How can I recreate the simplicity and straightforwardness of

4e and Legend.

Could you elaborate a bit on what exactly sets Strike apart? I've seen it mentioned and looked it up but I don't really have a strong grasp of what makes the system unique.

4e might not be a bad idea.

Have you seen this?

No, I have not! Thanks, I'll give it a look.

Just code up the backend processes of how Fire emblem games run the rolls for combat, draw a grid on a piece of paper, and then figure out what you're going to use for unit markers.

Fire emblem and other turn-based RPGs are easy to run combat in, because all you need is either percent dice or a random number generator, and some minor scripts to shortcut the calculations.

Nothing really set's it apart? It's pared down 4e.

It's a d100 system with some very basic +/- statistics.

Strenght - Defense = damage
(Flat bonus+Skill) - (Luck/2+Skill/2+Cover) = Chance to hit

Or something like that. I'm not a 100% on how all the formula look like, but they're not very complicated, and if they are complicated you can just simplify them for play.

Then, make a character progression system where players assign percentages to all stats and try to roll under with their d100.

As for skill rolls, just something simple like attribute+Profession will do. I suggest looking at how Barbarians of Lemuria does it. I'd personally do a d10 pool system for skills. Players have to roll at least one 10 to succeed. The GM can assign higher difficulty by requiring multiple results of 10.

There's your system.

I've made a 1:1 mechanical recreation of Fire Emblem in Roll20.

Pdf related is a pitch from the "official" Strike! thread over the SA forums.

Basically, it's a very streamlined game focused on keeping the action going with a similarly streamlined, quick, but tactically deep tactical module.

And here's a short combat example.

There are options for more or less complexity (weakness-wheel / Simple classes) to make it fit better with FE.
