Of course the following is my personal opinion

(no opinion)

just discarded. LOTI would only work on it as it
is being played. Given the shadowrun universe, goblinization is not a
reversible process (that I know of).

played on a turned runner. I don't think it can
initially be played on Ghost Who Walks. Once it is in play, assuming it
is tradable gear, it could be swapped from another player to Ghost Who
Walks.
This brings up another issue about this card however. My assumption is
it is a special card until it hits the table. If I am incorrect, then
Skwaaaaark could use it as cyberware. The way I played it in my last
game was that I still had to pay the nuyen to put the cyberware (from
Nerps) onto him.

> If no shaman is present trash free spirit. That's it. The triggering of
the alarm is an aftereffect if a shaman is not present. So, IMHO, the
only way you would be fighting it is if a shaman were on the running
team. I look at it like the eyekiller challenge in which it is
disadvantageous to have someone with stealth.

Of course I could be wrong. Any other opinions?
