Arghhhh!! I don't have my list membership set to send me copies of a
message, so I don't know if I sent this to the list or not so
here is what might be a dublicate post:

Here is a challenge for those of you whom play the SRTCG a bit too much:

Given the following conditions how many challenges can be sleazed (ie
gotten by without taking any damage, lossing any runners or setting off
the alarm):

1. Maximum of 6 runners (its the rules)
2. No equipment (to keep it easy)
3. You have 6 nuyen to spend this turn for upkeep and what ever
runner powers you choose to use.
4. You need to have a 100% chance of getting by the challenge for it
to count as a sleazable challenge.
5. The run is against Harlequin's Game, so there will be no specials
played during the run.

(ie Ajax goes on a run by himself and runs into a Minefield, he would
count this as sleazable since he can't possibly take any damage from it)

Note: Custom System, Double Jeopardy, Elite Security Mage, Integrated
Control Center, Security Consultant and Security Decker do not count
towards your total. This is because they either do nothing by
themselves, are treated as bluffs or can take out a runner before
you have a chance to sleaze it. I really want more of those mages... :)

That leaves 59 possible challenges (there are 65 challenges in all).

I have a runner team that can successfully sleaze 41 of those 59,
while following those rules. And yes they would be able to take
the Objective 100% of the time as well (barring that they don't
run into the 18 that would mess them up).

And please include the list of runners and the usage of your nuyen
(if you use some of the nuyen).
