I've read that there's a dice pool cap of 20. Some of my runners REALLY cheesed out their characters, and they have nearly 17 dice and 6 edge. They have been asking me what happens when they roll edge? Is the dice pool cap a hard limit, edge or not? Or does it only count for their base pool? This matters because in normal SR, it's only an optional rule, but in missions it seems like a hard rule.
