I don't know all the answers but I'll try....


>Here it is, the weekly set of questions which came up during the week end :
>
>1) When two runners turn to swap gear, can way swap any amount of gear they
own ?
>Can they swap a turned piece of gear (as a Black Hammer for instance) ?

If he can use the gear it can be moved to him(the runner) unless
specifically stated otherwise... (eg cyberware)

>
>2) The Highway Showdown challenge says : "(...) each runner present takes 4
damage."
>Let's picture that Roadrash is shadowrunning with an activated Hunter Drone
and can't
>sleaze the challenge.
>Does only Roadrash get 4 damage ?

Yes... Roadrash is a runner present...

>Does Roadrash and the Drone both get 4 damage ?

Yes... Roadrash is a runner present...
No... The drone is not a runner present.... Its a drone.....

>Can the owner of Roadrash divide the damage between the runner and his
drone ?
>(I don't really feel at ease with the use of drones).

No!!!! This is not combat damage....

>
>3) If a mage fails to sleaze an awakened challenge with the Sleep spell,
>can he still inflict damage with his threat rating ?
>(I don't really feel at ease with the use of spells either).

Yes... (I think so but correct me if I'm wrong)

>
>4) The Ally Spirit can be trash to avoid all damage taken from one source.
>If Wishbone holding an Ally meet an Incubus, can I trash the spirit instead
>of having Wishbone trashed ?
>I would say no because this is not real damage taken, but it was not the
opinion of other players.

No... You did not take any damage.... And trashing is not damage...

>5) On the Amazonian Hunt challenge, it is written : "No awakened challenge
can be sleazed".
>Does it mean that gear like Stun gloves or Sleep Spell are useless against
awakened challenge
>revealed on this objective ?
>This would be scary...
>

Sleep is useless... Card Text : (..... , target challenge is SLEAZED.)
Stun Gloves is not... Card Text : (..... , TRASH target challenge.)
Trash and sleaze mean 2 different things (although the effect is the
same....).
