Derick the Swordmaster of Doom

Gregor the Tanky Stab-Sentinel

[Blade Master Model 42]

We should just drop character specific abilities and weapon sub-proficiencies. I think using fe8 would be better than 7 because there's more classes in 8, but I'm not programming.

FFS mentioned something about Flash. Aside from trying to recreate the AI, would it be that much more difficult to make an FEF game from scratch if it means we can include abilities and custom classes and whatever?

Probably not, though I haven't touched flash in- ever. And a simple AI wouldn't be too hard to make, not for a turn based strategy game anyway.

You know, I was thinking how difficult this would be until I remembered how dumb FE AI tends to be. Find squishiest character in range, attack squishiest character in range. Sometimes they get fancy by aggroing from further than six tiles away.

The hardest part is pathfinding because I don't know much about A*.

Lookie here what I found.

Haspen might like this, but I don't know under what circumstances he uses his own tileset.

It's actually a little trickier than that, but at the same time more idiotic. The AI tends to prioritize attacking units that are potential one-round kills (thus their determination to kill your healers), and then they go after targets that cannot hit back. This can either lead to a swordsman attacking an archer, or armies of weak units breaking their weapons against an unarmed knight or paladin

Leading to my inclination to always take all my paladin's gear and use him as a mook-magnet for my lord.

You mean in the early chapters? Yeah, I do that too

Everyone does that with their pre-promotes. They're horrible XP sinks.

"Draw me like those fancy paladins. Wait what."

[freeformschooler]

That little yellow dot on Praefectus' hood in the sprite makes it look like he's wearing a Prinny or similar penguin creature. Now you can't unsee it.

* Sirus already saw that while making the sprite...

[Praefectus Screptum]

Take that off the spriteeee. CANNOT UNSEE TAKE IT OFF. *Cough also add some shoulder plates under his armor because he does have a light armor under his mantle.*

[freeformschooler]

her armor

Too late, already quoted.
