This is Fuchi Industries, the promo-only card, right?
I'm quickly learning how good these promos are! Can't wait til I get my
hands on a Hatchetman 2057 for the Cyber team (skraaawk!)
Lady J, you might have to bribe me all over again...

The Gargoyles are nasty (they're, what, 10/11 after the Hunt?) but the
Basilisk is where it's at. Given that the game recycles itself (in
enough time) fragging's where it's at.
Just waiting for "Delta Clinic: Trash runner to bring fragged runner
back into the game"....

At which point I'd lob on all the "useless" Challenges I could :P Gee,
normally you could sleaze right by those street scum.. looks like
they're really flesh forms, though!

May I suggest - since it's so early in the game's lifetime - we post a
description of the card - especially on these rares?
