Team Combat Training

I'd like to see RWBY and JNPR fight in a melee exercise that draws out a lot about how the various characters think and fight. Jaune will naturally get very annoyed at Nora, Pyrrha and Ren think they need to 'protect' him. Meanwhile, RWBY demonstrate that they're great individual fighters but are less co-ordinated as a team.

Naturally, Glynda has a lot of scathing commentary for both teams. WC-83 wrote: you know, we haven't seen combat training at all during this volume. Oh sure there's the initiation, but aside from that, they haven't learned anything they haven't already learned from Signal or Sanctum (in fact some people already know about what they're teaching in Grimm Studies and History) So it seems like the Beacon episodes, aside from telling the audience the history and biology of RWBY are useless, perhaps RT should focus more on the things they should learn as opposed to what they already learn (and it would still be kickass) Pretty much my sentiments, WC-83; it rather feels like RT is squandering the school setting they're in right now. And throwing in some training for the festival is a good idea at any rate - especially if it helps show more growth.

The Train Job 2

I'd like for Team RWBY, in between semesters, to be on a train journey somewhere when White Fang attack (were they after Weiss or something else? It's never revealed). Against all expectations, it isn't Blake vs. Adam... but Weiss vs. Adam whilst Ruby, Blake and Yang mow through WF mooks like they're wheat. Also, it would be interesting if Weiss tried to fight him but she is captured and Blake has to chase Adam across the train. This would be a very interesting scenario, I think.
