I disagree. I play against a fellow who plays lots of Recon and
skilled runners....He never attempts a run until he know he can
sleaze everything. As such, cards that set off the alarm are very
valuable to me. Nets, Maglocks, etc. My Mage Security Team may
kick butt, but it's worthless unless he triggers the alarm (Which is
why I play with all 4 GAQs as well.)

Now, given that he has Recon, He can see FoG coming, and pulls out
after revealing it. But that delays him an extra round....which
means I have another stab at the Objective.

As for your idea of a making it a Stinger, yes, that's fine. But FoG
isn't a worthless card as it is.
