The way I read it, you can use NERPS! to duplicate any gear card in
play.
Now how I understand it, the 3¥ deployment cost is just to bring NERPS
out and make it a copy of a gear card. Once NERPS! is a copy of the
Bulldog Van, you treat it as an "exact duplicate of that card" meaning
you have to pay pay the 4¥ deployment cost of the Bulldog if you want
to give it to a Runner.
I just can't see NERPS! being a cheap way for me to give Tinkerbell
another Automated Patrol Vehicle (6¥) for only 3¥.
