What is Fantasy Marching Arts?
What is this place?
Fantasy Marching Arts, or FMA, is a multiplayer, browser-based game that simulates competition seasons of the four major marching arts activities: drum corps, competitive marching band, winter guard, and indoor drumline. While it is hard to categorize FMA's playstyle, it is best to simply say that it has elements of MMORPGs, turn based games, sports simulation games, and some other types of games.

Unlike most games with "fantasy" in the title, FMA does not utilize real-life scores from competitions. Instead, it uses a combination of intricate gameplay and a complex scoring system to simulate the seasons and competition results. FMA will always be free to play, and anyone can join up and start playing at any time.
