I feel like lately a lot of people (or perhaps just a few people, a lot) are trying to really push the limit as far as it goes in trying to get moves and assists without actually paying the price, either in terms of SP or OM. Let's make a few rulings absolutely clear:
1: remote control is your character remotely controlling something with their mind. They need to focus on doing this. It's not a way to have free assists.
2: 300 per use. Remote control does not allow you to get around this by saying everything the clone is doing is simply under the umbrella of "remote control". I'll classify punches, kicks and general melee attacks as one thing for the purpose of clarity. I'll classify attacking with the sword as another thing. I'll classify shooting with a bow as another thing.
3. Moves cannot have effects on the way other moves work. Such as "this move reduces the cooldown/charge time of my other moves". For example, making several attack moves. Then making another move which allows you to add a cooldown to all those other moves that make them stronger. If your move can operate in two different ways, it will cost 600 OM and it needs to be part of the move itself, not a vague attempt to bypass costs. The only exception is transformations, which work to make all your moves stronger at the cost of SP.
All moves must have downsides equivalent to the strength of the move. In most cases, the strength is directly correlated to the time it takes to perform the move and the energy cost.
