Here's a revised version of a deck I put together for when friends
come over and don't happen to have a deck of their own to play with.
It consists primarily of commons with a few uncommons tossed in for
flavor.

"(Un)common Occurrences"
70 cards + 6 Obj.

RUNNERS (20)
Shasta x4
Ajax x2
Tinkerbell x2
Kromagnus x4
Glitz x4
Gore Tusk
Stomper
Red Widow
Sam the Sleuth

GEAR (10)
Katana x4
Hunter Drone x2
Crawler Patrol Drone
Bolt of Power x3

CONTACTS (3)
Bounty Hunter
Corporate Secretary
Elven Hitman

LOCATIONS (1)
The Iron Lung

STINGERS (6)
No Way Out x2
Green Apple Quicksteps x4

SPECIALS (4)
Bar Fight
Block Party x2
Cover Up

CHALLENGES (26)
Lone Star Patrol x4
Maglocks x4
Security Drone x4
Security Guards x4
Basilisk x2
Electrified Fence x2
Feeding Ghouls x2
Ambushed En Route
Gut Check
Hellish Traffic
Sentry Gun

OBJECTIVES
Ragnarock x4
Tiki Head Enigma
Harkequin's Game

** As you can see, it's primarily built as a cash and pump deck. The
extra nu yen generated also leads to some fun and games with the
Bounty Hunter and Block Party when they come up. Nothing special, but
for a deck that was primarily thrown together from my boxes of extras,
it has held it's own in more than a couple of games.

Hope this helps.
