Tactics RPG Project - Introduction

I've been working on a Tactics RPG game for a few months now, and decided writing about it would help keep me motivated and might bring in some new ideas. So here I am. Writing about it.

A lot of this project is based on the excellent tutorial on TheLiquidFire's Blog, where he details how to implement a Tactics RPG with heavy inspiration taken from Final Fantasy Tactics. I enjoy a lot of mechanics from Fire Emblem as well, so I decided to base the mechanics of my game around both Fire Emblem and FF Tactics.

This isn't meant as a tutorial or a project to program along with - I'll mainly be detailing the high level mechanics of various systems in the game, along with an occasional code snippet. At best, maybe something I write about here will be applicable or inspire something in one of your own projects.
