When different words are used - instant and automatic - it's unclear what the intent is, how this affects mental stun, and if a roll is needed or not.

Instantly and automatically are not synonyms. And I'd pay for a version of Magic that didn't think Instant and Permanent are synonyms.

Too many folks was a top-to-bottom total change to GURPS Magic, where I just want to clean up the oddities that I personally find in it. So that means there is a lot of pain and getting complained about in it, but not a lot of happiness. Or pay, really. ;)Peter Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14246000382321978462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7817710432110712270.post-33734044835405882562014-01-07T14:37:01.244-05:002014-01-07T14:37:01.244-05:00He should have had to spend a turn becoming unstun...He should have had to spend a turn becoming unstunned, yes.Peter Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14246000382321978462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7817710432110712270.post-18942209695801592332014-01-07T13:02:03.941-05:002014-01-07T13:02:03.941-05:00Reading this just makes me wany GURPS magic to be ...Reading this just makes me wany GURPS magic to be redoneUnachimbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04873952842828774048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7817710432110712270.post-44463435747477768862014-01-07T11:05:23.276-05:002014-01-07T11:05:23.276-05:00Does this mean that Dryst should have been mentall...Does this mean that Dryst should have been mentally stunned after getting awoken from the Sleep?
