Hi all - i'm new here, and to the game. I've a few questions which i hope
haven't been answered elsewhere or elsewhen recently.

I'm a little confused by the issue of allies and drones. If my mage goes
on a run with an ally, and meets a Mine Field, does the ally count as a
runner? And if not (as i suspect) can it take damage on behalf of the mage
controlling it?

Regarding pumping - is there any limit to how much a challenge can be
pumped? Last night we were playing and my friend was able to pump his mage
strike force 5 times, making it 16/16 A6!! also - when should he announce
he is going to pump - ie can he wait for me to assign damage before he
decides to pump, and can he then pump in increments while seeing what i do
with the dmage, or does it have to all be at once.

Finally - the max nimber of runners on a run is 6 - can they still be
supported by indirect fire, say from an FN HAR or 2?

Thanks

Andrew.
