I don't agree. I believe Renraku would fall in the category of Motion
Dectors, Red Alert and other cards that prevent sleazing. We've heard
back from FASA (and it's in the Game Q&A) that cards that state
Challenges can not be sleazed are referring to the Skill Requirement
for sleazing. Card text (such as Maglocks, Gut Check, Feeding Ghouls,
...) that state another way to sleaze the card are not encompassed in
this statement. 2nd Printing will probably see this wording clarified.
So I don't think your Renraku roll will end a shadowrun simply by the
presence of a Maglock. The opponent will still get to guess his number
regardless.
