sythyry | IC: New Weapons Systems

And here are some more specific choices for new armaments.

I note that Locador effects are popular. Very well; they are effective too, and exotic, and I can probably do well with them. But the more Locador one uses in one place, the greater chance there is of troublesome other problems, so I don't want to do everything with Locador.

And I am inclined to have at least one of the Durudor effects, because those are quite rare -- even more rare than Locador effects -- and difficult to resist or counter them with magic. Also in many places there are legal obstacles to making them, but, as a master-smith, I have the guild-right. And as a long-time nendrai toy, I have the skill, too.

Forgive me if I don't want to use Mentador, no matter how sensible it might be.

While a cannon capable of throwing three thousand heavy iron spikes a minute would be exceedingly intimidating, the practical considerations (both magicotechnical and sociopolitical) are nearly as intimidating.
