Default Re: Cinematic Advantages as Alternate Abilities

I would allow it- the advantages have so much overlap that even a substantial discount shouldn't cause any particular unbalance. Note that, by Rules as Written, he would need to spend a ready maneuver to switch between the two (both abilities enhance attacks, but neither is an attack in the sense that Innate Attack or Affliction are), and, when in Weapon Master mode, he wouldn't be able to use skills that have Trained by a Master and not Weapon Master as a prerequisite. A generous GM could probably wave these drawbacks without serious balance issues- as I said, these are two heavily overlapping advantages.
