![]() This list has been updated with more games in the genre and titles that are similar to Fire Emblem to keep fans happy until the next entry in the Fire Emblem series. Thankfully, several titles offer similar gameplay mechanics while telling a great story of their own. Its combination of great characters, stories, and accessible gameplay play a big role in making the series one of Nintendo's most anticipated titles. Updated by Michael Llewellyn: Thanks to the popularity of the characters in Super Smash Bros, Nintendo's Fire Emblem series has established itself as one of the most mainstream tactical RPGs in the world. It isn't the only series one should try in the genre, however, as there are many other great tactics titles wanting to be played. Yet despite not becoming a major hit outside of Japan, it was Intelligent Systems’ Fire Emblem and Advance Wars series that set the standard for turn-based tactical RPGs. RELATED: Fire Emblem Three Houses: The Best And The Worst Characters It’s a genre that plays and feels like a combination of tabletop RPG and chess, beginning on 8-bit systems with games like Ultima III: Exodus and Koei's The Dragon and the Princess in the early 1980s. The genre has been around a long time with Fire Emblem itself being nearly 30 years old. Throughout the world, Rigaku continuously promotes partnerships, dialog, and innovation within the global scientific and industrial community.Thanks to the Fire Emblem series gaining mainstream popularity, tactical strategy RPGs are finally gaining the appreciation they deserve. Its products are in use in more than 70 countries-supporting research, development, and quality assurance activities. Rigaku employs over 1,100 people in the manufacture and support of its analytical equipment. With hundreds of major innovations to their credit, Rigaku companies are world leaders in the fields of small molecule and protein crystallography, X-ray spectrometry and diffraction, X-ray optics, as well as semiconductor metrology. Rigaku and its subsidiaries form a global group focused on life sciences and general purpose analytical instrumentation. Since its inception in Japan in 1951, Rigaku has been at the forefront of analytical and industrial instrumentation technology. TerraTek offers essential technology to producers whose success depends heavily on geomechanics, and also to service companies that rely on geomechanics technology for product distinction and new product development. Geomechanics therefore holds the key to both risk and cost reduction and to economic viability of reservoir production. Both the overburden which must be penetrated and sealed and the reservoir formation which must be evaluated and eventually produced, are rock, a highly nonlinear and complex material. The understanding and application of geomechanics are key to oil and gas industry success. ![]() The company, over three decades old, provides services and products to the oil and gas industry worldwide, and is the premier group in geomechanics applications as related to reservoir evaluation, drilling and completions, stimulation and production, and reservoir management. TerraTek, based in Salt Lake City, Utah, is an exciting geomechanics applications engineering business. Elimination of the need to grind and press samples greatly reduces the time required to provide formation data and therefore reduces producer costs." The Ultima III XRD is an invaluable tool because of its ability to provide both detailed clay analysis, and approximate mineral composition of shale core without conventional costly and time consuming sample preparation. Sidney Green, CEO of TerraTek, commented on the purchase by saying that "successful exploration for tight shale gas relies on an understanding of the mineralogy of the clays within a target area.

A significant milestone for Rigaku, sale of the 100th Ultima III was marked by a special commemorative plaque affixed to the exterior of the instrument. ![]() The system was chosen by TerraTek for their new in-house X-ray diffraction laboratory in support of oil and gas drilling core analysis for tight shale gas development. Rigaku is pleased to announce the sale and installation of the 100th Ultima III advanced X-ray diffraction (XRD) system to TerraTek in Salt Lake City, Utah.
