I like these interpretations.
My questions are-
1)Can Street Scum trash Cyberware?
2)Can Bounty Hunter be used multiple times to hunt down both of my
opponent's runners (A and B) who just ran into Chomps and had to go home?
3)Was Gut Check errata'd to Trash after revealed?
4)If my deckers run into a Booby trap while running from the safehouse, do
I get by?
