Hey folks, quick Question......

Are Objectives recycled after they've been taken? i.e. I've just
taken Nofretou den, (one nasty objective, good against troll decks I
might add.) Does it get trashed, (and thus recycled if I go through the
stack.....) Or is it effectively Fragged, (and thus lnsuring I've won
by time the stack is gone.....)

On a related note, does this apply if Sadeer-Krup takes it?

I've been playing that they are fragged, and my friends say trashed, and
thus recyclable...... They are concern because of one of my older decks
came into play last week.....

One of my older decks I was using, had 4 Sadeers, 4 Cherry Bombs, 4
Fuchi's and a ton of Deckers..... have Sadeer grab the objectives, bomb
him before he could win, then snag the rep with fuchi.......

Objectives are NOT recycled. Once they're gone, they're gone. Thus, your
older deck is a valid one. The strategy behind it has been discussed here
before, by Hansen and some others (if I remember correctly).

Not arguing the point so much as making an observation. On
Doomsday Device, it specificly states that it is fragged when it
goes off.

(Note - the actual terminology is usually 'scored', not taken.)

Objectives, when scored, go to the player's Reputation pile, for easy
reference as to total Reputation. Several cards can affect this (most
notably Lofwyr's Schemes, which moves the 'scored' Objective to the
bottom of the stack).

> On a related note, does this apply if Saeder-Krupp takes it?

Here's another of those 'several' cards. S-K, by its text, places the
Objective at the bottom of its owner's pile (the better for Lofwyr to
win, my dear). Objectives that trash or frag themselves (Room 5B78,
Doomsday Device, um, I might be missing one) *don't* go to the
Reputation pile or the bottom of the stack; they just go .. someplace ..
else.

Slight, slight spoiler -- one of the cards in Corp War plays off this
rule. I can't tell you more than that because I, um, forget.
