I think they should have made "Some Things Never Change" a 100% effective card.
Having to roll made it a real pain, and it only works once. Most like the team is gonna
hit a challenge and then pull out right away if your STNC works. It also has a down side
if you're using it to switch those Wake the Deads to real challenges; you're not able to
pump any of the challenges (this is also a decent defensive stratergy if you're playing
against a money deck).

I'll have to reread the card when I get home, but I thought it effected the entire
Shadowrun. Hell, if it only effects 1 challenge then it should definantly remove the roll
to see if it works. Either that or make it a zero cost card similar to a LOTI.
