UNIT has access to the best technology and researchers on Earth, as well as a lot of salvaged alien gadgets. Their scientists are at the cutting edge. Effects: The character has no penalty when operating technology from one Technology Level above his home time period. Normally, a character from the present day (Technology Level 5) would have a -2 penalty when trying to use something from the 22nd century (Technology Level 6), but Cutting Edge eliminates this penalty.
