Default Increasing ST req for weapons?

I am adding Hyperdense Blades to a great axe in a TL12 campaign and it increases the ST requirement by 1.5

How do I get GCA to show it in the stat block for the weapon?

How would it be affected by SM -1 modifier on the weapon which changes the normal 12 ST req to a 10?

Ultra Tech has a Melee Quality modifier called "Composition: Hyperdense Blade (TL11)". Did you add that to the weapon?

I don't know what SM modifier that might be, or where from, so I need more information. Generally, if the modifier just gives a -2 to the minst, then that should get applied before the multiplier modifiers.

I was referring to the min ST large melee weapons require to handle them properly. a great axe has a 12 adjusted down to 10 from -1 Size Mod.

I don't know how I missed the composition for it, but it does address the minst by changing it from 10 to 15.

I didn't realize when I answered before that there were modifiers to apply a change in Size Modifier to weapons. I have now seen that there are, so I now have more clarity about what your question actually was asking.

I'm glad the Hyperdense modifier worked to fix the remainder of the issue.
