When they accumulate enough, they get their turn.•Turns are measured by when each unit does their turn. After each turn, all units' turn values are incremented based on their speed values.RPG elements•Characters will have:•Level•Skills•Stats•Brief back storyCharacter Statistics•Health Points (HP) – amount of life a character has•Material Pool (MP) – amount of material a character can use. Used for skills•Attack (atk) – Increases possible damage done to an enemy unit.•Defense (def) – Decreases the possible damage taken from an enemy unit.•Material Attack (matk) – Increases possible effectiveness of material based attacks.•Material Defense (mdef) – Decreases the possible damage of enemy material based skills•Accuracy – Increases the possibility of hitting an enemy with a skill/attck•Agility – decreases the likelyhood of an enemy successfully hitting you with a skill/attack•Speed – the speed at which a unit's turn comes up.Damage Calculations(and other formula ideas as well)**face = when facing opponent, what face of theirs do you see? Faces: front = 0, side = 20, back = 40Damage = (attack – (defense/4)) * 3 + random(30% attack) + faceDamage = (m-attack – (m-defense/4)) * 3 + random(30% attack)Dodge = If (random(100%) > (accuracy * 6 – agility+face)) Dodge Else ---> Hit Turn Counter Increase += Speed/2Skill Hit = (Skill's Accuracy + Character Accuracy) * 6 – agility + face **used for skills like sleep, poison, and petrifyCharacter Classes•The units a player controls are made up of different character classes•Each class has unique abilities that allows them to perform specialized roles•Roles include: a tank (or defender), damage dealers (ranged riflemen and close combat warriors), material users (harvesters), and healers/medics•Some classes may provide other utility that is secondary to their designated role•A strong player will use characters effectively based on the unit’s class and the current in-game situationClasses (continued) Tank Class•High: defense, health•Average: strength, speed•Low: m-attack, m-defense, accuracy,agility•Used to protect other, more fragile units•Healer•High: m-attack, m-defense•Medium: defense, speed•Low: health, attack, accuracy, agility•Can restore other units’ health at close range and at a distanceClasses (continued)•Ranged Attacker (Riflemen)•High: attack, speed•Medium: accuracy, m-attack•Low: defense, agility,m-defense•Effective at dealing damage from a distance; will be at a disadvantage when close to the opponent•Close Combat Attacker (warrior)•Very high attack strength, and defense •Most effectively used when protected by a tank unit•Material User (Harvester)•High: m-attack, m-defense•Medium: accuracy•Low: defense, agility, attack, defense•Effective at dealing damage from a distance; will be at a disadvantage when close to the opponent•Utility•Some classes will have utility beyond their primary roles•Utility might include, for example, putting opponent characters to sleep, or raising stat valuesStatus Effects•Positive (increase stats): •Atk, Def, MAtk, MDef, Spd Up (temp)•Raise (recover lost unit) •Negative (decrease stats):•Atk, Def, MAtk, MDef, Spd Down (temp)•Poison•Sleep•PetrifyThe End•Any Questions or
