    Can you add a tag that covers Gunslinger, Commando and Sharpshooter? Because some people might think of including all three tags for a build that has not just Marksman prowess but also has e.g. Chemist traits. It will be very useful to identify a versatile build in ballistic weaponry and saves 2 spaces that someone might want to fill in. It will be useful for combination builds and the tags would be like: Marksman, Chemist, Craftsman.

    What do you reckon?

     Help me clarify - are you saying creating ONE tag that covers multiple tags? So "Character Build Marksman" covers a character that specializes in all 3 ballistic perks? and so on?

    My main hesitation is that...where do you stop? Like, why would we leave out heavy gunners in that scenario? Or do then we need a tag that combines heavy gunners that use power armor...like "Character Build Tank"? 

    I'm not opposed, but help me clarify and we'll chat about it a bit.

    I understand where you're coming from. You're referring to jack-of-all-trades builds. These are a lot easier to do in Fallout 4 and I can easily see a build needing more than three gameplay tags. We could remove the maximum three gameplay tags rule.

    That's probably the easier solution. Make the limit 5...

    Yes, that's probably a good idea. I can add it and put a few on there.

    Ever since posting my Samurai I'v been thinking that an Automatron tag could be added to our list: builds based on constructing robots. I know that could be considered crafting but we're talking robots here, not settlements.

    hmm - yeah - do you think there's enough to make it worthwhile? I'm trying to think how many might fit...
