Re: Change (was: (TFT) Jobs table: ...)
should be noted: I have no problem with magic as a science, its just
that one has to explain it much better that way, I find (if players
research it, that is).

Also, part of the reason to equate magic-as-in-spells with
engineering is that casting a spell you know is not research/
science. You know how it's supposed to turn out. This does not mean
that there can't be magical research. It would be much as scientific
research. You're looking for principles that you can use, or you're
looking for something new that you can reproduce. Magically, if you
can reproduce it, it's a spell.
And if you're looking for the various bases for magic, a good start
might be Lyndon Hardy's The Master Of Five Magics.
