the Ivalice timeline goes like this
"(Quoted from GameFaqs.com)
FFTA* –> FFXII –> FFTA2* –> FFXII:RW –> FFT –> Vagrant Story -> FFTA* -> FFTA2*
*The beginning of FFTA takes place in a modern Ivalice setting, but the bulk of the game takes place in a “fictional” Ivalice. This “fictional” Ivalice is sometime before FFXII. FFTA2 is confirmed as being after the events of FFXII, in the real Ivalice (but like FFTA, starts out in modern Ivalice)."
My personal progress
I have played to the end of the story now, I got all the 'secret' characters etc. including Construct 8, Cloud, Balthier (FFXII) and Luso (from up coming FFT:A2 on NDS) Got Beowulf and Reis aswell.
Short about Balthier and Luso, Balthier is one of the most powerful characters you can have this time around. He is faster than Ninjas.
He brings with him the most powerful gun in the game, plus his personal skill 'Sky Pirate'. Got the same abilities as Mustadios, in addition to have thieving abilities
Luso is almost a copy of Ramza, got all the same squire abilities.
I also got the Dark Knight job on Ramza, it is the similar to the job Gaffgarion have, but including 3 more moves, plus extra abilities or support and movement. As Gaffgarion only had ShadowBlade (HP drain) and Dusk Blade (MP drain).
Hope I didn't spoil too much. I just like this game very much. Like lot of others here do.

SPOILER
I just started replaying the game. I stole Gaffgarion sword during the fight right before the last fight of chapter 2. When Gaffgarion tries to trick you in that they are killing the princess and actually it is not the princess.
That sword is awesome, i think it's the Blood Sword (Don't feel like turning on the game to check the name). Every hit you make will recover HP for the amount of damage made.
I got Onion Knight but what i'm really aiming for is Mastering all of the Jobs to unlock the TRUE Onion Knight. The Onion Knight is the most powerful job in the game. But the only way to unlock its True Power, where all of its stats are MAXED OUT is to master all jobs.
