Come on Ivy, show a litle objectivity here. If the sammie has a Karma
Pool then the mage will have a pool too. This is not Players against NPCs!!!!
A mage With 12 dice against a TN of 4 and say 2 rerolls will get up to 10
successes. And a TN of 20 is pretty DAMNED HARD no matter how many rerolls
you have. Thats invisible for me.

HA! (assuming that none of the opponents has a karma pool), The mage
will roll 13 Dice with a TN of 5 and the sammie will roll 5 Dice with a TN
of 6. Please dont make me LAUGH!!!!!!!!
>> III) Give him 8 charisma and he'll have force 10 Elementals to back him up.

Money is no object to a good mage, and elementals are expendale. Mages
can affort it to use their elementals as cannon fodder (unlike shamans).
>> IV) Give him 8 Armed combat(specialised in monowhip) and being invisible
>> ge can cut ANY enemy to pieces.
> The whip isn't invisible. And his TN is a 4 while he's sustaining the

Everything he carries with him becomes invisible, or are you suggesting
that a mages clothes can still be seen when he becomes invisible?
This gives him a surprise attack and 12 dice with a TN of 2,
while his opponent has a TN of 6. Noone can survive that!!!!!!
>> VII) He can shapechange to an elephant and take a Panther Cannon Blast and
>> survive it.

C'mon Ivy cant u recognise a bit of humor when u see it ?
> Mages are tough, but they are far from invulnerable.
I didnt say that they are invulnrable, I just said that they has the
biggest chance to win in a head to head sittuation. Anyone is killable
this is not fu**ing Dee-n-Dee, but mages can be far harder to get when
played properly.
