Think about it for a second. I realized that one of the best parts of Fire Emblem is its characters. Imagine a musou game of that?
Now let's put it into perspective.
-Before the battle starts you will be taken to a screen that let's you choose which characters you will be taking into battle.
-It lets you choose which items to take into battle.
-The formation of the party
-Crafting materials/shopping.
-The battle will mix some elements of Fire Emblem with musou-like gameplay.
-You will be able to switch characters whenever you want via the gamepad(or some other means during cooperative play) whenever a character is in trouble.
-The character death system would be in place, so losing characters is very saddening.
-There will be classes, different classes have different movesets and combos. Each of the main characters has their own moves.
-The combo upgrading system will be in place for each individual character as they level up.
-When a character reaches level 10 they can change classes via a hero's crest/knight's crest etc.
-You will have an objective to fullfill like defeating all enemies, capturing all points, or defending a wounded character
-Supports will be available. You need to go to a compatible partner on the field, and dialogue follows.
-It will(like Zelda Musou) have an adventure mode in with the SRPG style of fire emblem
And the rest I'm drawing a blank on. Have any ideas? Tell them to me and I'll add them to the OP.
Suggestions:
-There will be aspects or point of views about the situation, that way you can play as the rebels who are trying to revert control of the power to the people, and the empire who is trying to eliminate the rebels to bring peace to the nation that is not actually bad at all.(Suggested by FlagStead)
-There will be a way to direct your AI cannon fodder soldiers.(Suggested by Maraccuda)
-You will be able to control the other captains ala pikmin(Suggested by Twilord)
