Don't like the difference in increase between the classes; I'd
standardize it. Since Conjure is a skill, does this mean Nightshade now
has Conjure-3 (+1 skill, +1 Conjure)? Come here little Ally..

Definitely don't like this one. I'd play it in a P-Runner less deck;
play when I think I can take an Objective, and, if I don't make it, LotI
it. I could see it targetting a specific P-Runner, however, although
doubling is a little harsh (b'bye, li'l Torgo!) ..For a worse jib,
caster pays (x) yen, which target player's owner has to match.

Definitely like ther ideas, the execution's just a little off for me.

All imho and that.
