<snip Crash & Burn deck>

I'd add Fuchi and delete Club Vortex....(always go for the cash cow)...also
I'd add an Ice Queen and Sticky Fingers ...(what you can't have, you can
also keep from the other player)...I usually build a 70/10 deck myself.

Cool.

Just a couple of things. First, there is no reason to keep your runners all
as deckers and mages. Some support will be needed. Rockers and guard would
be most welcome in this deck, and you could afford to get rid of some of the
less effective mages, such as Jackyl and Dante. I'd pop in a couple of
Knuckles and some skilled runners (eg. Hatchetman)

I'd take out the Extended Clip and the Ammo. I'd also look for 2 Sleep to
replace 2 of the Fireballs.

Good stuff, though I would add a Talismonger.

I like it, except the Corporate secratary. Add more Statics if you want
Recon.

>Specials:
>Eternal vow
>Infected chrome
>nerps

Why Eternal Vow?

>Specials(stingers)
>G.A.Q.'s
>Deja vu
>Innocent bystander


Good stuff, though I would add more, maybe another GAQ another Deja Vu and a
couple Loaded Dice

>Challenges:

Add more! I would take out the Retinal Scanner, the Free Spirit, and the
Feeding Ghouls, and look for Highway Showdown, Lone Star Patrol, more
Maglocks, and try for 20 total, with a good selection of sleaze
requirements, and a large number that will send the team back, as well as
some with odd sleaze requirements to set off the alarm.

You must have at least 6 objectives in a deck.
