TL note: ‘Rekka’ means Flame.
A remake of Fire Emblem 7 based on FE7if, a reskin of FE7 known for its stat inflation and soundtrack. The main additions I made are the differentiating factors between weapon types, guest characters, accessories, unit skills, weapon triangle mechanics, and momentum.

Additions
Momentum
If a unit is facing an enemy and the unit has weapon advantage (indicated by the up arrow beside the weapon icon), they gain a point of momentum for each hit they land, with four points of momentum being the max they can gain. Each point of momentum grants +15 Hit, +15 Avoid, +15 Crit, and +3 damage. Momentum is lost if the unit faces an enemy at weapon disadvantage (indicated by the down arrow beside the weapon icon). Momentum is lost at disadvantage regardless of whether or not the unit is hit, but is only lost after combat, meaning the unit still keeps their momentum during the disadvantageous encounter.
At four points of momentum, units gain a 1.5x multiplier to their Speed , +3 to their Movement, and access to Exhaust. Using Exhaust allows the unit to move again after a round of combat, in exchange for losing all their momentum.
Weapon triangle changes
Units can’t be critically hit if they fight at a weapon advantage (indicated by the up arrow beside the weapon icon). Specifically, there’s a -199 crit penalty for units fighting at a disadvantage (indicated by the down arrow beside the weapon icon). This has a side effect of giving weapons that invert the weapon triangle a guaranteed chance to crit if they are at an advantage, and a guaranteed chance to be on the receiving end of a critical hit if they are at a disadvantage. Naturally, this extends to skills that invert the weapon triangle.
Skills
Each unit starts off with one passive skill and one active skill, and can gain one active skill at level 5 and another active skill at level 15. Check the screenshots section for a general idea of what they do.
Accessories
Units have 4 slots for regular items and one slot for an accessory. Accessories in this game grant skills, which are usually passive and sometimes active. These skills work the same way as inherent skills, except they’re tied to the accessory. Accessories can be gained by visiting houses and villages and can be sold for money.
Guest characters
FE7if replaces Pent, Louise, Oswin, Priscilla and Lucius with characters from other games. I kept these in originally, but who are these people? So I put in my own. Also I re-added Pent, Louise, Oswin, Priscilla, and Lucius.
Weapon characteristics
Weapon types (Slim, Steel, Silver, etc.) have new characteristics.
Slim weapons add an extra point of Momentum if Momentum can be gained.
Steel weapons cannot perform follow-up attacks when initiating combat, and are the cheapest weapon type to buy shops.
Silver weapons hit Resistance.
Blade weapons cannot initiate combat after moving.
Killer weapons have 50 base critical hit chance, Wo Dao has 70.
1-2 Melee range weapons cannot double.
Reaver weapons are guaranteed to critically hit if they are at an advantage, and are guaranteed to receive a critical hit if they are at a disadvantage.
Fire anima magic reduces target’s Strength by 3 on hit, a debuff which can be applied up to 3 times.
Electric anima magic reduces target’s Speed by 3 on hit, a debuff which can be applied up to 3 times.
Light magic reduces target’s Resistance by 3 on hit, a debuff which can be applied up to 3 times.
Dark magic reduces target’s Defense by 3 on hit, a debuff which can be applied up to 3 times.
Fimbulvetr reduces target’s Skill by 5 on hit, a debuff which can be applied up to 3 times.
Excalibur increases unit’s Speed on hit, a buff which can be applied up to 3 times.
Iron weapons work as normal.
There are new weapons added as well. A sample can be seen in the screenshots section.
Other changes
Archers and Fighters have a 1.5x exp boost. This emulates their increased exp growth in FE7if.
Berserkers, Swordmasters, promoted Nino and promoted Lyn have +30 crit boost.
Effective weaponry deals 4x instead of 3x against their effective targets. This applies to bows as well.
Weapons with multiple effective targets however deal 3x instead of 4x.
