Is such a thing possible?

Ogre Crossing
I don't know id this is where I should be posting this question, but it seems as good a place as any. Of course, do move it if need be.

I see that this is indeed in the wrong forum . . .

Anyways, the question I wish to put forth is this: Would it be remotely possible to create a map/campaign/system such that it plays like an SRPG (ie: Tactics Ogre, Final Fantasy Tactics, Front Mission, et cetera)?

I myself am not overly familiar with map making or the world editor; I am an artist. As such you will have to excuse me if this seems too outlandish a question.

Obviously the square grid sort of map, with 3d elevation, would be required, and that with the proper sort of interactivity (ie: the square tio which moves the soldier needs to be selected). In place of sprites could be properly skinned models. You would be needing a menu system to properly capture the feel of the game. Turn-based battles, naturally.

I do not know how difficult it would be to create a custom system to perform in this way, but I am thinking it would be very. But then, I would think that, as my programming experience is minimal.

Insight into this would be appreciated.
