From GenRich@AOL.COM Fri Feb 14 10:03:15 1997 Date: Fri, 14 Feb 1997 02:33:03 -0500 From: Peter Hill Reply-To: Netrunner Discussion List To: Multiple recipients of list NETRUNNER-L Subject: Questions/IRC Game Report/Trade Request IRC Game Report Yesterday on IRC I was playing against Berserk, who insisted on playing Corp. I was testing out a new Runner deck -- Precision Bribery with Loan from Chiba as the bit engine, and Scaldan/Code Viral Cache plus some HQ attack for fun. All of these cards were, of course, backed up with plenty of Time to Collect, which also protected the Fall Guy and Bartmoss via Umbrella Policy. Berserk started the game by playing Annual Reviews, followed by installing three cards in subsidiary data forts with Edgerunner. For his third action he advanced two of these cards once each with Team Restructuring. I thought that was it, and was already grinning at the Hunt Club BBS in my hand, but Mr. B then rezzed the two advanced cards which turned out to be Pacifica Regional AIs. Now B had three bits and three cards left in his hand. [3/3] Then he used a Pacifica Counter for another action to play a Team Restructuring, with which he advanced one of the Pacificas and the card in SDF3. He continued as follows: Pacifica counter: Annual Reviews [2 bits/4 cards] Pacifica counter: Team Restructuring: advance SDF3 and SDF2. [1/3] Pacifica counter: Team Restructuring: advance SDF2 and SDF3; score Hostile Takeover in SDF3. [5/2] Pacifica counter: Team Restructuring: advance SDF1 and SDF2. [4/1] Pacifica counter: Annual Reviews [4/3] Pacifica counter: Team Restructuring: advance SDF1 and SDF2. [3/2] Pacifica counter: Annual Reviews [3/4] Pacifica counter: Team Restructuring: advance SDF1 and SDF2. [2/3] Pacifica counter: install and rez ACME Savings & Loan [14/2] He went on like this for sometime, but I resigned when he installed a Blood Cat, because I didn't think it was too fun to get killed before having played a single card. I guess we can count this as another deck where Hunt Club BBS is of little help. --Peter
