's a bit unclear what kind of RP you're making. Will it be purely story driven, or will there be some kind of combat system at play? Also since you said that the 4 arcs occur at the same time, does that mean that you will run all 4 different stories at the same time which will converge at some point like in Radiant Dawn? I don't mean to doubt you but that might be a little too much. Especially since the players' actions can often change the RP's plot completely and you as the host will have to accommodate that. You CAN force the plot to go the direction you want it to, but that won't be pleasant for everyone involved.

    Anyway, that's just some of my thoughts. I won't sign up just yet but I'll look forward to any further details you can provide.

  3. So I recently tried to apply the Tony Mode Patch to FE6 using the UPS Patcher and it didn't work. I've tried both the Clean Rom and a ROM with a translation patch I got a while ago (don't remember where from exactly).

    Can anybody direct me to the translation patch I need to use to apply FE6's Tony Mode?

  4. There's certainly merit in the idea. Though I would suggest creating some sort of limiter so that the units created won't be too overpowered. My personal idea would be to choose between categories. For example hiring a "Volunteer" would cost much less money in exchange for hiring a unit with low bases and terrible growths that's essentially just cannon fodder, while hiring a "Mercenary" would cost significantly more money in exchange for a unit with good bases and growth.

    Of course each class would need to have their own base stats and growth so that abominations such as armor knights with high speed and low defense won't be created (though that might be fun in itself).

    Additionally, there could also be an option to choose the personality for each created character. Not to give them dialogue in the story or support conversations but rather to simply determine what they say during battle, critical hits, and when leveling up. If not, it could simply determine their expressions on their portraits, just to give them a bit of extra character.

    I appreciate the warm welcome! Right now I'm something of an assistant teacher, and I get to teach between first and sixth grade. I rotate around my school, but I'm hoping to settle down in fifth grade next year. (Mostly because I'm obsessed with my fourth graders.) 

    Liking the children you're teaching is great but be sure not to show too much favoritism and punish them when necessary. Kids are very impressionable young fellows after all. Often times it's things outside the curriculum that they will take for the rest of their lives. Don't be afraid to be strict at times, they'll thank you later. Anyways, good luck!

  6. I may not be the best person to do this, but hello and welcome do the forest! I certainly hope you'll enjoy your stay.

    I have a lot of respect for teachers since it's a big responsibility to teach someone new things and it's a job I feel that people sometimes don't appreciate enough. Though I also didn't show my teachers the respect they deserved, so I wouldn't put myself above blame. If you don't mind me asking, what grade are you teaching?

    As for Fire Emblem, my first and favorite is FE8, also known as the Sacred Stones, with FE7 being a close second. I just love the sprites they used for the GBA games. Unfortunately I haven't played Heroes since it isn't available yet in my country (Nintendo why...) but I'm looking forward to it.

    Anyways, welcome!

  7. Just checked back here and apparently there's quite a lot of animations I haven't seen before. Amazing animations if I may add.

    That being said, the Master Lord animation seems to have a problem with the links as clicking on both the male and female version lead to the female version download.

    As Hector noted, change the relation from grandson to son, considering born 1992, two years after Waver's war. That being said, interesting that Waver settled down at like 22 :p

    ((Added to completed profile list))

    I'll also change the fifth to fourth in regards to generation, hope you don't mind.

    Eh, I didn't pay much attention to the years to be honest, I'll edit his age and his actual relation to Waver.

    I made him his grandson since it would be strange if Waver's son didn't know about the Holy Grail War, it's not really a big deal though.

  9. I got a little free time and put this together.

     

    Character Name: Peter El-Melloi Velvet

    Race: Human
    Sex: Male
    Age: 25
    Faction: The Holy Church (formerly)
    Magecraft(s), if applicable: mild hypnosis, alchemy 

    Appearance: Peter is a spitting of his father Waver Velvet, also known as Lord El-Melloi II in his prime. Peter however keeps his hair short and is a little shorter than his father, often seen wearing a black coat with a golden Star of David brooch pinned on his shirt underneath.

    Personality: Peter is a man borderline obsessed with god, viewing the general populace as heretics and even the holy church as "a disgrace to the name of the Lord". However, he isn't above cooperating and forming alliances in order to achieve his own goals or using underhanded methods so long as it doesn't conflict with his interpretation of "The Lord's Laws". Other than that he is a cold and calculating man, preferring to avoid pointless confrontations and using the most efficient method possible regardless of the costs, though his arrogance and obsession at times cloud his decisions.

     

    Introduction

    Peter El-Malloi Velvet was born as the fourth generation of the Velvet family, an adopted branch of the El-Melloi line of magus. A talented magus and naturally observant, Peter grew up often being compared to his father, Waver El-Melloi Velvet. While he genuinely admired his father and his accomplishments, Peter disliked his lack of ambition and wanted to "create his own legacy", desiring to accomplish something that will set him apart despite his obvious similarities with his father. To this end, Peter left the El-Melloi household and joined the Holy Church, seeking to become an archbishop.

    What started as an effort to stand out eventually turned into an obsession as during his time trying to climb the ranks of the church, Peter became genuinely fascinated with the holy scrolls and the Lord as described in it, Peter's research into the holy scrolls led him to discover that the current Church's teachings and views has in fact deviated from what was originally written in the scrolls. This discovery led to Peter's eventual defection from the church and his attempt to (unsuccessfully) create his own church which follows the holy scrolls. Still determined and yet clueless about his next move, Peter's discovery of the "Fuyuki Holy Grail War", gave him the idea that instead of merely correcting the church's teachings, he could wish upon the holy grail to cleanse the world and restore "the true worship of the Lord".

    Imagine the controversy my character would create.

  10. War of the Lions is a great game, though quite unforgiving. A few people would suggest against starting with it, since it may deter you from wanting to play FFT. The gba and ds one is nice, if not less complex and with a simpler story line.

    I would suggest starting with the the GBA one just to get a feel of what the whole series is like and War of the Lions last, since you'd be disappointed with the other two's story after playing WoTL anyway.

    I'd also direct you to the Tactics Ogre series, particularly Let Us Cling Together which you can find on the PSP. It's essentially FFT where you can bring more people into a battle and has a branching story. If you like FFT, it's definitely something you should check out.
