Hello everyone. I’m Zero, the guy you probably recognize best from the either credits of Embrace of the Fog or from the Dies Emblem cast.
Today I’m here to present Ambition’s Call: Silver, a game I started working on back in November of 2022. After some ups, some downs, and a whole slew of prior projects that just did not work out, I’ve finally reached a point where it’s ready for release! (or a demo, at least.)
But just what is Ambition’s Call and what makes it so Silver? Well, this game is a project made in the Lex Talionis engine by rainlash that aims for a more traditional Fire Emblem experience compared to other games made in the engine. Despite that, it still offers it’s own approach that I hope will be a fun and enjoyable experience.
Backstory
On the northern continent of Raya, four great nations exist in relative harmony. The proud empire of Dagda to the west, the holy queendom of Belenus to the north, the merchant commonwealth of Callieach to the south, and to the east, the mountainous united kingdom of Eostre, where our current story takes place.
Princess Emilia Leonhart Airgetlam, the only child of the current High King Duncan, has been kidnapped by a renowned mercenary band known as the Drake’s Shadow. However Aeolian, one of it’s members, decides to break her out and bring her back to her home.
But is that what either of them really want?
Features
Over 60 planned playable units.
28 planned chapters with 5 gaiden chapters sprinkled throughout the latter half (14 onward).
Movement skills on every unit to offer a more tactical approach.
Some new classes and items to play around with.
A planned fully original soundtrack (current songs are placeholders).
And… Laguz? Kinda?

Known Bugs
The music doesn’t loop or end properly. The current soundtrack is meant to be a placeholder until the final release, so this may or may not be fixed when it comes to the placeholder songs.
If a Ranger uses a Sword and misses, there is a chance this will crash the game. This is fixed on my end and will be patched out in the next update.
(Some (most) things in the game at present are subject to change or alteration in future updates as per feedback from players/playtesters and my own biased discretion.)
(If you saw a post that was incredibly similar to this one down to the title itself, that was me accidentally posting it far too early and deleting it. My bad.)
