Battle Arena!!
Welcome to the Battle Arena! In this game, you pick three fighters from six different classes (Soldier, Dragoon, Thief, Monk, Black Mage and White Mage) and you battle against someone else!
How to play
First, you need to pick a party of three job classes. You can pick more than one of the same type if you like (e.g 2 Black Mages and 1 Soldier). The classes and abilities are listed below, along with the form you need to fill out to tell me your decision. You also need to decide which row they go in. For back row, attack and damage is halved. (Magic is not halved, however, so it would be wise to put your mages in the back row. Why am I advising you? You're in FF_LAND YOU SHOULD KNOW BY NOW *cough*). You may also reply to an open challenge in that comment if you want to fight immediately, or put "open challenge" if you just want a battle with anyone (but don't want to initiate it xD).
Next, I will open a new thread entitled ROUND 1, give each player their corresponding class sheets (detailing things like HP/MP, and available Abilities to use), and arbitrarily decide who goes first. Let's say it's Player A.
Both players should then reply to the ROUND 1 thread with 3 actions. A form will be provided. Order is important, so plan your moves carefully, as you are planning all three actions before they are being executed (for example, if one of your characters are low on HP, make sure you heal as your first move so that it doesn't die). An example can go like this:
1. White Mage vs Dragoon (ally) = Cure
2. Black Mage vs Soldier (enemy) = Flare
3. Dragoon vs White Mage (enemy) = no ability
So the actions for the above are player A's party consisting of White Mage, Black Mage and Dragoon; and player A's White Mage is healing the Dragoon, the Black Mage is using Flare on Player B's Soldier, and the Dragoon is attacking Player B's White Mage. (Note that no ability means "normal" attack) You can have all of your party members focus on one enemy too. In fact, this is probably encouraged lol
These decisions will be screened. It is now the end of ROUND 1.
I'll make a new thread entitled ROUND 2, and then I will post the statuses and details of how much damage each character has taken during ROUND 1, and also who goes first this round. Both players will then reply with their decisions again, and it continues until all characters from one party has been KO'ed.
