Jubby Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Mother of crap. If someone were to redesign the convo system with ASM, (which I imagine would take INSANE amount of code... and considering ASM is 1:1 with machine code, it's going to be HUGE) they might as well remake FE9 with the FE10 engine. Do it, Rey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 wrt the archer thing, keep in mind; + I remember something in the last Sacred Dawn thread (dunno whether it's staying) about different people pursuing different promotions, not just class-based. So, like, I'd assume Alice would go Ranger, while Ryan and Leonardo stay as snipers. + This is IF Leonardo is playable, and if he is, IF he joins up now. Neither is confirmed.

Nanami Touko Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Both of your assumptions are wrong, Furet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I never assumed he wasn't recruitable, merely that it was a possibility. ... I was fairly sold on the first point, but oh well. (Unless the point is right and I got them in the wrong order... I dunno, I imagined Alice as more hunteresque and Leonardo... as a sniper. But I digress.)

Nanami Touko Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Ryan is the ranger and I think it's a pretty big duh that Leonardo's gonna be recruitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Ryan is the ranger and I think it's a pretty big duh that Leonardo's gonna be recruitable. The chances of him not being recruitable at this stage and level > the chances of him being reclassed to shaman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Sage Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) Sothe and Volug should totally be in this hack. Much more interesting characters than scrubs like Micaiah. Plus who can say no to Volug's abs? Edited January 25, 2012 by Gafgarion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragontaur Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Lol at the first idea. While I agree that three early archers is wtf ridiculous, Leo becoming a shaman? What? How in the who where? And Ray only has a grasp over event editing. He doesn't know the first thing about ASM. lol, I meant Leo being/starting out as a shaman, not as an archer. Doi on my part. Why as a shaman? Well, I figured that the Dawn Brigade would need/want a magic user (maybe for an upcoming event(s) that have previously happened prior to the main character's party meeting the Dawn Brigade or events that will take place in the future) As I said before, it is written in Leonardo's bio: "Leo is composed and mature." That would make Leonardo more interesting to say the least, wouldn't it? Perhaps the whole reason for wanting Leo to be a shaman instead of an archer is that there are THREE archers and having another magic user (a shaman) in this part of the story would be interesting, and encourage the players/onlookers to think "Why does this Dawn Brigade have a shaman in their group?"

Nanami Touko Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 If you can give one good reason as to why Leo being a shaman would make sense, given that there has never been any indication of him knowing anything of any magic, then your idea might be thought about :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer is no. Because, I'm sorry, but the reasoning is dumb. And yes, I do realize I have one too many archers so early, but nuts to that. :c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) Not to mention that if Ray wants to stay at least somewhat true to Radiant Dawn (where the fact that there is a character 'Leonardo' is not a coincidence), shaman Leo would make little to no sense. ninja'd Edited January 25, 2012 by Camtech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Well, I figured that the Dawn Brigade would need/want a magic user Like maybe a light mage. ... Wait. Look, the exact makeup of the earlygame being slanted towards bowmen that take different promotion paths is inconvenient. The solution isn't to reclass THE CANONICAL ONE.

HF Makalov Fanboy Kai Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 in that case, shouldn't one of the two already existing archers be reclassed to something esle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Hm. How should I word this... no. Seriously, nobody complains about a paladin and two cavaliers joining together, in the SAME CHAPTER. This is the same, but in the opposite order of time (promoted, a Ranger and two Snipers. Or possibly the other way around, but whatever). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanami Touko Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Dei, I do believe he meant Treck, Noah and Zealot joining in chapter 7 of FE6. And yeah, spoiler alert: MK's not going to change the archers. Dealwithit :3c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I actually meant Alan, Lance and Marcus, but hey! That just proves my point. Meanwhile, back on topic... I just noticed Peg Knights got a minor Con upgrade AND an aid boost. That will significantly raise my chances of using them, at the least...

That will significantly raise my chances of using them, at the least... The aid boost is actually something there for generics, since they're not registered as female. :c The Con boost is legit, though, as well as the general weight reduction all around, so it makes the Pegasus Knight more viable of a foe.

Dark Sage Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Do you really have nothing better to do than make the weakest of trolly comments? :P I am quite serious in my requests for the two to make it into this hack. Sothe is a member of the DB. He could serve the gameplay niche of being a promoted thief in case someone doesn't want to train one up and he's an important part of Micaiah's character. Volug is a fairly popular character on these forums and he could serve the unique role of a nonhuman character on the team. I don't see why Volug shouldn't be in the game. He's a pretty cool guy.

Dark Sage Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Volug can be "halfshifted" (aka, be a palette swapped Mauthe Doog or something). This works because Volug is constantly half-shifted throughout RD, so it fits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
