I have had several questions arise with the group that I play with. Please
bear with me if they are simply answered questions. We have one player
that questions absolutely everything.

1) Can Dr. Apocalypse use a spell and his gunnery in a turn?
2) If you give a mage a gyromount can he use his spellcasting and the
weapon in the same turn?
3) If you use the program steamroller, do you trigger the alarm?
4) Does a decker use the amount of programs in a turn equal to his decking?
5) Can a decker attack another decker without an attack program? Without a
deck?
6) Change of plans states you may choose the objective of that
shadowrun....I have a player who makes up objectives that are
impossible(and don't exist in the objectives) and states he can do so due
to the wording of the card. Is this true?
7) Do you have to turn a runner to use their special ability? Example, Ice
Queen has Recon, and also has the special ability to foce taget opponent to
lose 1. Can you use both since they are her special power? Does the same
rules apply to The Wiz Kid Decker(example, can you use the recon power and
use the browze program?)
8) When you use runners on retainer, do you use your shadowrunners or just
their stats? As in can you use your runners stats, but they don't actually
take damage?
9) When Instant Goblinization is used, does the character lose all of their
gear? Specifically matrix, magic?
10) Ally Spirit states it can avoid all damage taken from one source. Can
you avoid the damage of Guardian Dracoform with Ally Spirit?, how about
something like Elite Security Guards(Example, someone spends quite a bit to
pump it up, then you use Ally Spirit to avoid the damage)
11) When in combat with another decker, do you just compair the decking
abilities? And whoever loses dies? Can two deckers tag team one decker?
If so then how is the combat resolved, like normal?

Thanks for the help
