Key Narrative Exploration Point

Play Game of Throne amongst the Factions<= Someone Proved that seeing people massacring others for

Self-proclaimed Righteousness, and call it Politics, is a serious Entertainment.

Discover the Princess’ true identity<= It’s one of those kind of story that people seems to cared about,

Regardless of how shallow the Execution is. Nisekoi, anyone?

Find out about the Secrets in the History and Legend of the Land<= This Game is called Historica Fantasia for a Good Reason

Faction Conflicts

S SR

In each Stages,

Units or Facilities that belong to a certain faction will appear as NPCs.

Depending on Player’s Allegiance to the Faction,They will either become

Player’s Ally, Enemy, or stay Neutral.Available Missions and Events will also change.

This will give variation & replay value to a Stage.

@OtakuEatMama : @HistoricaFantasiaDevBlog : Zenneth@zodiac-alliance.com 20

@OtakuEatMama : @HistoricaFantasiaDevBlog : Zenneth@zodiac-alliance.com 21

Actions that adjust Faction Allegiance

Retreat from a CombatUnit from the Faction got DefeatedIgnore Faction’s Mission Request

Complete opposite Mission

@OtakuEatMama : @HistoricaFantasiaDevBlog : Zenneth@zodiac-alliance.com 22

Conflict of Interests Missions

IR

As a rule of thumb, Most mission will please a Faction, while pissing off another.

All of them must be accomplishable via Standard Gameplay Procedure.( Exploring, Combat., etc )

The Shrine on the Mountain is an Imperial Holy Ground,We need to Protect her from the Enemies!!!

( Captured the Shrine with Squad whose Leader is an Imperialist)( Gain a Magic Related Item )

What the Imperial thought was sacred Stones, are actually rare Ores,We can mine out the Ore to make new Weapons!

( Captured the Shrine with Squad whose Leader is an Revolutionist)( Gain a Technology Related Item )

Units for Prototype

@OtakuEatMama : @HistoricaFantasiaDevBlog : Zenneth@zodiac-alliance.com 24

Physical and MagicalAs discussed, we will minimize Façade Rules for as much as possible.

PhyAtk => PhyDef, MagAtk => MagDefIs mainly Façade. As such, we need to design a new Rule

Standard attacks that can get DodgedDamage can be reduce by Defense

Once Casted, Magical Damage Guaranteed a Hit & Ignore Defense

However, it can get Dispelled

@OtakuEatMama : @HistoricaFantasiaDevBlog : Zenneth@zodiac-alliance.com 25

Dispel Magic

5 505

60% MR

Similar to how Magic in Warhammer works,

Each Unit in a Squad will have a Magic Resistance (MR) attribute.

The Chance of Dispelling a Spell, is the combined MR value of the Units.
