Initial: Slow, movement of 2 and mediocre - high speed for Iron Giants is fine with me. In fact, I think it's better than my suggestion of lowering speed. :P

I don't know much about skills, but I'll contribute with the sprites.
I've finished a quick sprite for the skeleton.

Perfect but uh... where's the portrait?

Haha. I forgot the portrait!!! hmm..
I was going to be late for school so I didn't have time to place it.

I still need to edit it once I go home so it isn't officially finished yet, but playable.

Great work Mike. So, Goblin will be done as well? ^^
Kindly upload the images to other image hosting sites. I can't view imageshack. Thanks.

Quote from: "LastingDawn"The only way to get rid of it is to set yourself on fire.
liking this a lot!

there are tons of other ideas for other monsters that are definitely possible sprite-wise such as
Death Claw
http://www.ffcompendium.com/h/espmon/deathclaw.shtml
Cactuar
http://www.ffcompendium.com/h/espmon/cactuar.shtml
Catoblepas (FFV version)
http://www.ffcompendium.com/h/espmon/catoblepas.shtml

also if that flan spite is still being worked on it could easily be used as a base for a hecteyes sprite

Oooohhh :) Catoblepas, Hecteyes, Cactuar... they're awesome. Being that FFIX is my favorite FF of all the time, I'm in love with classic FF stuff ^^

Good thinking everyone.
Well, here's the finished Skeleton sprite.
Test it everyone!

I'm going to submit this in the site submissions
if I ever finish more palettes.

You should submit it anyway. Ppl can add their own palettes are use the ones from the original sprite.
This is yet another thing I was planning on doing that got bone by someone else.

Edit: As a matter of fact I took the liberty to apply the other 2 original palettes...

Thank you very much Vanya, this should fix the problems.

^ Updated the palettes. The .spr file can be found on the site submissions. :)

QuoteGreat work Mike. So, Goblin will be done as well? ^^

Hmm.. maybe no, since they will not be able to equip swords?

Just throwing a random idea out there for Chocobos since i'm kinda too lazy to read through the rest of the pages i missed.

Monster Skill- Choco Gust - Deals random wind damage in a 2 AOE. Four Range Instant Cast.

Goblins should be able to equip knives, LD!! |:(
If you want to have stuff that harkens to earlier FF games that one is a must have!!

See! They almost always have a knife:

I guess I never really considered that... Alright, knife it is, but that will make them well... I shiver at their power and numbers, if they happen to get a few PA Saves along with a five hit Multi-Strike, heh... alright, Knives sound good then. If someone doesn't mind to complete the Goblin sprite, I'll be pretty much obliged to give Knives to them, hehe.

Limit them to only the weakest knife?
They've also been known to use flails and axes.

Flails and axes? That's overkill. Catoblepas would be amazing, but I prefer the VIII version.

Goblins should be fine with knives, no worry about the weakest only.

I like the idea for adding Cactuars, but... can anyone imagine them equipping any gear? Accessories might work, but I have no real knowledge of the accessories in Mercernaries. Maybe something that increases their ungodly evasion rates? I can only imagine seeing them equipped with cloaks to find them rather cute and comedic. ^^

Might as well just recolor a Behemoth in that case

Knives on Goblins is a great idea! Don't limit them too much on knives though... make their strongest possible knife have WP 5 or so? (equivalent of platina dagger)

I'd imagine cactuars would have high c-ev... no equips needed
