Regarding Historical Accuracy
This is a story set in 1920s Turkey/Greece, during the Turkish Wars of Independence. The core plot
of the game is based on a true tale, the locations are real places, the events occur within historically accurate timeframes. However, any and all remaining aspects (including, but not limited to, the characters, their names, their apperances and personalities, their classes, certain other plotpoints and routes) are purely fiction and are not meant to represent history. Obviously, there weren’t mages and flying horses and flying dragons in the war, were there?
Keep in mind that some aspects of the main story may not be completely accurate. It’s based on a story that spread via word of mouth among the people who lived through these times; there’s little to no written work about it. I first heard about it when I travelled to the west of Turkey some time ago; I talked with many villagers from the area and pieced together my own version of the tale. There still are some fictional elements in the story as well, such as many of the characters. There isn’t much information available about the common folk who fought the battles, so I had no other choice.
About Skills
Basically, no character at any point will ever have more than two skills, excluding stuff like Steal
and Canto. Everyone has one personal, and some promoted classes have one class skill.
Enemies with a few exceptions (like bosses) don’t have skills.
Content Rating
If I had to give this hack an age rating…
T for Teen: Fantasy Violence, Suggestive Themes, Language, Drug Reference.
The “Violence” is basically the same as in regular FE8. There are some references and general innuendo, but nothing more than what most other T-rated games have. “Shit” is said twice or so. There are general mature themes, but nothing too extreme. This rating may be adjusted depending on feedback.
