55 | -> '''Red Mage:''' Most plans are ''critically'' flawed by their own logic. [[SpannerInTheWorks A failure at any step will ruin everything]]. That's just basic cause and effect. It's easy for a good plan to fall apart. Therefore, a plan that has '''[[CrazyEnoughToWork no attachment]]''' to logic cannot be stopped.
