The spells Transform/Shapechange (MitS p.148), can
they turn someone into any critter or only one
specific type declared at the time the spell is
learned (eg: Shapechange to bear, Transform to
goldfish)?
The Reinforce spell (MitS p.148), can it be used to
increase the barrier rating of a Physical Barrier
spell? Can it be used to improve the armor value of
non-magical personal armor?
The Shape Earth spell (MitS p.146), is the earth that
is being shaped still considered to be part of Mother
Earth? In other words, is it still a astral barrier
(special rules to project through)?
Can a Control Manipulation spell (SR3 p.196) be cast
on spirits? This spell category is described as spells
that "affect the actions and the thoughts of living
beings." Are spirits living beings? How about flesh
form Insects spirits? Zombies?
The Control Thought spell (SR3 p.196), can it be used
to spend the target's karma pool? (eg. the spell's
victim is given the thought control order of shoot to
kill a target. The resistence test by the victim to
resist and throw off the spell fails. He rolls to
attack and gets all ones. Does he spend his own
personal karma to off set that? Can the control spell
caster spend his?)
The Glue spell (MitS p.147), can it affect physical
objects other than people? If so, how would you
determine the strength of a vehicle? (eg. glueing the
tire of a stationary patrol car to the asphalt. What
would the patrol car's effective stregnth be?)
The Use(skill) spell (MitS p.146), does it have a +2
tn penalty like Magic Fingers (SR3 p.197)? Or does it
not apply because of the specialization of the spell?
Thanks for reading all of this. I understand several
of these answers would be based on your gaming group's
"house rules", but I just wanted to get an impression
of what other people thought.
Thanks again.
