Bolt is the name of the Thunder spell in Final Fantasy Tactics if I recall. Sounds like an interesting game.

Kinda long chain.

Is there a reason you don't want to just call Spell a type of Gear/Weapon? I've played next to no FF, but isn't it "cast spell *or* attack with weapon?"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1678761812929125529.post-63620636209272490942012-06-13T10:06:15.531-04:002012-06-13T10:06:15.531-04:00Not really - I mostly was looking to capture the s...Not really - I mostly was looking to capture the spirit of it without literally copying it.
