Here's the lates word I've gotten from Jim N. on SRTCG Q&A:

~!~!~!~!~!

Q. When it comes to Runners on Retainer, who is the attacker and
defender (shadowrunning player and challenge owner)? It makes a
difference as the attacker gets to select pairing up of Runners.

A. The "Runners on Retainer" are the defending Runners.

Q. When Lone Star Undercover is played, is chosen Runner's threat
rating that is added to the Challenge the printed threat rating on the
card or his current threat rating adjust by gear and wounds?

A. His current Threat rating is added to the Challenge.

Q. If an opponent fails to sleaze a personnel or Lone Star challenge
that doesn't have a threat rating to add to (LS Beat Cops, Scatter
Brain Raid, ...) is it still legal to play LS Undercover to at least
trash a Runner? (I figure yes, but figured it best to confirm.)>>

A. I'd say no (although Mike and I have never discussed this). If the
challenge doesn't have a Threat rating, there's nothing to add the
Threat rating of the Undercover Lone Star cop to.

Coincidentally, this contradicts a previous answer we got on this
question (as taken from the SRCard Q&A):

Q1: Player A goes on a Shadowrun, and Player B has Runners on
Retainer, and substitutes the Challenge for a team of Runners.

A1: Player B is the Attacker

I'll check with Jim N. and get a 2-out-of-three. :o)
