Asumpt away.

You'll note that Quirk and Agent Honeybee both have lightsabres (listed as
TL5lightsabers(11). In the rulebook Lightsabres are listed as TL6 and 10
points. I've added a point to their cost and taken them in a TL5 setting.
This makes sense when you consider Honeybee is a favoured agent of
SheWhoMustBeObeyed and therefore has access to the really spiffy weapons.
Quirk gets one 'cause he stole one of Honeybee's and refuses to give it back
(and just TRY taking it off him)...
On the whole however don't go overboard getting the high-tech item, limit
them to special characters or experimental vehicles.
> 2) There is no upper limit on the number and/or power of the troops
Not my call really. But until it's said otherwise there isn't a points
limit. I've only included the points on the sheet as an exercise. That and
it's helpful in some cases (like the vehicles) exactly what is included (air
conditioning holes to Briktorian vehicles will be provided mid-game for no
charge)
As for power, there is a point at which more troops will win a contest
regardless of the superspecialness of the smaller force. My recommendation
is not to go crazy trying to tune up troops, it'll only end in frustration
remembering who is who. (A couple of troops with one or two common
modifications is fine)

James (who isn't keen for a points limit...)
