Action Battle Systems showcase the hero on the game map performing combat in real-time. Moving the character around the map to dodge attacks, swinging the sword around or shooting arrows or magic bolts hoping to strike a target... all these actions typify the ABS.
Sometimes the combat in these systems are one-on-one. Sometimes, the hero may be surrounded by hoards of enemies. And sometimes the game has a hero leading a team into combat... all of them visible on the map during combat.
Examples of professional games with such systems are are Zelda and Diablo (through a point-n-click interface).

Battle system like Zelda, on map. This one is limited to four directions, and automatically targets the closest monster when casting spells. Use the A S and D keys to set Hotkeys in the Skill menu, and press Shift to attack.

ou think all ABSs are the same? Wrong! Here comes the one with the realistic engine! :D Enough Merchandising. This ABS lets your enemies be your friends, your friends be your enemies' enemies, or your enemies only attack you when you attack them. Realistic, i guess...
Features
* 8-Way Movement
* Different Alignments (neutral, attack evil, attack good, attack Player...)
* Different Reactions (do nothing, attack all, attack attacker...)
* AI (heal when hp low, heal status effects, run away, call for help...)
* Enemies can always attack you, but you have to be in battle_mode to attack
* Skill and Weapon Ranges
* halves the Animation sizes, to ease their creation
* All the features that are in Prexus' ABS (because this is a mod of his ABS)
* Some others i might have forgot..
