Sorry, I didn't get the Card of the Week out yesterday (Sunday) as I
try to do. My daughter has been fighting the flu for the last four
days, and yesterday she decided to reward daddy's care with a 24-hour
version of it. ;o)

Anyways, without further ado..

Corporate Secretary
Type: Contact
Rarity: Common
Description: 0¥. Human. May be used once per turn. 3¥: Roll D6. 1-2:
No effect. 3-5: You may look at one Challenge of your choice on any
Objective in play. 6: You've managed to get the Corporate Secretary
fired! Trash Corporate Secretary.

How many of you use her? How do you use her?

I've talked to people that consider Corp Sec a waste of nu yen, when
you can put a Decker in your deck that can Recon, Browse, or use
Shadowland tokens. I've heard from others that swear by her (even in a
Decker deck), as she's not vulnerable to Riots, Drive-By, Wanted,
Z-Zone and Tempest as wimpy bodied deckers would be.

Compare her further to a Rigger's Crawler Patrol Drone or Microskimmer.

Me personally? After rolling a 6 and losing her three different times
when I really needed her, I pulled Corp Sec out of my deck in favor of
Kracker Jack for Recon, even though I don't have a single piece of
matrix gear in there.

I'd just like to see what side of the fence the rest of you fall on.
Waste or Valuable Tool?
