Honouring REQUIRES, EXCLUDES between contexts

[Fitz]

Should HD honour REQUIRES and EXCLUDES tags between contexts? By that I mean, should I be able to create a Character Disad which requires that the character have a specific power?

I'm adding some robot/cyborg-specific elements to my TE template, one of which is an addition to Life Support: May Be Disassembled. I want to include a Disad: Easily disassembled (the robot falls to bits if it's damaged) which REQUIRES LS:May Be Disassembled.

However, HD doesn't seem to recognise a REQUIRES/EXCLUDES tag unless they refer to an ability within the same context.

Does that make sense? I think I've confused myself writing it all out :)

No, it doesn't. REQUIRES and EXCLUDES can only be applied to Modifiers and Adders.

Dang, I suspected as much. Now I'll have to rely on my memory :)
