Warcraft III/Starcraft is some of my favorite games. And as a JRPG fan, I'd kind of like to see a game that plays just like Warcraft III/Starcraft but set in the Final Fantasy universe. I think it'd be easily translated since the characters are so similar. The FFXI characters alone are already like the class and characters in Warcraft.

Well, this is just a fanboy rant, but it'd be kind of a cool thing to play. And I bet a game like this would convert Japanese gamers to be fans of RTSs.

It's not exactly what you're describing, but FF XII RW on DS has RTS elements. Watch a few videos to see how active and real-time movement can be, at least relative to what most folks expected.

Ehh.. I don't think it would capture what made the FF series popular. It had a lot of indepth character development. An RTS can have a story but it doesn't gointo anywhere near the amount of depth as a FF game. Even with Tactics you were able to see the series lose some depth because it had to bring in too many characters that didn't play into the plot.

I've never been insanely awesome at RTS games (they just aren't my specialty), but I think you're onto something here. I'd definitely look into a game like that if it came out.
