When they say that the "Magic Judge" is on vacation, that means that the Magic rules are less strict and magic cards I believe are cheaper...I'm not sure. I don't use cards very much, I just pwn my enemies with brute force and/or phantasm skills.

Look at the few chapters of Project C.H.A.O.S. to see what I mean by the "Anarchist"

I myself only feel the need for antilaw cards when I see a ban on color magic.

If I was fighting a lot of monsters and there was a ban on dealing damage against monsters I would also be reaching for my antilaws. But that is about it.

Oh, and sometimes I break bans on copycat. I get nervous when copycat is banned.

So, don't use Copycat. I haven't learned that skill yet (I only got as far as the second story mission), so I wouldn't know.

Banning damage against monsters? That's like telling someone not to push the buttons on the Game Boy! >(

I've got some new story ideas brewing. Prepare yourselves! >=)

No, not that kind of copycat. Copycat is doing the same thing the last person did. I got a yellow card for that once.

Anyway, what kind of laws will there be? Should there be some on the more radical things in FFTA, like 'Damage2Monster' and stuff?

I was thinking something like this...

- Bans on all types of magic
- Outlawed Meleé and Ranged Combat (two seperate laws)
- Outlaw on Attacks
- Outlaw on all Magic
- Outlaw on Law cards (Forces following of other laws)
- Outlaw on All Status Effects, both positive and negative.
- Outlaw on Fleeing (yes, It will be a penalty if you flee from battle with this in play.)

Any other ideas?

What is the difference between a banned and an outlawed thing?

So then why did you use the word when ban is easier and quicker to spell? Oh well, I guess you don't have to make sense.

-Ban on healing.
-Ban on entering a battle after it has started (to keep people from calling in reinforcements as much as they want)
-An individual ban for each element
-Ban on using items
-Ban on summon spells
-Ban on killing someone on your first round in combat
-Ban on doing the same thing more than once in a turn

1) good idea. it's in.
2) Another good idea. It's in.
3) It's already there.
4) I forgot about that. It's in.
5) Already there.
6) Dumb idea. It's out.
7) I forgot about that too. It's in.



And yes, I have won an engagement on the first turn...and it RULED!

3. When you said 'Bans on all types of magic' I assumed you meant a ban that bans all magic. I guess I didn't notice that crucial 's'.
5. See above
6. No. That is to keep you (or, for that matter, anyone) to do those annoying 'jump into battle, use best attack, win' thing. That would reduce battle to the point all that matters is that you get the first turn.

Any suggestions for what kinds of abilities Sin should have? I don't know enough to make any up, but it should have an ability that allows it to run away even if there are anti-running-away abilities in place (to keep Sin from coming in, nuking someone, and then being unable to run away and thus forced to stay there and kill everyone). However, Sin should be the ONLY one allowed to have an ability like this.

My post 1500.

Flee is a FFX ability that allows the party to run away at once. I don't know any such abilties that allow Sin to run away, but I can make one up:

What's that behind you?!- Allows user and party to run away, regardless of laws.

Sin also knows some Gravity magic (like Demi) that slices a target's HP by a certain amount. It also has Giga-Gravation, but it wouldn't be useable since we're banning instant death skills. GG KOs ALL opponents, regardless of HP, but in FFX, Sin doesn't use it unless you wait 12-13 turns. I won't give Sin GG.

I was thinking more along the lines of some uberteleport spell, that is able to get around the peep army interdictors by virtue of pure, terrifying, power.

Gravity stuff... great, now I need another element.
And why gravity? Electromagnitism is a lot more powerful.

1- Sin is extremely powerful. Your Peeps wouldn't stand a chance unless they played FFX.
2- Personally, I think Demi looks more like a Darkness or Warp spell.

1. Going by virtue of what I have seen from the game, I would have no trouble. I mean, a big enough antimatter bomb could blow up a planet. And the peep army has the reasources to make such a bomb. Or, at least, had those reasources before the main base was destroyed.
2. I would think it would be warp.

1- It all depends on whether Sin can disarm the bomb with its psychic powers, or if it has enough common sense to stay away from the Peeps. Either way, Sin can come back, but since I haven't gotten that far in the game yet (don't you dare spoil it!), wouldn't know how the heck that would work.

EDIT: 2- Or chaos. (Warp/Chaos?)

1. How do you disarm a bomb which relys on it's internal systems to keep itself from naturally blowing up?
2. Nah. Chaos doesn't really fit here, since demi has very predictable results.

Demi is a dark-based spell, not a gravity based spell.

Well, it's been changed to Dark-based in FFTA. Thus, it's Dark based.

I dunno. Since that's the latest and greatest non-online FF game, I assume that there will be many things there.


Besides, we can borrow spells from other games, too. I sooooooo want to use Grants in this game...w00t

Demi has always been gravity based, thusly it's gravity. Just because FFTA deems it dark dosn't mean that it should be changed. And besides, the game is already FFT: The Online Message Board Ripoff, so why do we need to make it even more like it?

I personally think FFT was better than FFTA. More challenging, at least. And the classes were more unique compared to each other.

Oh my, another story piece!

Malta enters Xion's room, only to find him and Tia asleep together in the chair. Malta shakes her head and looks at the floor. "Silly little sister." she says, then goes to get Xion awake. She notices the green area on the star system, but what catches her eye is the scroll with the ribbon. "Oh my. This looks...new." Malta grabs the scroll, carefully, and reads the note. "Aww. A spell from a planeswalker." She opens it, and mumbles the first few lines of text.

Xion mumbles something in his sleep. Malta doesn't see this, but Xion sees Malta. "Malta?" Malta breaks her concentration, and looks at Xion.

"Where..." Malta begins, almost studdering, "Where did you get this."

Xion shrugs. "I'm just as confused on who, why, when, and what."

"Well, I can answer 'What' for you." Malta says, with a smile, and rolling it up. She ties the ribbon around it. "Look up the ancient Vieran texts...those might help you a bit." Malta says with a smile. "Oh yes. Also, I think that with Tangent and his Magic Amplifier magic, Even the Pylon incident...I sent a message to the Principal Government-"

"Stop right there. You...what?" Xion says, snapping his head twoards Malta.

"I sent a message to the Pricipal Government about the Anarchist." she says. "And guess what. They said that since it became non-operational over the last twelve years, you can have it back."

"Well." Xion says, getting up. Tia, still asleep in Xion's chair, slips down into the chair. Xion presses a few keys on a wall, and the wall opens to display a magnificent Black and Red suit of armor. "I thought that I had retired this suit for good..." Xion says, staring at the armor. "But I may need it, now that you've mentioned the Anarchist."

Xion removes the Helm from its holder, and puts it on. "It stil fits..." Xion says, somewhat muffled through the helmet. "Let's see if the power still works." He then clips on the body armor, and the eyes begin to glow white. "Targeting systems are ok, life support good, Gravity systems are still operational, Visuals are still good..."

"This doesn't look like the Xion I know..." Malta says, somewhat disturbed.

"Audio sensors still work..." Xion says, then removes the armor. "I know it's not who you know...but that's how I was able to get this place. I cleaned it up, and made it my home. Principal Government didn't want me...Too much of a rebel with my 'Fancy-Pants magick' and ideas. So they waited for a reason to get me...and they did. I was caught selling illegal replicated items on the market, so they removed my licence." Xion points to a black circle on the left side of the body armor. "Used to proudly wear my licence there, untill they removed it."

"Well, I guess that's what happens when you do something illegal." Malta says, apatetically.

"That's what happens when the government doesn't like you." Xion states. "Anyways, I'll just shift up there so I can get to the ship...right?" Malta shakes her head. "Right??"

"No...Diesel went up there and passed himself off as you. They knew who you were under your armor, and couldn't tell the difference between you and him. Diesel's up there now fixing it up." Malta says, then digs in her pocket. "By the way..." She pulls out a chip, about an inch in diameter, and purple on one side.

"Is that..." Malta nods. "I've missed it...did it keep my items?" Malta shrugs.

"I had no way to see..." Malta says, handing it to Xion. Xion carefully implants it into the black circle, making a perfect fit. Xion puts on two gloves from the armor, and the body armor.

"Let's see..." Xion mumbles. Xion produces a multitude of things...A yellow blade on a long stick, a two-sided tan-colored blade, a large rifle with a blue jewel in the top, a red Scythe, then finally a pair of Blue-Green guns. "They didn't remove a thing..." Xion says, smiling. Xion notices Tia starting to move, and Xion puts the armor away.

Tia gets up, and looks at Xion just as the door shut. "Well, somebody's up." Tia says. "What were you and Malta doing?"

"Talking..." Xion says, with a smile. "She was able to get the Anarchist out of lockdown...now we can go to Peep Territory. Diesel's up there working on it now to get it functioning."

"Wonderful...what time is it?" Tia says with a yawn.

"It's almost noon..." Xion says, looking at the computer's clock. Tia looks at him with a smile. "Time for lunch..." Xion helps Tia up out of the chair, and the three walk to the lounge for lunch.

First, Tangent had nothing to do with the magic amplifier. That was Risp's.

But, anyway, I am glad you made another story segment. I will get to my next one soon, now that I have a chance.

I guess it does make sense, since they saw a lot more of Tangent then they did of Risp.

Risp walks up to a building built in the shadow of the nearby moutain. He walks to the door, and it opens for him. A blast of fire and ice shoots through and turns a nearby tree into rapidly melting jagged chunks. A figure, gaunt and in a zebra-striped robe comes out, floating gently above the floor. It points it's long, rune-covered rod to Risp then, having seen who he is, turns it instead to a rock and whispers a spell. A bolt of energy archs to the rock, which cracks and warps into a fine dust. Risp, slightly unnerved by the single-mindedness of the mage, goes further in. The inside of the building is a large arena-like room, covered in protective runes and powerful force-fields to keep it from being destroyed by what goes on inside. Turning to his right, Risp sees a figure in white shooting rounds and rounds from dual pistols at automated drone targets. He carries further on, and walks to another figure, in a dark trenchcoat and carrying some kind of long dagger. He raises his voice to be heard above the guns and spells. "Veltha?"
The figure in black turns, and responds in a low, synthetic sounding tone. "Yes?"
"How is the project coming, spokesperson?"
"Well. We will be ready soon. Gho, when he feels sane enough to, says he is looking forward to the fighting. And Helix... well, you know how he is."
"Carry on."
Risp walks out, thinking. Tangent down... Veltha down... now to see what is up with Niz.

"What was that..." Malta says, looking up quickly.

"A time ebb..." Xion says, looking around. "Basically time has passed for us while time for the world has went back."

"So...where did we go to?" Tia says, clinging fearfully to Xion.

"It...looks like we have just entered the mess hall." Xion says, looking at the clock.
