The Files

Note: in order to save space and upload the whole thing as one file, I had to use RAR compression (it was 300kb too big in zip format). Since, for some reason the upload scripting around here won't let you upload RAR files, I renamed the file to Cloudrarnot.zip. Rename it to Cloud.rar, and use either (a) Powerarchiver, (b) WinRAR, or (c) Winace to unzip it.

And when it does come out, what will it be called FF XIII. :D

Isn't FFXII going to be out in about a month. Will you be waiting to to add from that one.

:goodjob: :goodjob:

You bet yer ass I will. As soon as I can get a hold of a strategy guide, I'll be formulating plans for adding stuff from that game. From what I've been able to gather, it's set in the same world as FFT:A, but It also has some much-needed info about Romanda (which is only vaguely referred to in most FFT references). I guarantee you that one of the UU's is going to be a Viera Ranger :Groucho: (I can modify my Cat ears to get the proper effect).

In the meantime, I'll be working on FFI & II (since I just bought the Strategy guide for the Gameboy version).

As for the Mod's title, it is (drumroll): Final Fantasy Civilization III Conquests
 
FF Tactics is one of the best games of all time IMHO.

Cloud was in that one, very powerful, more than just a cameo. Maybe he'll show up in FFXII.
 
Cloud (or at least some reference to him) has shown up in at least 5 games that Square-Enix has released since FF VII: He was one of the secret charachters (along with Tifa (my domestic advisor for the mod) and Sephiroth (my Military advisor in the mod), he and Aeris were in FFT, In FF IX, if you go into the weapon shop in Lindblum and examine the huge meat-cleaver looking swords on the wall, Zidane will say, "I once knew this spiky-haired guy who used swords like these," Cloud was also in Kingdom Hearts, along with Aeris, Yuffie, Tidus, Rikku, Selphie, Squall, Cid Highwind (he operated the Synth/item shop in the first town you go to after the darkness devours your world), and Sephiroth, Again. Finally, I saw in the latest Game Informer magazine where Cloud (and a number of other FF charachters) show up as "tokens" in this Monopoly-style game that was originally published by Enix. As you can see, Cloud's one busy guy. :D

Say, if you want a real view of how the mod is coming, drop by the Stories and Tales Section in a couple of hours. I'll be soon starting on my public playtest story game (I'm trying to get a few more advisors done beforehand, though).

FFT:A is a disgrace to FFT, but that aside, lovely leaderhead.
 
Thanks for the compliments. BTW, if you're interested in the mod, you might want to drop by the Civ III Stories and Tales section of these here forums ;)

Hunter: Everyone's got their opinions, but I had three good reasons for adding Kiltia (I named the FFT: A based faction after the civilization that made the Grand Grimoire that transports the main charachters to that world): #1: There are 31 civs in total, with IV-XI Tactic AND Tactics Advanced, that will only account for roughly 21 civs. #2: They have the Bangaa and Viera, IMO the coolest (and hottest in the case of the Viera) races in all of FF. #3: It finally gives me a third Mid-eastern style FF civ (from what I saw of the screenshots and concept art in the FFT:A strategy guide, everything is very heavily based on mideastern themes, from clothing to archietecture).

From what I've been able to gather from the FF I & II strategy guide, I may be able to add three, possibly four more civs, bringing the total up to 25. If XII or the Chains of Promethia expasion for XI don't bring up much more, I may be forced to use Chrono-Trigger and Seiken Densetsu (legend of mana, or FF Adventure as it was originally called) to fill out the rest of the civs (or do like Embryodead and just leave it at 25 or 26 civs). I've been trying to figure out what to do with FF: CC, but that game is so different from the standard FF game that I'm putting off doing anything with that until I've worked out some kind of idea for Leaders and stuff.
 
AUGH! Cloud got a haircut, apparently... Its just not cloud without the Giant Friggin spikes....
 
can't open the folder!!!!!!! help!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ummm, have you tried renaming the file to cloud.rar and downloading any of the three archiving programs that I listed above?
 
Ok, I've finally updated this LH, since I've managed to obtain better figures, props and hair since making the original.. Updated files and previews are in the first post.
 
It's the Makou eyes of all who were in the SOLDIER program ;)

I basically based this new version mostly off of the Advent Children version of cloud, with a bit of the Original Nomura concept art thrown in (especially with the shirt and the eyes)
 
Looks good, Hikaro. Much more suitable than the original. Good job. :goodjob: :)
