Hello! This is a spiritual successor to the “Anything Goes” PME.
Unlike that project, everything here will start from scratch.
Units, chapters, and progression are all completely new. Lore/story is optional.
Characters will be limited to custom units not from any other project. No existing characters from FE or other media. Be creative! Limit of 3 playables per person. Daily limit of one player or boss! Non-recruitable NPC units are free. You may not submit multiple bosses in a row.
Like the “Anything Goes” PME, you may edit units, maps, weapons, items, classes, sprites, music, and mechanics. Anything available using FEBuilder is open, pretty much.
Map slots are available. Details are listed below in the Chapter Submission Guideline tab.
I will reserve/update slots in the post as they are included. Keep an eye out for any assets added.
Please provide the creators of any assets used so I can give proper credit!

Backstory
In the year 3754, the land of Rugia was overrun by the technologically advanced Khethian civilization.
The resulting conflict was massive, and Khethian technology was mostly lost or destroyed in the war.
Despite Khethian setbacks, enough tenacity allowed them to defeat Rugia after decades of warfare.
The remnants of the Khethian civilization conquered their territory, establishing the Great Empire of Dravis.
With the help of the sympathetic Ashiri, the Rugians were able to flee south towards a barren mountain pass.
They established the new kingdom of Rugia along with allied Ashiri, Thelians, and Khethians.
Nelum was mostly founded by Ashiri after the war. They became a peaceful, economically bustling kingdom.
Nelum, as well as their neighbors Thelia and Premid, became a buffer to prevent further Dravis expansion.
Ever since the conflict ended, Nelum, Thelia, Premid, and Rugia have had a strong alliance against Dravis.
Dravis, with its large and bountiful territory, has been content with this arrangement.
By the year 5817 (Jemma’s time), this arrangement is crumbling as Dravis becomes more aggressive and pro-Imperial sentiment rises across the continent.
Rugia is the kingdom of Alec and the coup. It’ll be Jemma’s closest ally after the coup’s defeat.
Said coup is led by pro-Dravis insurrectionists who wish to assimilate Rugia into the empire.
Climate: Mountainous and rugged.
Nelum starts out as Jemma’s biggest client, but eventually allies with Dravis against Rugia.
An economic titan with many allies.
Climate: Open fields. Lots of sea access. Gets colder towards the south.
Dravis is the evil country. Becomes more expansionist over the course of the story.
The loss of the ancient Khethian civilization is a sore spot for Dravis.
They wish to bring back the “old ways” of their ancestors by reviving the old technology.
Climate: Lush, vibrant plains and verdant forests.
Thelia is to the east of Nelum, the north of Rugia, and the south of Dravis.
They will probably choose to ally with Rugia in the conflict.
Climate: Dry and hot. Desert, rocky badlands, and volcanoes.
Premid is to the north of Nelum, the west of Thelia, and the southwest of Dravis.
They will probably choose to ally with Nelum and Dravis in the conflict.
Climate: Wet with marshes, swamps, and rainforest.

Chapter Submission Guideline
Starts from Chapter 1 and continues until the project is done. Gaiden chapters/route splits are fair game.
Include objectives. They can be as unorthodox as you wish, as long as it’s possible via eventing.
Include any events occurring in the map.
Tilesets/palettes may be custom, taken from any FE game, or the Repository.
Like the Portraits, avoid ripping maps straight from the repo.
