Given that magic is a force capable of bending the rules of reality itself, I would wager that the only limits to the potential of magic are the imagination of those using it and the amount of magic they could bring to bear on a problem.
Another solid chapter, even if we're still more or less in the training montage. Showing Andromalius' development as something that takes him time and effort to obtain is good, and I'm looking forward to him getting further into the mysteries and real fights!

In the original story, there was barely any training, and I want to remedy that. I want to show that he's not powerful because he has potential, but he learned to be powerful because of his potential. His power didn't just spring up from nowhere. Even the people with good athletic genes have to train to become good, after all.
The training montage, however, will have to end at some point. Although, I'd argue, our life is one long training montage. When you stop learning, you stop living, in my opinion.
However, the conspiracy against Luna and her allies is happening, so the relative peace wouldn't last as long as one would hope.
1.
Is Andromalius the type of guy that thinks if something is new that must means better ?
Oh hey i lost an arm but I have stick instead which is surely better
Without hands you lost precision,the magic field won't give you that and other things
The first thing that I can think about that can be an example about that is trying to use your mouse to draw on PC or even worse VR
2.
Also magic ........ it's just another type of energy ,it's not apex when compared to others energies.
The plus is that you can just access it biologically but that also has cons and limitations.
Think about trying to move water.
Biologically you can use your mouth or hands but that's not enough
That's why artificial way helps .Create a bucket or other things
Also you can use artificial method to boost biological ,create a little personal device (for example crystal) to store magic for you to use as boost or something else.
Or if you don't have biological capabilities use artificial method to create a way to use magic
In short biological way have too many cons ,limitations or is just not enough.
If humans didn't use artificial methods we wouldn't be here
3.
The training montage gave me flashbacks from Mordhau š
The part about faints especially š¢
4.
Also in previous chapter he was talking how Canterlot is the best ,Equestria can't conquered and all
Simple answer to that
You don't have to capture just destroy it
Artillery,create an avalanche, destroy supports of the city ,starve it,poison the water,mine the bottom of the mountain and many others

To be honest, magic is better than hands. Precision is there, by the way - it's only difficult to be precise with heavy objects or many objects.
I'd say magic has a lot of similarities with muscle. You can achieve a lot naturally, but you'd achieve more (at a cost) using steroids and other things. In my canon, ponies didn't need to invent much because magic can do it. That's why their technological progress is slow compared to what humanity has achieved.
Oh, I trained real swordfighting. Still remember the pain of being struck in the wrong places. I definitely remember the difficulties of training, too.
When Andromalius use it for the first time, it will rock every magic common sense in the Equus.
Thanks for the chapter ^_^.
holy shit how fast do you writhe
9757252
As fast as I can. I stopped being lazy, now I'm a productive machine of creativity.
9756716
That would certainly happen.

Watch, someone will die, Andromalius will Res them, and then both will get chewed out. Then Andro, (who has discovered that the one(s) reaming him lost someone, or a lot of someones, close to them) drops the bombshell, "If you could have saved XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX would you?! Or would you have CONSCIOUSLY DECIDED to allow them to stay dead?!"
<Because until you can say 'Yes' with complete honesty, get off my back.>
PS. If there are 4-5 del comments below this, they were 'butt-dials'. Sorry for the inconvenience.
As one of the demons in homm 6 pointed out, no demon really dies, their soul return to sheogh, the Homeland of the demons, to be reborn.
Don't know how closely you're going to follow the story, but I just thought this would help.
That discussion about magic reminds me a bit the Sword of Truth books, specifically Richardās approach to magic: by not knowing what is considered āpossibleā and āimpossibleā he is able to step outside the bounds of magic simply because he doesnāt realize they are there. Andro possibly being able to truly resurrect someone simply because he ādoesnāt know he canātā would be great.

Andro dies, is reborn as Mike thousands of years from Androās death and his reborn self is pulled back to his home world.
So wait, Andro didn't tell or explain his strange dream to Luna... welp I hope this doesn't become forgotten or backfire on him later in the story.
I love the worldbuilding A very fine base to a complex story i guess
Celestia is probably secretly fuming that Luna teach a 'evil deceitful creature'. What is she doing overall i wonder? She waited a millenia for Lunas return and yet she seem to be fine speak with her one every mealtime?
Odd Celestia dont try 'play nice'. This Stallion from another world has knownlage after all. Better to know something and not use it than not having it and being in need of it!
9756059
Love the important details of the storys are there. Better to have one good training montage and hint of more 'off screen' than just mention it with a backhand comment like many other do...
Great overall story so far
9756716
Creativity is a tool. Tools can be used in many ways.
A simpel pencil that is used normaly to write and paint a picture can be mighty just as a dagger or a sword.
Ever see Batmans joker performed a magic trick?
9757295
I enjoy this story like a Changeling would 'heart and hooves day' or a 'royal wedding'

I wonder if they ever think of using Crystals to store mana. Like Andro hr someone else has a big pool to dra from, so lets make a storage full of it. As ilike to say: better have 'it' without use rather than have a need of it but lacking 'it'. In a reasonable limit. After all we cant just fill the Castle storage room with mana filled crystals and bodypills of Waifu-Luna

Damn... That deep
Nice~
