This has been bugging me. Shouldn't Wheeler and Roadrash get low cost
drones instead of vehicles? I realize Riggers often use vehicles and
not just drones, but in this game it seems like drones are the emphasis.
(I don't have the Yellowjacket card, so maybe that's why I feel this
way).

The Adam Bomb card says that it deal damage to "each runner/challenge"
present. Is the damage supposed to apply to only the current challenge,
or to that challenge stack, or to all the stacks on that objective?

Just making sure,

Teos.

Actually, Wheeler's special ability works against his skill - he's got
Piloting-3, but you can't use *any* Drones while in the Yellowjacket.

So suddenly those two Doberman's you played on him look pretty useless,
yah?

(And given the stats for the Dobey - 8/8, A2, normal cost of 8Y -
there's no way on Earth I want for someone to be able to pull through
their deck for that one!

Only the current Challenge the runner team is facing. Sort of hard for
Adam to Bomb the Killer Drone when it hasn't even been issued the
command to engage the team yet.
