  1. It's not luck it's Fortune. In the Cosmere intuition is a way to know things you shouldn't Basically gut feelings are completly true. So you would store that, and then you can tap it latter to see the future.
  2. Honestly I'd be more worried about it moving fater than the Highstorm, with both gems connected to the same device it would increase in speed the whole time. You would need perfectly porportioned gems but I think it would work, admittedly we don't get enough information for me to be able to calculate if it would work. Or alternativly, set up the drop platforms Kal uses inside a ship with different sized gems inside it, use the drop to start moving and carefully controll the excelleration. Either way you have a far faster airship than So.Scadrial has.
  3. On fourth bridge being inferior to Scadrian Airships, I have a workable design that makes them much faster and more maneuverable. First contruct a number of perpetual motion machines, i.e. conjoined Fabrial with different sized gems held inside the highstorm. Add a gem to connect to the aircraft you wish to build. Then inside the ship rig up a missive version of the gauntlet Kaladin used. And you have yourself a plane more maneuverable than a modern fighter jet.
  4. Knock on wood RIGHT NOW!
  5. *Silmarillion Well there is also Unfinished Tales Book of Lost Tales The Thirteen books of The Complete HIstory of MIddle Earth The Adventures of Tom Bombadil We have "Tolkiens Letters" And a bunch of others
  6. I will judge the contest. Even though neither of you can beat King'sdaughter but ok
  7. Bondsmiths don't get blades at all, not just Dalinar
  8. Peaceful, really? They are on the verge of civil war they aren't going to say, "you know what let's be friends now that there is another group over there" The closest thing to this whould be the greco-persian wars and as soon as the Greeks won they went back to fighting each other. Why are spren allowed to change sides but Scadrians aren't? Soulcasting is mass prduction Scadrial could never hope to replicate, and Anti-investiture is more than Roshar only. What newly developed weapons? What tactics? Plate gets them through all of that. Switzerland is also surrounded by warlike Nations, the North hasn't seen any conflict amounting to more than gang activity, dropping even moddern police into the battle of Agincourt would not change the outcome, they would die. It took humans on earth 33 years to go from powered flight to the moon, there are several years between KoW and AoL, either fourth bridge becomes powered flight, (I have already disscused perpetual motion earlier on this thread) or the airships of the south are far less impressive, either way the advantage is gone, and gravtiation orders remove any challange to Rosharan air supperiority. And Scadrial has no public knowledge of Hemalurgy, and even if they did, landing three to four hits directly on the same spot, that can be protected with ease without getting your soul severed would require protagonist levels of plot armor. And on top of that anti-investiture is in every system. There are no Nicrocil compounders now and you cannot assume there will be. There is no Scadrian military armed with guns and you cannot assume there will be. There are no thug/soulbearers and you cannot assume there will be. There WILL be Anti-mist, why would they look at this Stormlight like substence, something the pure tones are in and not say, "hey we should make anti-this for our war effort" ? And Singers are geared towards tones/rhythms something you once again convieniently forgot. I'm making this big so you might actually read it, Ad Hominem will not help you. https://effectiviology.com/ad-hominem-fallacy/ key word there is 'might' Aluminum only resists shardblades, with sufficent force it will buckle, it isn't a cure all aluminum is also increadiblhy exspencive, that's like making bullets out of solid gold, more excpencive actually. No they don't as stated before Brandon HATES Kryptonite type weaknesses, neither aluminum nor anti-light will fix Scadrial's problems
  9. "Well hi Cess, do you want to stay with us?"
  10. MODS! BRING DOWNVOTES BACK! Why!? Why are you mixing ketchup and milk? What happened to you as a child?
  11. I am cannonically older than you.
  12. I feel I've seen this before
  13. They would have to invest in the system first, but yes.
  14. Must be Rithmatist 2 then
  15. It would require a lot of Lerasium, as even Elend wasn't doing anything overly impressive, and Shards would likely be even harder to effect than stuff inside people.
  16. Ati's scene? Pre catacebdre
  17. Shardplate would block it due to it's investiture, just like how you can't push on something that's inside someone's body. Aluminum wouldn't break plate any easier because it doesn't take away other powers it's just immune itself.
  18. Plate would block the manipulation, but that is a viable tactic
  19. Brandon considers them one metal
  20. I don't think Honor's specific modifications to Honorblades should be taken as the norm. Normal Shardblades should be the basis.
  21. Likely the same atoms, perpendicularities are often describe as piercing all three realms so they should just pop through without needing to be deconstructed/reconstructed.
  22. Well so did Rayse but look how that turned out.
