Only a 1 in 3?
Nets
Type: Challenge
Description: (Barrier)
Notes: Roll D6 for each Runner present. 1-2: No effect. 3+: Runners
without Athletics return to Safehouse unturned. 5+: Runners with
Athletics return to Safehouse unturned. If Nets sends any Runners to
Safehouse, the alarm is triggered. Trash after revealed.
In my understanding this means you have a 2 in 3 chance of sending
most runners (those w/o athletics), and a 1 in 3 chance of sending
home those runners with athletics. Plus if you send even one home, the
alarm is now going off.
Add in a Loaded Dice or a Deja Vu and you have just that much more
control over which Runner might be going home.
