Hey, who else thinks that Chrono Cross has some characters that would be amazing converted into FFT form? They do have over 60 playable characters!
Mainly I'm thinking of Grobyc, he could be a really simple palette swap of Cloud and some minor tweaks, and then we could have an awesome cyborg assassin!
Also the mushroom guy Funguy could be amusing... Check this out for inspiration:

I am not the best spriter, but I used to do some of it for sprite comics. The problem is I don't have my software anymore, but I plan to get it going and do some of this myself soon.
Oh, wow! Chrono Cross! I'm just about to play that, as soon as I can get it running, But I think some of those characters would be awesome for conversion! I'd like to see Glenn as a Knight of some form... But then again, I really like Knights, so it's your call, Iron.
It would be like Chrono Cross Tactics... when I think of it it reminds me of Suikoden Tactics.
Actually, I was thinking the other day that if we can fully reverse-engineer FFT, it'll make a great *engine* for making new tactical RPGs based on other franchises. WildARMs comes to mind. I like the presentation, but having that stupid time limit on the battles is really annoying!.
