Using two psychic powers at the same time in HU2

[Bones]

I would like to ask a question to the experts here.
Is there any psychic power or skill specifically for psychics that would allow you to use two psychic powers at the same time?
ex. You activate one power on the first round such as psi-sword from HU2 and then on the next round you activate intuitive combat from PU1 so they are both running at the same time. Please say there is a way to do this. My GM likes to stick to the book.

I'm not aware that there's any limit to how many psi powers someone can have active at the same time.

Unless the description said otherwise, you should be able to use more than one at the same time.

Well, the description of Intuitive Combat says that you cannot use any other powers while using it, but Psi-Sword lasts for 5 minutes per level. So if you activate the Psi-Sword first will it just keep going even if you're not concentrating on it and then you can also activate Intuitive Combat?

Then you have your answer.

Yeah you can use more than one psi power at a time if it is ISP based powers. If you are using animal psionics like those listed in the After the Bomb RPG the you only can use one at a time.

Now the issue of using other psi powers with the telepathic combat power....all the groups I know white out that line. Or any powers active before the combat power its turned on stay active since you already paid for them.

If OP really wants both at once, there are a couple ways.

Some rune weapons can create psi-swords. Or if you had a Psymbiote inside your body it could make one for you, while you used Intuitive combat.

Also if Psi-Sword were built into a Gizmoteer or Psi-Mechanic weapon it would be the device using the power, not you (you would just be feedin it ISP) so that might bypass the restriction.

My thoughts would be yes, that would be fine. Summoning it is a power, but after that it is a thing that you have. It does not take concentration to maintain.

Though I'd consider ruling differently for Cyberknight since it functions a little different, but that just feels like a jerk move. Alternately, being formes from will it might be even easier for them to maintain. Meh, disregard this paragraph. I leave it up as a window into my thought processes.

Tor was talking about the pionic Gizmoteer RCC from the South America 2 Rifts Worldbook not Gizmoteers OCCs in the Ninja and Superspies book.

The is also that if the Char finds a 'crystal magic' device (pf: island at the edge of the world) they could use that (if it's power mimiced a psi power).
