I am the Storyguide of a Mission Impossible style TC. My players are going to get their hands on a special weapon, not big deal, just have a few more tags that was expected and maybe a gift, not sure yet. But I want to make sure the weapon makes sense in the rules.
While I understand how to do all the stuff for creating a super science one doubt came to my mind, there is one thing that makes little sense, the Maximum Bonus Tags.
Lets say I want to build a Laser canon with 7 tags (Ranged: Medium 1, Mounted, Tactical Sight 1, Incendiary 2, Heavy 1, I didn’t add quality tag as I would use the enhancement for that end), it would be possible to buy with the Loaded edge, but it should be invented by a non-billionaire. Is that impossible as a rank 5 item have no more than 5 tags?
And a Rank 1 item has just one tag? It’s like inventing a super tech weapon that is a cheap knife.
Can I buy tags instead of Edges/Gifts?
TL/DR: How many tags can a Super Weapon have?
Answer: The number of tags is correct, but you can add Edges And Gifts that can grant tags if needed. Also you don’t need to add Quality / Maneuverable tags, as they use the enhancements.
