Alright, all posted. We'll go over this one piece by piece to explain it. The italicized parts are from the jutsu.
Description: As the founders of the puppetry technique, the Otsutuski clan have made great strides in mechanical engineering which has allowed them to make various multi-purposed puppets. However, they've also made strides in the manipulation of these puppets, granting them the ability to utilize their puppets remotely and without the need for chakra strings.
All self explanatory, the clan is noted for their mastery of puppetry techniques, able to use puppets sand chakra strings.
Otsutsuki shinobi are capable of embedding their chakra into their puppets to allow them to act on their own recognizance as pseudo-sentient beings, independent of the user's direct control. Because they are free enough to act independently they simulate robots or clones in this regard. As a result, the puppets are free to move about at much longer ranges than they would under the control of chakra strings.
Again, easy to understand. Puppets are able to be used up to long range and seemingly fight by their selves while the user attacks and uses jutsu on his own as well. This allows you to combo them easier, using the puppets for close ranged attacks while you attack from long range.
However, due to the advanced chakra manipulation required for this technique, the user cannot cannot use any sort of clone jutsu whilst their chakra fuel the puppets. The user can control up to 3 puppets in total with this technique and can maintain it as long as their chakra allows them to.
Because of the level of control, this prevents Otsutsuki members from using puppetry and clones together. At -5 chakra per turn for each puppet, this can translate to up to 15 per turn for three. Again, simple enough to understand.
Note: Puppets used under this technique have the same freedom of movement as any other sentient being (clones, summons, shinobi, etc).
Note: For humanoid like puppets, aside from their mechanized capabilities, they are allowed to use ordinary, non-chakra oriented taijutsu.
Note: Unlike actual clones, puppets cannot be put under genjutsu, nor will the user gain knowledge of the puppets experience if they are destroyed or the technique is released. Puppets are not linked to their user through any means that would allow them to sense each other's presence through this technique.
Now, the restrictions and notes. First, the puppets aren't hindered in any way in terms of movement. They move at average speed (Kage speed) if not noted. Second, perhaps the most interesting note, humanoid puppets can only use Taijutsu. However, Otsutsuki can create animal or creature based puppets that differ greatly from the normal ones. This means you can create puppets fashioned after animals with unique abilities that the humanoid puppets can't have. I'm not sure if normal puppeteers can have animal based puppets, but the Otsutsuki ones can be considered superior to them if so. And of course, even though they are similar to clones, they aren't the same as clones. Questions?
