I don't have very much time this week, and would prefer a more narrowly-focused plan. @eaglejarl is cool with same.
Sorry, what's the actual question?

Ah, found you. Had me worried there for a sec. Though I might've imagined this post, and wouldn't that be awkward.
Also consider: Akane gets a look at our (second) place of origin. We can tell her all about- well, not all. But the nice bits were nice.
Well now I want an over-the-top, literal tech tree, with branches and leaves and flowers and shit.

- Yes.
He wants to know Mari's reaction.
Oh, did you want me to speak up? My mistake.
Let me suggest some specializations and stuff that might be done with them.
Weaponcrafting - At highest levels allows you to work with chakra-active material and craft weapons that can channel chakra. At lower levels allows you to produce reinforced weapons personally designed and weighted for an individual combat style and able to take the rigor of ninja combat.
Traps - Not sure where to go other than "harder to spot" and "harder to avoid".
Radio Technology - The principles of radio actually have been discovered but crafting remote communication devices is a closely held secret and each unit must be hand-built along with its batteries. At lower levels units are backpack-size or bigger... only "portable" because ninja have superhuman strength. At max level you can custom-build headset radios that allow an entire team to coordinate while spread out over a forest. (QMs might veto this one, but I thought I'd try it.)
Architecture - Incorporate traps, hidden passages, and choke points into a building. Also handles lock design and lock-picking. And designing buildings, of course.
Puppetry - Used to build combat puppets that can be controlled with chakra strings.
Clockwork - Used to create clockwork mechanics. Primarily used for constructing clocks and watches that allow coordination down to the second and make navigation much easier at night and over sea. At high levels can construct clockwork-powered tools that are able to move and act on their own to some extent.
[jk] Giant Moon Destroying Death Lasers - Used to construct giant lasers that can destroy the moon. Of course that's at the highest level. You have to start small with lasers able to destroy only smaller asteroids.

Dropped my training plans since vote is long enough already and training won't happen anyway. I'd suggest @MadScientist and @1234qwerty do the same, since we're apparently going for arrival+talk combo after all, no matter the winning plan. So...

I think he is looking for ideas and feedback on how to balance that.
@eaglejarl The tally is currently missing my plans and the people who voted for them...Don't tell me you finally got fed up with my whining and just put me on ignore?
(EDIT: Those are the plan I noticed you missed, the bot also missed @Muer'ci's plan, posted below this one)
I tried to gather all the instances of people voting for my plans here, but I might have missed someone:
@vali, don't edit your votes, post new ones instead. If your vote is before the actual plan the tally bot doesn't know to link to the right plan. Use [-] tag to remove your previous vote.

Ah. @Velorien if that's the case, some thoughts on how it could be done:
- Treat the specializations like a separate skill, buying each up from 1. Mechanically, this seems kind of infeasible, since it will be cheaper to get an extra die in every specialization than it would have been to get MechApt 16 in the absence of specializations
- Treat specializations like continuations of MechApt, paying full price for each one (e.g. Traps 16 and Architecture 16 cost 16 each). This probably ends up nerfing the skill a little too hard.
- Borrow from the elemental jutsu mechanic and make buying specialization levels half (or some other fraction, perhaps smaller if there are many specializations) cost up until that specialization equals the highest level the character currently has. So if we buy Traps 16 it costs 16, and then Architecture 16 only costs 8.

Took me a minute to realize what was going on: I run the Counterbot script from the command line, then send the contents to TextEdit to copy/paste into the thread. Unfortunately, if a file is open in TextEdit and you re-open it from the command line, OSX doesn't check if the contents have changed. I had forgotten to close the file the last time I posted a count, so what got posted above was actually the results of the previous tally.
Anyway, I've updated the post above with the correct tally.
