Subject: a few card questions
Date: Wed, 1 Jul 1998 15:08:36 -0500
Hi all,
There are a few Underworld cards that i don't have yet but don't
know if i want/would use them. Can anyone tell me what the card text is
for the fallowing cards?

Switchblade
Louis Da'Brusier
Lone Star Sergeant
Coffin Hotel
and
Trogs

I've heard/seen people talk about the cards, but don't know exactly what
they do.
Thanks :-)
Wayne

No problem. I´m always glad to help.

Switchblade: Gear (Hand-to-Hand Weapon)
+X/+0 to user. X=Melee of user. May be played as a Stinger. If played as
a Stinger on a non-Ganger Runner, trash Switchblade after resolving
combat. Cost 2 Nuyen.

Louie ´da Bruiser: Mafia Thug
Cost 8 Nuyen, Melee, 6/6 (A1)
Troll Runner
(A+X) X=Louie´s Melee. This armor is not cumulative with Gear/Armor
cards.

Lone Star Sergeant
Lone Star Contact
May be used once per turn. You may modify a D6 roll for a Lone Star card
that you control by +1 or -1. Cost 3 Nuyen

Coffin Hotel
Street Location
Turn a Runner and pay 1 Nuyen to visit Coffin Hotel. Visiting Runners
may stay at Coffin Hotel for any length of time, but must remain turned
while visiting. Runners may return to your safehouse at the beginning of
your turn. Any number of Runners may visit Coffin Hotel. If Coffin Hotel
is trashed/fragged, Runners present on Coffin Hotel are trashed/fragged.
Cost 0 Nuyen.

Trogs
Special/Gang HQ
You may only deploy Trogs if all Gangers you control are orks or trolls.
After deploying Trogs, you may not deploy non-ork/troll Gangers. All
Gangers you control are now Trogs. If an all-Trog team attempts a
shadowrun, each Trog present receives (A+1) until end of shadowrun. A
player may have only one Gang HQ in play at a time. Cost 3 Nuyen.

I thought Louie had Melee-2, but I could be wrong.

Louie does have Melee-2. Which means he has armor of 3 total. Nasty.
