TheGoodHoms Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I'd like too see a Fire Emblem based in a era in time thats not just mid-evil swords and magic. I was thinking some where towards a renaissance era where we can still have swords and magic, but we could add guns to the mix. However I don't think the series would move forward past that kind of era, because revolvers and automatic fire would push too far into the modern world.

I've said mentioned before (in this thread even?) that they were legitimately considering a Fire Emblem being set on Mars before deciding to play it safe with Awakening. So it is possible for IS to do something like that. Not entirely likely but possible. Additionally guns actually did exist throughout the apparent era most Fire Emblem games are set. They just weren't widespread or practical at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RidellCrimea Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) I want crossbows to return. Also, I want Clerics to have the ability to counter attacks with their staves again. Edited January 29, 2016 by RidellCrimea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybe Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Also, I want Clerics to have the ability to counter attacks with their staves again. yes please it was pointless but it looked so funny they need to bring that back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magical Glace Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Can I just use a boomerang ;~; I have a weird love of using them in video games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondworld Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I don't have a particular need for new weapon types, a larger variety of bows would be nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jotari Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Can I just use a boomerang ;~; I have a weird love of using them in video games. I envision it as a single weapon with no weapon rank and removed from the weapon triangle. It can attack at 1-2 range and is pretty weak but comes with the advantage of having massive durability. Maybe even make it useable with a skill like Knives in POR except it's a skill you can find and equip to anyone (except manaketes...actually yeah let's have them throw boomerangs too).

OakTree Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 It's easier to list weapons i DON'T want to see. Special mention to Schytes. They. Are. Not. Weapons, they're farming tools and are unsuitable for combat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weapons, they're farming tools and are unsuitable for combat. Well what if you have to play a chapter where you're forcibly putting down a peasant uprising and all they have are scythes and axes? Or just go full demon and have a literal monster fight/join your army. I don't think either of those cases would be too incongruous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see that, but only if they have crappy stats (for the first idea) or are magic-based (for the second one). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OakTree Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Anything's a weapon if you want it to be/intend for it to be one That doean't apply to all cases, i can make an axe into a weapon if i want to, same thing for hammers and some other things, schythes however, are unsuitable for combat, not only is the blade on the inside, which makes it very difficult to actually land a hit with it, it's weight is also much more unbalanced than other polearms. Trying to turn a schythe into a weapon is as practical as turning a stick into a weapon (And depending on the thickness of the stick, it would actually make for a better weapon).

The boomerang suggestion would also be fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scythe was actually used as a weapon in medieval times. It's not the type of scythe people are used to, but it was. It was pretty much the scythe but with the blade turned upwards instead of the other way. It was used against cavalry charges. It was essentially a spear with a really long blade at the end.

Actual war scythes are probably too close to spears or naginata to really warrant their inclusion. [spoiler=War Scythe] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jotari Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) Could just use them as a spear lance weapon with effectiveness against mounted units. It's not like a hammer has any business being in the axe weapon group either. Edited February 2, 2016 by Jotari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
