Me! Me!

Also if this is a tie-in with the SJG pattern-matching cultist demon spawn summoning game of the same name™ then I'm all in!

Box Outtake: Meta-Tech Spells
The GM might allow the creation of unique spells that can only be used once (or are otherwise limited). In such a case, cost them as SM -12 devices (p. 00) and stat out the spell as if it were a power – often with things like Requires Gestures, Requires Components, etc. Next, multiply cost by x1/5 as it’s a one-off ritual or spell. If the caster wants to use it again, they need to create it again from scratch.
These rules can also be used to create grimoires, spell scrolls, etc. that can be used to learn its content. Assign a value from Scaling Costs for Item Ubiquity (p. 00).

These are what I am especially looking forward to seeing.

I had tried to use Metatronic Generators to make crystals for your force sword that enhance either the blade or your powers prior to this--now there'll be rules for them.

This sounds like it could be useful for my idea of a La Résistance style campaign, which is basically XCom 2, if the aliens were actually Fae, and the resistance is reverse engineering Fae magic to create gear.

Registered just to make it clear this is the sort of release that I want more of !
