I busting up laughing out loud when I first read it. A friend
didn't get it and ... sadly, I had to explain it. Lost all of its humor
of course. I found most of the cards pretty humorous. My favorite
one if the Feeding Ghouls challenge. "I don't have to outrun them. I
just have to outrun you." Yeah, I heard this before regarding bears,
but it take on so much more with the ghouls. Especially after my friend
had to frag one of his favorite runners. MUAAHAHAHA. (Evil laugh,
normally reserved for my comments as GM.)

I would like to see a set of Immortal Elves. Now, wait a minute
before you start flaming me. Wouldn't it feel great to frag Ehran the
Scribe?

I don't know..It might not be too very bad. I was surprised when I
was checking on the priced to send Seattle maps overseas..It was only
$3.75 US for the shipping to Aus..Of course a box of cards will be a
bit more..But It shouldn't be too bad..

Skuzzy was saying they we're looking at putting Sam Verner in (much to
Caric's chagrin). He's thinking that once you delpoy Sam Verner you
must choose whether he's a decker or shaman. Or perhaps he comes in a
decker, but each legwork phase you roll a 1d6 and a 5+ means he's
become a shaman.

I'd also like to see Bandit, Argent and Neko (though Neko probably
won't be out 'til the PhysAd expansion).

Skuzzy had said about 50 cards will be swapped out in the 2nd
printing, and some are slated to be Prime Runners.

Well, Tinner, I made sure to get another Humanis Polyclub card for those
special purposes. Can't wait to use it on ya again.

Thats the only disadvantage that I can see is that one card adding 1 nuyen
to the price of deployment. Now a Human deck on the other hand....

Well, Bull has some unintentional signed cards from the ink transfering onto

OK, I've pretty much got my "Needs" and the "For Trade/Sale" lists
wrapped up.

It'll take me another day or two to HTMLize them into tables and post
them on my webpage. Right now they're in simple MS Word .doc format,
but if anyone wants a look-see let me know and I'll send you copies.

(Thought this might be a bit much to post the list, but if everyone
would rather just open the floodgates we can go that route too.)

Since it's been down since early this morning, and Paolo didn't make an
appearance on IRC this morning from either of his accounts, I would assume
some routers are down in/near Italy.

MIME-Version: 1.0

What's everybody opinion on the Prime Runner cards? I tried using
Dodger and Dirk Montgomery last night and found them to be kind of
useless compared to their cost.

I had a decent decker in play already so I never deployed Dodger. I
didn't want to pay the cost each turn. I used Dirk but I got tired of
paying for him. When I drew him I only had one contact left in my deck
so his skill to get contacts was not all that impressive. Then after I
used his skill to get the last contact he was useless. Not real big in
the skills department and a nuyen sink.

I think I may leave these two out of my deck. Are there others that are
awesome to use? Am I using them wrong?

Ok. How does one use the Archie McDeven Card. It is a detective card and
at the bottom it says that for 3 nuyen, turn him to turn a unturned runner.

Ok, please explain. I am quite confused on how to use him..

Subject: Re: Detectives

When you spend the 3 and turn him you can turn another players
runner. I have only played once, so I am guessing at this senario.
You can use this special trait of archies in on of the greatest ways.
Lets say that another player is going to attempt a run and his first
group of challenges is yours. You know that you put a challenge in
there that needs technical and you notice that the other player only
has one runner with technical. You pay the 3 and turn Archie and
declare that the other players runner with technical is turned also.
Since only unturned runners can go on a run you know that the other
players runners are going to have to face that challenge because they
can no longer as a group sleaze it. This brings up another question.
Lets say someone did the exact same thing to me, can I declare that my
group of shadowrunners is no longer going to attempt that run? If I
could this brings up another way to "bluff" the other players.

I don't think that SRTCG supports as complicated a timing system
as, say, Magic does. Once a player declares that he's going on
a shadowrun and turns his runners to do so, that's it. It's too
late to use Archie McDeven to prevent anyone from going. If
you want to keep (from your previous example) the person with
technical from /not/ going, you need to pay 3 nuyen and turn
Archie during your opponents nuyen/card draw phase or some such.

Therefore, you couldn't use ARchie as a bluff like you described.

He works really nice to turn that last runner your oponent kept to
intercept the shadowrun on your turn.

You can also use him to turn a runner that may have an ability they
can be turned to use on your turn.

If his ability can be used as a Stinger (and I'm not sure if it can or
can't) then you could also turn a runner to keep them from going on an
opponents shadowrun.

Hey Loki,

Have you told Mike Nielsen about this list yet? I know it's new, but
if he's not too busy he might get some useful insight into our
thoughts on the game, and we could get the "Official Version" (TM) of
all rules disputes. Thought I'd mention it since you met him at Gen
Con.

Agreed. SRTCG's timing system is very simple. Whoever's turn it is
goes first. So to use Archie effectively in this method, you'd have to
chose a particular runner and turn them some time before the Shadowrun
phase (and obvioulsy after the refresh phase).

I sent Skuzzy and invite yesterday, in fact. He's been really busy
with the Underworld expansion and preparing for the 2nd printing. So
don't be disappointed if he doesn't make an appearance.

I agree with you though and would like to see him stick his head in
the door and say "hi."

No, the way I uderstand it, once you've declared a Shadowrun you must
at least encounter the first challenge before declaring you're going
to pull out. (Of course an "No Way Out" or "All or Nothing" stinger
forces you to go futher, and a Yamaha Rapier allows a runner to return
to the safe house.) Under normal circumstances though, at least that
first challenge will have to be dealt with.

I'd have to say that No, you can't. I think once you declare an action,
like a Shadowrun, you're stuck with it. Same thing with once you declare
that you will face the next challenge. If something happens to your team,
your screwed....

Exactly how that reads...

YOu can use him to Turn an opponents Runner, thus he can't use that runner
that turn...

Not yet, but I think, but that's because I simply don;t have enough
Rigger's and Drones yet. plus, as far as I can tell, a straight Rigger
deck will suffer the same way several other decks do... Not diverse enough
skills, though they would prob do well in the combats...

So far the best decks I seen have been ones with a little of eevrything...

Probably... I also have Dodger and don;t use him. There are cheaper
deckers out there, and my deck isn;t based around deckers...

Dirk, however, I wouldn;t use unless you put in a lot of contacts... If
you're only using a couple, you've wasted his special, especially if you
don;t get him out early... What are his stats and skills?

I have 2 that I love... Jack Skater is great. A 4/6 with a couple skills,
plus an ungodly Leadership (equal to the number of runners with him:)).

I also use Wheeler a lot. When he's put in play, you get to give him a
Vehicle from your deck for free... I love slapping a Bulldog on him...;]

From what I have seen, from the Primes that I have, they sometimes arent
worth using, or even having in your deck. The Profezzor is ok, but nothing
more than a sammie with melee 2 and the ability for 2 nuyen to give him tech
one.... Kinda disapointing.

So what you are saying is that this runner can be used at any time as long
as it is after the refresh phase of another players turn....

ok, but at what point in the round can I use him? as in, during what
actions can I not use him? I know that refresh of targeted player would be
ideotic, but what others. During the legwork phase?

I also have significantly more UNCOMMON cards to trade, but I haven't
had time to compile that list yet. If there is something specific you're
looking for, let me know...

If you are interested in any of the following cards, please send me a
list of what rare cards you have to trade. My need list is a heck of
a lot longer than my trade list below, so it's probably easier that
way...

Rares for trade
---------------
Adam Bomb (*)
Lord Torgo
Marek (2 for trade)
Moonshadow
Ripper

Highway Showdown

Dunklezahn's Black Book
Impossible Mission
Kamikaze Run

Ares Macrotechnology
Saeder-Krupp
Shadowland
The Hideaway

The Fat Man (2 for trade)
Yoshimo Chang

NERPS (3 for trade) (*)


(*) I am not particularly willing to trade these promo cards for cards that
can be obtained from normal boosters. If someone wants to make a /really/
good trade offer, than maybe. But since FASA (in their infinite stupidity,
IMNSHO) is going to force us to buy multiple copies of the same magazines that
most of us don't read in the first place to get the other promo cards, I
am leaning towards keeping these promo cards and trading them to get the
/other/ promo cards (Hatchetman 2057, Foxy Roxy, etc.)

You could even use him then, but your oponent would just unturn the
card afterwards. :o)

Yes, I'd say you could use Archie to turn a runner you didn't want
eligible to join a Shadowrun anytime up to when the runner would be
turned for the 'Run. Primarily this would happen during your
opponent's Legwork phase.

This would also apply to turning runners to prevent other abilities.
Liek Kromagnus earning nu yen during your opponent's legwork, or
deckers that do recon.

Different decks will have different cards (trust me I've bought enough
of them. :o) However, they follow the same formula for number of
rares, uncommons and commons in each deck. Can't remember how many of
each off hand (3 rares, but can't remember the rest).

It's kind of like that one Magic card that could do stuff like that...
Like, if the guy has a Skwraaaaaark out, you can keep him from
using it, which is cool.

Oh, here's something I was messing with when I was looking at
the cards.

Lets say I have three Riots in my hand, in the SRTCG, could I just
drop all three at the same time, therefore causing 6 damage
to everyone? This would be cool with a Skwrark because you could
nail almost everyone and the big Cyborg could clean up, or
something...

Wish I knew how this game worked. :P

Unless the card is designated Unique, where you could only have one in
the deck, I don't see why you couldn't do this.

Here's a good question that's arose as I've been working out two
offers to trade some cards.

What is the best way for getting the swapped cards from one party yo
another? I'm not expecting any list members will be out to screw each
other over, but here's what I've been considering as a method:

U.S. Mail (or int'l as case may be) with Return Receipt. This way the
cards ned to be signed for and you'll receive written confirmation the
other party got them.

Also, priority mail gives you that snazzy cardboard letter carrier to
avoid bent cards plus faster delivery.

All in all, you're looking about $4.00 U.S. postage if I recall costs
correctly. (Int'l will vary, of course.)

Anyone have other suggestions or opinions?

Loki, that is the best way to go. It is the most secure, and
relatively cheap. And they track those packages, so you don't have to
worry as much about lost shipments.

Also, they don't take many moons to arrive either. Generally 4-5 days
in the continental US.

For a second choice, I would say UPS Orange (3-day) is a good route,
too. About 5-6 dollars for less than one pound, guaranteed three day
delivery, and you have to sign for it. Another nice thing is if you
trade for cash, you can send COD with them, I believe.

$4.00 for postage is idiotic. I've sent Magic cards to people
before via US mail. I put the card(s) in a hard plastic sleeve,
put that in a good envelope, and sent it. ;) If it gets lost,
tough shit. If it was a Moxen or somehting, then yeah, I'd
try to make sure it would get there, but other than that...

Both of the deals I'm working on involve three or more rares (one is
for a Nerps!).

The Return Receipt also isn't so much whether the card got lost, but
to remove uncomfortable situations over the person _saying_ the card
was lost.

Yeah, I was already planning to have any cards I send out in their own
little plastic card condoms (afterall I practice safe gaming :o) .

I wouldn't go out of your way to purchase card condoms just for that
purpose. A zip-lock baggie could work just as well.

Man, am I pissed.

Spent the whole evening after work driving to the three (yep, count
em three) different hobby stores in the Dayton area, and not one had
the SRCCG. One of them never heard of it!

Man, this town is lame. It's not like Dayton is in BFE.

Sorry to rant, just made me mad, because I want this game!

I am going to sulk now... and check out the mail order links Loki
sent me. (Thanks, Lokster.)

Null persp, also get with Lady J. she seemed to track down someone to
mail order from and it sounded like a good deal.

Also, I haven't checked, but is the SRTCG listed on FASA's order form?
I've ordered a few books directly from them in the past and the turn
around time was really good.

Let me know if you need another glance through my Needs/Trades. I'll

Feeling exceedingly ripped off - the starter I bought today only had two
rares. :( However, the boosters all had four uncommons so that cheered
me up. :)

I'm tempted to make a decker.rigger deck. When I was opening all my
boosters today the last three rares I got were, in order, FastJack,
Dodger, and Fairlight Excalibur.

I think it's fate or something. :)

Bull had Dodger and a Fairlight right after each other in his first
deck. He said the same thing.

I now have Fastjack, a Fairlight and a Fuchi 6 but they're for my
complete set and in safely tucked in a binder. Dodger is one of the
rares I'm trading WindDancer for.

Yup. Nothing gets palyed with until I have a duplicated. :)

Well, that's my plan... I don't know how long I'll be able to stick to
it though.

A couple of others rounds here have bought cards too, so at least I'll
have someone to play with. :)

Okay, what do we do about swapping cards pof different value? Do we just
use the ratio from the boosters: ie. one rare = 4 uncommons = 10
commons?

I've been going with 1 rare = 2 uncommon = 3 commons.

'Course I haven't been trading alot of commons. I believe others had
said 6 commons to a rare. So maybe 1 rare = 3 uncommon = 6 commons
might be a better formula.

Anyone with more experience on this?

It's been my experience that it's almost always better to wait for a price
guide in Scrye or Inquest, or what have you.
That way you have a fairly impartial guide to base value on.

However, If there's a card I particularly like, or enjoy then I trade for it
on it's personal merits, rather than any pricing/value scheme.

Ack. that means a) we have to wait and I wanna trade NOW DAMMIT! :) and
b) we all have to have handy copies of scrye or inquest and I personally
would rather spend that money on more cards and c) it adds a whole new
level of mathematical complexity to the trade process.

It's probably going to be helpful to put the name/originator of a
given Needs or Wants list in the subject line or at a minimum at the
top of a quote like at the top of this message. (i.e. -- Wind Dancer
wrote:)

We now have four of five such lists floating around and there's really
nothing to show who's being repsonded to here except I remember this
subject line being Lady J.'s.

Lady Jester,

I was just knowticing that you have had a pretty even spread....
But What Is confusing me, well, is I bought all my cards from the same box
<I checked>, and have two starter packs, and yet. I ended up with 4's and
3's in my uncommens... and even a double in my Rare <Traded to Loki>.


Has anyone else had this problem....?

The numbers I have found are:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

When I was first looking at starting this list, a few of you extended
an offer to help in whatever way you could Well, here I am with a call
to arms.

We're seeing the number of list members approach a decent level
(double digits, anyways). I've also posted an anouncement about the
list on a few RPG and TCG newsgroups, so we may see a few new faces
show up from that.

Anyways, I'm putting together a page at my site for the SRTCG and
namely the mailing list. This will also be the home for our FAQ,
except that there is no FAQ in existence yet.

A couple of times now I've sat down to start on a fledgling FAQ of one
sort or another but nothing is coming of it. This is mainly due to one
thing...TIME...I don't have enough of it.

I'm able to spend alot of time online and accessing email because I
have direct T1 access during the 8-hour shift I'm at work. This is
also where I've been trying to get the FAQ started, but it's hard to
keep a constant line of thought going in between tech support calls
(you may have also noticed some of this is missed spelling and grammar
errors in my posts. :o)

Outside of work I'm lucky to grab a half hour or more at my personal
computer. A wife, a baby and a regular S/R game suck up most of what's
left of my time.

Enough rambling, what I want to ask is if someone(s) would like to
help put together the basics of our FAQ. I've been trying to resist
the urge to just cut and paste, or otherwise canabalize, the ShadowRN
FAQ. Maybe we can kick around the basics of what should go into ours,
then if some kind soul could mold and shape that into a basic
structure I could put the finishing touches to it when I get it posted.

I could still get around to it myself, but it may take a while. :o)

Thanx guys!

I personally like themed objectives and challenges. For example:

* Robo-plant revolt is great when you stack up on electrical
challenges. I love watching someone have to deal with the same sentry
gun three times over. Really liquidates a runner team. Also, that
Maglock is a btich to get past already, just wait to you roll that 5+
and have to face the bugger again.

* Fort Knox is great if you stack up on personnel challenges. That
+0/+3 is a nice jump on your pumpable personnel, especially the Mage
Strike Force with pumpable armor. :o)

* There's a couple of objectives that give a +2/+2 to awakened
challenges or state awakened challenges cannot be sleazed. Now those
ghouls, manticores or hunting gargoyles are even nastier to watch come
up.

Trick is just knowing your objectives and planning your challenges so
you'll see a number come out to take advantage of the bonuses.

It does appear that though I have precious few cards, I happen to have
one which most people happen to need. What I need is either Prime
Runners or a few good Uncommon mages, as I have many spells, but not a
single Mage runner.
When I buy more of this dangerous and Deadly addictive subscance, I will
have more on the "trading table" so to speak., but for now it is just a
single card.
Knock-Knock. (Special)
I also might be persuaded to trade my Runners on Retainer, All or
Nothing, and Room 5B78. (though, I confess, I really like the last one)
As I'm a player, *not* a collector, I don't have a need list, but rares
or cool uncommons could get me to trade rares, and I'll post *all* my
Uncommons when sending mail is easier.

Cool!

I've deputized Lady Jestyr as Asst. Fearless Leader of this list.
She's said that she'd help head up the FAQ project, so if you could
work in conjunction with her that'd be snazzy. :o)

Comments, suggestions and so forth on what you guys feel needs to be

Because this just came earlier tonight (this morning ?), I think
that anytime anyone posts a have/want list they must include their name
in the subject line. Failure to do so should result in a good thwapping
at least.
I am going to peruse all of the other list FAQ's I have to make sure
we hit everything. If we're going to do it, let's do it right. :)

I don't think that is necessary, is it? In any trade, just come to
something that both parties agree to. If there is a rare card that I
want real bad, I might be willing to give 5 or 6 uncommons for it,
for example. Depends on the situation, IMHO.

OK

1. Pay 3 Nuyen
2. Turn Archie McDeven
3. Turn any unturned runner. The idea here is to stop your opponent fr=

a runner.
4. I don't have the card so I don't know if it is till the end of the tur=

permanently. But I would assume end of turn.


Hope this helps.

We get ugly. Welcome to the cutthroat underside of the CCG hobby.
Hopefully since the foundation for this list is from ShadowRN we'll be a
lot more amiable about it.
I'm only buying my starters and packs in installments so it'll be
awhile before I jump into to wheeling and dealing for cards. At this time
I still have an idealistic hope of getting a full set (although promo
cards will probably be beyond me since I didn't have the time or cash for

Yeah, commons eventually are just given away since packs will be
bought for rares with some nice uncommons being considered a bonus.
Limited edition commons will have a slight value if the series sells out
fast. Not much though.

Impartial? Anyway, you start to get a better of what cards are good
to play with that way since you can find out which cards are in higher
demand.

Supply and demand, supply and demand. And it all can shift fast.

You haven't even got to the fine art of haggling. That part is a
hobby unto itself. That's what starts to turn some people off the CCG's.
To do one hobby well you have to be good at several things.

11, 3, and 1 is what I'm used to from Magic the Addiction. You'll
find that the machine that auto sort these things start out rough and get
a better mix and steady rarity numbers as they get used to packaging it.
As with mass production and machine sorting, errors will occasionally
creep up. Oh how I remember my one starter of Ice age with 12 rare cards
in it. Sometimes Life is good. B>]#

Hi ShadowRun fans...
I was hoping that some of you gurus out there could give me yer versions
of how "Locations" should be handled, specifically "The Iron Lung".

Main question:

Do runners have to "tap" to use a location and The Iron Lung
Specifically? Cuz if they don't this is a powerhouse Location card then.

Thanks for yer help,

Subject: Re: Deck Designs

I've put together the first (what I though was...) obvious try which
was a big-money deck. Put in 4 Thrash, 4 Glitz (who cost 3 and 4 nuyen,
respectively) and each have Fame-1. Their only purpose is to come out
and raise your per-turn nuyen take. Then, I threw in 4 Kromagnus - 6/7
troll rocker who can be turned for 1 nuyen. Kromagnus is big enough to
go on runs (and suck up 6 points of damage) and able to turn and get
money when that's appropriate. Then, I tossed in 3 Moonlightings (quick
nuyen).

This base does a really good job of getting the nuyen flowing. Then, I picked
30 of the toughest, most obnoxious objectives (like Maglocks, Mine Field,
Booby Trap, and pumpable <because we have money with this deck!> challenges
like Lone Star patrol and Security Guards).

At this point, I'm up to 45 cards. The final 15 were:

8 street sams (2 Hatchetmen plus 6 big 6/7 <A1> guys)
4 Ajax (rigger)
3 crawler patrol drones

The sam sams are the meat of the running teams. They go it and blow stuff
up - it's that simple. And their natural armor and large bodies suck up
enough damage. The key is to get enough runners on the table to pound through
all three opponent challenges in one swoop so they can't replace the challenges
or block with their own runners.

When I first started opening boosters, I laughed at Ajax. "Common worthless
card," I thought. Then, (in an earlier version of this deck), I discovered
the serious need for recon, demolitions and technical skills/abilities to
avoid Booby Traps, see Mine Fields, and sleaze Maglocks. (All common and
very deadly or annoying Challenges.) Ajax has BOTH demolitions and technical.
Throw in the crawler patrol drones to recon (and you've got the nuyen to pay
2 Nuyen/tern to recon), and you're in Fat City. This deck plays /really/ well.

Oh, and this is all done with /commons/. (!!) Since (like everyone else) I'm
still working on collecting a set, first and foremost, I didn't want
to damage any of the rares or uncommons I need for trading right now. The only
uncommon/rare card that I'd definitely add to this deck that I can think of
offhand is False Mentor (which is pretty much a must for ANY deck).

Problems with the deck: No stealth. No magic. So, if your opponent knows
what you're playing, challenges can be chosen so that there's no
sleazing for you. However, the inability to sleaze has not been a problem
so far.

It's still early, but in 8 games, this deck hasn't been beaten and it hasn't
been close. I'm really hoping that the "quick-money" style of deck isn't
the only way to go.

Has anyone else been able to experiment yet?

Yes, When a runner "Visits" a Location, they must Turn. Some Locations do
not require a runner to visit, but these are like the Ork, Dwarf, and Elf
places, and the Warehouse...

I think we need to find out if it is itribe that has the ban on
selling stuff, or if it just imposed by the fearless leaders on ShadowRN
and Nerps when the lists were set up.
I think that if it is allowed, all inquiries to someone's "for sale
list" should be done in private mail. Personally, I don't want to be
subjected to a bidding war on the list.
These kinds of posting should, also, have the person's name in the
subject line to avoid confusion similar to the haves/wants postings.

In all honesty, I'd prefer to see only trades done on the list. Posting
something saying 'I have some cards I want to sell, please email for
list.' However, I could deal with.

I would agree with this idea. I think trades are okay as long as
the nitty-gritty details are handled in private. As for selling, I
would prefer to not have it, or at most a post like Dvixen suggests.
This keeps it more of a discussion list and not a "money making
opportunity" and keeps the people who have no interest in the game, just
the money, out.

Thank you for your reply...now your idea seems practical and is in sync
with "Jyhad" which is obviously a forebearer of this game. But... on
page #54 under locations it says , "...some locations *may* require you
to turn a runner in order to use that location..."

Now The Iron Lung card does *not* specifically say that you must
turn/tap a runner to use it.

Also lower down the same page <#54> , it goes on to say, "...UNless
otherwise stated, Locations and Contacts can be used any number of
times..."

Which further implies that a single runner can access the IRON LUNG
multiple times in a single turn...

Do we have a NetRep's view of this card yet?

Ok, I looked and couldn;t actually find anything in the rulebook (most
annoying, but then, what do you want out of a tiny little StarterDeck
Rulebook?).

However, I (As well as the Listowner, Loki, and Dvixen, and Caric (You here
yet Caric?)) got to Demo the game at Gen Con with some official FASA reps,
and we were told that unless otherwise stated, you need to visit a location
with a runner, and visiting will Turn (tap:)) the runner.

No, but you can visit it with multiple runners. usually I get THUMPed by
this card, though. But i do it anyways...;]

Loki isn;t Official (yet), but He's probably as close as we get. However,
hopefully we'll be able to talk either Mike "Skuzzy" Nielson (the card
designer) or FASAMike Mulvhill (The Shadowrun Line Developer) into joining
the list eventually.

hey Loki? you emntioned this list to FASAMike yet? If not, I'll mail him
and let him know we have this list set up. It has a much lower traffic
volume (At the moment) than Shadowrn... maybe we can get him on here, at
least...:]

I'd prefer to see the haves/wants, then to see it taken private as
soon as possible. It takes up a lot of emails, not really bandwidth
since the posts are relatively small, but it's still a pain to
have to mulch through all of it.

And.. heh.. 3-4 dollars for a stinking card that's been out for a
week? Yech, I now remember why I hate card games. ;) Except
this one, of course!

Unless it says on the card that he has a lower essence, than no.
Othwerwise, how would someone who doesn;t have a Chipjack 2 know what the
essence loss was?

Yes they do. Only Hatchetman 2057 is immune to teh Essance Limit, and

The Chipjack 2 essence loss is only 2. It would make "sense" to me that
Uncle Joe suffers from essence loss, since he has cyberware. However, I
tend to agree with Bull and follow that if it doesn't say it on the card,
it ain't happenin'. That is, unless FASA comes out with an errata.

I feel that's the best way too do things. I think an outright 'sale' of
cards on the list is rather pathetic, especially since the card game has
only been out a week and the market is still damn close to virginal.
Who would buy a card for cash this early, when the stores are still full of
boosters and starters, and everyone is trading? Oh yes, cash cows..

Hmmmmm....I noticed the rule book was not too clear on this fact
either...But if the NetRep or soon to be NetRep has ruled that a runner
must turn to use a given location then I guess that is the way to play.

I, too, agree that this would be the best way to do it. Because, while the
market is still "virginal," I've already picked up 4 boxes of boosters and
am only 18 cards short of a full set. I would rather just buy the cards I'm
missing. Unfortunately, I don't have much experience buying or trading over
the net with private parties and still feel kind of uncomfortable doing so.

Interesting side note... the card list on FASA's home page lists
Extraction, Gang War, Harlequin's Game, Haunted Highrise, Milk Run, Mob
War!, Protect and Defend, Robo-plant Revolt, and Operation Cottonmouth as
Common cards. You would think after 4 boxes of boosters we'd be able to get
at least one of each of these cards. Didn't happen. So, is this a misprint
of the rarity?

No. It's just weird card cutting and distribution mechanics. Many people
have gotten multiple copies of these cards and others have gotten zip.
So, they're definitely common, just allocated strangely across booster
and starter boxes.

I feel that the chance of getting 3 armor peircing damage would keep
me from using this card at all unless I the game depended on me
getting some card out in play. I do not have the card Shadowland but
from what the spoiler says below.

"Matrix. Hermit Deckers may visit this location. Roll D6 for each
visiting Runner. On 4-6, place an Info token on the Runner. This token
may be used during a shadowrun when this Runner is present. To use the
Info token, roll D6; on 4+, the shadowrunning player may look at the
next Challenge before choosing whether or not to continue the run."

Form what the rules (page 54. last part under USE CARDS before PLAY
SPECIAL CARDS) say and what this card says you could abuse this card
by having your deckers visit 30 times and gain, lets say 15 info
tokens to use each. This is the card I would ask the Netrep's view on.
Maybe the spoiler missed something that is on the card, can anyone
verify for me that the above text is on the card?

No, but my friends and I have noticed some large sorting problems...
i.e., two boosters out of the same box will have almost the exact
same cards sometimes (esp. if they were right next to each other, or
in a stack). The rares tend to be different, but many time's I'll
see the exact same commons/uncommons in boosters or starters that
came from the same box.. For this reason, I'm going to hold off on
buying a full box mailorder (though the prices are nice).

I think this may be an extension of the sorting problems I mentioned
earlier... between myself and a few friends we've bought about 1 box
of starters, and about a dozen boosters, and have seen each of these
cards at least once, and with the exception of Harlequin, at least
twice.

This is my feeling as well, and as Fearless Leader that's what will
stick. Let's make sure something gets in the FAQ on this. A post
saying you have cards to sell and a request to be contacted in private
email will be allowed at a minimum, but outright sales on the list
won't be tolerated.

Trading and game discussion is what we're here for.

I guess I opened a can of worms on this.

I agree with my friend that we didn't want to sell this early, but noting
from the newsgroup and this list, distribution was/is the one pathetic. I
just wanted to get to everyone so that everyone has the cards they needed.
My public service to the community; and for fun & profit. :)

Some my said 'trading' doesn't belong here. But, where can one go, where
you can get the diehards. Also, I would like to point out, I still know
this list is still new, but eventually, you might think of creating a few
more lists. For example, L5R (boo/hiss) has several lists:

1) info (game mechanics & discusion)
2) trade (trade and forsale)
3) story (story)
4) game (playing L5R on the net between 2 or more people)

For those concerned, I have sent a private mail to Mr. Eng advising
him that open card sales is discouraged on the SRCARD mailing list,
and that this point has further been added/stated in our FAQ.

Thanx for all the input. That's what's gonna help shape the FAQ and
mold this list into what we want from it.

My understanding is that runners like Uncle Joe (w/ chipjack) or
Ravage (w/ Wired Reflexes) get these for free. Nothing states on the
card that they have a reduce essence.

> Also, do cyborgs still have an Essence limit?

Yes, except for Hatchetman 2057, his card states he ignores essence
cost and limb limitiations for cyberware.

The purpose of the list is for trading and game discussion.

If posting a have/want list you must include your name in the subject.
(This will avoid major confusion for all involved.)

Outright sales of cards will not be tolerated. A person can post that

Anything else so far? Did I get these three correctly?

Yes, runners designated to visit a location are turned during the
Legwork phase to do so. This leaves them inelligible for other
actions, especially Shadowruns.

As an interesting side note, The IRon Lung is a bar from the games
Skuzzy's group plays. That's why Macabre, a character from one of his
player's, gets a bonus when visiting the Iron Lung.

The key is locations that a runner "visits." If a runner visits a
location, he is turned to do so. Other locations like Tir Tairngire or
Caves of Halferville are not visited and thus no runner is designated
or turned to use it.

This is a question that has perplexed me. The rules say that you can onl=

cyber on a runner that does not cost more than 6 essence points. However=
there
is nothing on the cards eg Uncle Joe to say what the essence level of the
runner is. Is this intentional or an oversight? Does anybody know?

I assume then that The Warehouse does not require a runner to be turned?

Thanks, Drekhead. Mucho appreciated.

(Don't know that you needed to send them to the list, though. :)

Also, as the newly-appointed Assistant Fearless Leader of the list, I
thought I'd take it upon myself to start putting together a homepage for

Any of you who have Shadowrun or SRTCG-related pages, let me know its
address, since I'll put together a little Member Pages Directory.

Also, I've decided that I will accept SRTCG-related pages on the
Shadowrun Webring. If enough of them spring up I will devolve a new
webring to handle it; in the meantime they are welcome on the Shadowrun
Webring.

It's a carry over from the Shadowrun RPG. The basics are like this:
Everyone has an Essence of six (unless stated otherwise). Cyberware
takes away from, and in turn lowers, a runner's Essence. Generally,
once you have depleted your Essence, and gone negative...you're dead.
However, there are those that have dared to push this threshold to
it's limits, and even step over it into the negatives. This is the
area of Cybermancy from the RPG, the creation of cyberzombies. In the
SRTCG they're called Cyborgs, the special abilities og Skrwaaaaaak and
Hatchetman 2057 are the best examples.

There are varied arguments from the RPG as to the nature of Essence.
Some say Essence is a measure of how "human" you are, what's left to
seperate the man from the machine. Others say it's your soul. Still
others will simply say it's a game mechanic to counteract munchkins.
:o)

BTW has anyone noted there's a Cyberpsychosis special? That's gotta
hurt the devout that crusade against there being Cyberpsychosis in S/R.

Can I assume you don't need me to send you my page info?

If I do, it's in my sig. :o)

Exactly. It in no way states that a runner visits the location, only
that you place and deploy gear with the card. (Basically saves you
from having to discard useful stuff.)

I'm certain that's the ruling. However, I've shot a question off to
FASA to see if we can get official feedback and get it in their FAQ as
well. I'll post what they send me when I get it.

That's what we're here for. :o)

Actually, it's only 2 armor piercing damage which isn't enough to kill
most runners and the damage can be healed. Also, Macabre gets a bonus
of +1 to die rolls at the Iron Lung (great combo for getting cards in
your hand.)

That's exactly how the card reads.

That would take 30 legwork phases for a single decker, 15 for two
deckers, 10 for three deckers, and so on. During this time your
deckers have not been able to do anything else like recon.

Now, it also says "This token may be used during a shadowrun when this
Runner is present. " Which means the decker(s) must actually be with
your team on a Shadworun. Not a good way to keep those deckers alive
as they're now able to fall victim to Challenges and suffer damage.
They're not the heartiest lot of runners in your deck.

You're not limited to only deckers visiting Shadowland (it's jsut that
hermit deckers may also visit), but anyone visiting the location isn't
able to do anything else that turn.

So far, I haven't found the card to be a game breaker.

Call me stupid [shut up the lot of you!] but I haven't really been able
to find the purpose of deckers... what's the best way of utilising
deckers?
