Valkyria Chronicles is not an RPG. It's got RPG elements but it's nothing like what you think it is. Basically, you pick some soldiers with different attributes and personalities. You arm them up and send them into battle. While in battle, you take turns controlling each of them, TPS style. You can only move a certain distance per turn and that's it.
When you're done, it's the enemy's turn. While they're moving, your guys will still open fire on them and maybe even kill them. It's a little deeper than what I described but you'll be surprised how much you end up liking the characters and some of the situations they get into.
