Thanks for your attention.
Shapeshifting - I do wanna do this outside of Transformations. I understand that I'm overpaying a bit but I want to model the Gokaiger as best as I can in this system. As per my vision, Marvelous can turn into some 35 different forms (more than that in truth, but Marvelous usually only Gokai Changes into red Rangers. I understand it is a weird use of shapeshifter, I don't want to turn into specific people in the game or use it as a disguise ever. I do want to be able to Gokai Change in battle, and it's my honest opinion becoming ShinkenRed, Tyrannoranger or Spade Ace isn't really a power up, mostly cosmetic.
If I could get REALLY loose with Tranformations, maybe my Tier 1 would just be "Legend Mode" and it would let me turn into my 34 other forms, and then Gold Mode over that and Super Ranger above that. My preference would be that "I turn into GekiRed and bust out some Kung Fu" to sort of be my normal attacks. The Gokaiger tend to be flashy and fan servicey, turning into warriors for one move and then quickly switching it up again. It is almost never an advantage, it's usually all cosmetic, but it does change up my style. Some Sentai are more martial arts focused, some are more gun focused, others focus on the sword. I can do it all, but what form I'm in would determine how I use it.
The Gokai Saber basically has two modes. Light and Fast (the standard slashing sword or dagger) or Slow and Heavy (for the big longswords or other unwieldy weapons). The Gokai Gun likewise really only has two modes; Fast and Weak (the standard for pistols) or slow and strong (bazookas, cannons, rifles). I thought, with Shapeshifting, I could safely let these two weapons cover all of my bases, and I would improve them to expand it further (Akarenger or Fiveman's whips, Shinkenred's big shark-blade).
So that's my reasoning. Shapeshifting, of a very non-standard sort, essential for most of my basic moves, and built into my weapons. I want to save the Transformations for things that actually boost my power.
I hope I've explained myself well. I'm very excited to play and if you still think I should ditch Shapeshifting and buy 34 different moves, Super Moves or Transformations to model my Gokai Changes then I'll have to see what I can do to make it work.
