Comment on Brockton's Celestial Forge

  1. Alec is in a different position than the rest of the Undersiders in that he doesn’t really have a dog in the fight (no offense to Rachel). Rachel needs steady income to support her shelter. Brian has to keep up appearances to get custody of Aisha. Lisa is trying to manage the chaos, first to get in a more advantageous positions and then having to deal with the problem of Noelle being a Coil failsafe, and Taylor has her undercover work. For Alec its about safety, reasonable comfort, and staying away from his family. He can handle disruption better than the rest of the team and can also recognize a train wreck in progress when he sees one. It makes him more willing to speak up honestly about the situation.

    Bandit Gunsmith is limited to weapons and defensive items (actually says shields specifically in the perk, but I’m stretching that a bit). It won’t work on tech that doesn’t fall into either category and Joe can only build technology he understands (not exactly a limitation for him) and that has some reasonable progression from the items he was using. No turning a baseball bat into a machine gun. Size would also be a limit, but Joe’s Gurren Lagann means he can fully sidestep that issue and build until the scale of the item becomes an obstacle.
