Yep.

Also sounds good...I'm actually going to be creating that "something" with
regards to the sword. I'll be sure to make it fair so that fore-knowledge
is not and advantage (Jonathan doesn't even know what I have in mind for
this at this point), but may just reveal the whole thing, once I've worked
out a couple of things.

The SP limit is should not consume more than %25 of your total CP, so 250 CP
worth. Again, I think the magic items that you create to get scatterd
should draw from this pool, minimum of 5 items per team, with a maximum of
10 per team...thoughts?
Spider Gymnastix should be allowed. I guess Stealth should ony be allowed
through magic, but perhaps Shaun can elighten us with his thoughts on the
matter.

This didn't make sense to me at first, but what your saying is that you
simply lose a turn of duration for every '1' that appears, thus shortening
the effect. I'm okay with that.

This seems reasonable, but shouldn't it be total blok-mass - 1, since BW
always seems to assume a blok-mass of 1 (so you only have to pay additional
SP when you are anamating something larger).

| (...) Hmm. I kinda think if the SP's come out of your team's rations, people will be less likely to go scattering cool objects across the board. Plus, people would know in advance what *their* items did and would be less/more likely to pick them up (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
