I HAVE to recommend a game to you all if you liked Final Fantasy Tactics. The entire game of FFT is basically a mod of the Japanese game "Tactics Ogre". Aside from cosmetic differences and changes in the game structure, the two games are exactly alike. Currently, there is an English version availible on the GBA. It is not a port, but just a completely new volume in the, so far, 5 part "Ogre" mythos.
2 things:

Tactical RPGs aren't a "mod" of Tactics Ogre anymore than sidescrollers are a mod of Mario 1 or 2D shooters are a mod of Gradius or Space Invaders. It's just another genre. I personally prefer FF Tactics over any other tactical RPG I've played because of the job and skill system. After every battle I was checking to see how much JP I earned to see if there was anymore skills or spells I could learn.

Secondly, several games in the Tactics Ogre series have been released. If memory serves there was two on the SNES, but only 1 of the 2 came to America. There's one on the N64 as well, and lastly, the GBA one. Knights of Lodis.

Spleen edit: Ooops, hit "Edit" instead of "Quote". No changes have been made to what was written.
