Valkyria Chronicles alone is a great RPG. You can recruit a ton of characters along with the main ones to help you, you set up a squad based on who prefers to be with whom. They actually have a bit on their stat screen on who they work best with or what environment they excell at.
What was even more interesting was, if a character falls in battle and an enemy touches them, that character is dead and gone forever! Only can get them back when you start the game over.
I am still yet to lose a soldier. Or, well, I lost Jann Walker once but I ended up losing the battle and had to start over so I managed to pull everyone through on the final try. It was really sad too, his dying words were something like "Largo, I hoped you'd hold me at least once" or something similar anyway and he was literally almost resting in Largo's lap when that happened.
OH! Sad. Also the flying pig Hans was adorable, I want one so bad! Please science, make these creatures a reality!
I actually hate that thing. It takes away from my weird war fantasy by being an unnecessary "mascot". I don't mind creatures like that in something more fantasy based like Final Fantasy but with what is basically a war game it's just kind of off putting. For me at least.
