Description from Steam STEAM

Together in Battle is a fantasy gladiator SRPG with vibrant characters, funny random events, team management mechanics, and emergent relationship-building. Uncover a sinister conspiracy; fight deep turn-based tactical battles; watch your characters grow together. You’ve arrived in the island kingdom of Dese with a secret mission to enter the gladiatorial games and find loyal fighters. Hunted by an imperial praetor, you must maintain a low profile even as you find yourself drawn into intrigues that will decide the fate of Dese itself. Recruit and manage a team of fighters. Stay stocked on food, make payroll, and keep your team practicing. But beware: they have feelings! Let their friends fall in battle, and they may become depressed. Let morale fall too low, and you’ll risk resentment and desertion. Keep them happy, however, and they will grow close to one another, form fond memories, give nicknames–even share their combat skills! With skill and patience, you will emerge victorious…together in battle. Each day, you'll have 2 Time Points to spend: you can fight in the arena, send characters away on quests, shop, recruit new allies, and more. At night, you'll return to camp and watch your character's personalities come alive as they talk, pursue their interests, and build relationships with one another! You're the boss--you get to decide how each day is spent. But your choices matter. To succeed, you'll want to make every day count. Every character you recruit has distinct traits, personal histories, beliefs, hobbies, and secrets. These differences matter: a jokester may do funny impressions to boost morale; a hunter may boost your stocks with wild game; a baker may use food to produce cookies and cakes you can eat or sell; a gambler may visit bars around town and win money for you. Dancers are nimble; sailors are good swimmers. Some characters are prone to depression; some, to self-doubt. Some self-soothe with long walks or prayer; others undertake long-term projects like growing vegetables, forging weapons, or writing novels. Learn what makes each character tick as they grow and form powerful bonds of friendship! Fight battles that reward creativity and good positioning, not just lucky die rolls. With a deterministic core that never wastes your time, Together in Battle's turn-based tactical combat nonetheless features incredible depth: Elevation : claim the high ground to boost your effectiveness and hinder the enemy's! Knockbacks galore : shove and throw enemies into water, lava, and chasms; off of cliffs; or into each other! Backstabbing : strike from behind to avoid counterattacks and score a huge damage bonus! Destructible environments : bust down doors, blow up walls, hack through bushes, chop through barricades! If you can see it, you can smash it. Defensive terrain : take up position in tall grass to gain a defense boost--or hack it down to deny that same advantage to the enemy. Create new structures on the battlefield: build your own bridges and barricades; freeze water to form ice bridges; place explosives to detonate at an opportune moment; set traps for enemies to wander into (or just shove them in yourself). Extreme turn flexibility : move a character, move a second character, then return to finish the first character's turn. An unlimited undo stack lets you redo it all if you don't like where everyone ended up! Clever AI : face enemies that use the terrain to their advantage, take advantage of weak positioning, cut through barriers, and compete with you for item pickups. You won't see everything Together in Battle has to offer in a single playthrough--or two. Every game offers a new experience. TiB includes: 24 base classes with branching promotions for a total of 72 distinct character classes ; More than 175 skills ; 6 playable species ; Dozens and dozens of random events and side quests that can play out in multiple different ways; A near-limitless variety of unique, procedurally generated characters ; A custom character creator you can use to create your own original characters, who will sometimes show up in recruitment for you to hire; Hundreds of thousands of possible procedurally generated weapons and pieces of armor , including unique and personal weapons; A trainer you can use to shore up your characters' stats or even multi-class them; A jobs board with randomized jobs you can hire characters out for to earn money; A brilliant blend of procedurally generated arena battles and hand-designed side quest and plot battles ! Together in Battle also comes with a campaign creation suite to let you build your own full-fledged SRPG campaigns ! Build characters in the character creator ! Sculpt battlefields and place armies in the map editor ! Compose cut scenes in the cut scene editor ! Write branching dialogue trees for both battles and cut scenes using the dialogue editor ! Create new skills for your characters to use in the skill editor ! Craft new items and equipment for players to use in the item editor ! Need ideas? Let the game roll up full-fledged characters and battles for you to edit (or simply use as-is)! Construct your own scripts, then assign them to items and skills for whatever custom effects you can dream up! Mod support for custom music, sound effects, character classes, AI profiles, and more! Together in Battle is set in the Telepath universe, and serves as a follow-up to 2022's critically acclaimed Telepath Tactics Liberated.

Storyline IGDB

You’ve arrived in the island kingdom of Dese with a secret mission to enter the gladiatorial games and find loyal fighters under the guise of competing. Hunted by an imperial praetor, you must maintain a low profile even as you find yourself drawn into intrigues that will decide the fate of Dese itself. Recruit and manage charming characters with their own personalities, hobbies, and life stories. Stay stocked on food, maintain enough money to make payroll, and ensure that your characters practice regularly to continue improving. But beware: they have feelings! Allow their friends to fall in battle, and they may become depressed. Fail to address their needs, and you'll risk resentment and desertion. Keep them happy, however, and they will grow close to one another, form fond memories, give each other nicknames - even share their special combat skills! With skill and patience, you will emerge victorious... together in battle.
