Subject: Merc Animosity Deck (Want Comments)
Date: Thu, 21 May 1998 09:19:31 -0700
Hi, All.

The following is a deck that I whipped up last night called my "Merc
Animosity Deck." This deck is made for a multiplayer game of at least 3 or
more. The reason I say this is that when our group plays with about 4 (on
average) it seems that time is plentiful to get these big guys out. This
deck is pretty weak on gear, but with an emphasis on Challenges and
Runners. My goal (not only to win or do well) is to inconvenience a Merc
Deck in play.


Here it is...any comments are welcome.

Runners: (14)

2x Skwaaaaaark!
2x Knuckles
1x Grizzly
1x Tin Man
3x Glitz
3x Thrash
2x Jade

Gear: (9)

1x Doc Wagon Platinum
1x Heavy Armor (Full)
1x Dermal Plating
1x Panther Assault Cannon
2x Ares Predators
1x Armor-Piercing Ammo
1x Lucky Wabbit's Foot
1x Wired Reflexes

Objectives: (7)

1x Cleanse The Hive
1x Dragon Hunt
1x Room 5B78
1x Dunkelzahn's Black Book
1x Doomsday Device (thinking about switching out with Sucker Run...just to
irritate people)
2x Fusion Run

Locations: (2)

2x The Iron Lung

Contacts: (6)

1x Mr. Black
2x Mr. Johnson
1x Shady Manager (to protect what's mine!)
1x Elven Hitman (to kill other Shady Managers)
1x Squatter

Challenges: (20)

1x Chomps 2000
2x Minefield
1x Incubus
1x Guardian Dracoform
2x Maglocks
2x Hunting Gargoyles
2x Razorhead Turf
3x Manticore
1x Time Delayed Bomb
1x Toxic Spirit
1x Yakuza Assassin
1x Guardian Fire Elemental
2x Mage Strike Force

Specials: (9)

1x Cyber-Psychosis
1x Nerps!
1x Rampaging Mutant
2x Even Steven
2x Wanted!
2x Infected Chrome
(Might add Moonlighting later, but it really depends if my goal is keeping
the ol' card count lower)

Stingers: (7)

1x All Or Nothing
4x Luck 'O' The Irish
2x Deja Vu
(Might sub out a couple LOTI's with a Reinforcements or No Way
Out....leaning also toward maybe a couple of Change Of Plans....)


Total card count is 74 (I think...I'm tired and don't count very well....)
Another focus is the Jade / Infected Chrome combo to kill off any runners
(besides mine) that might be using Cyberware (which with some of the Mercs
I believe a common one is Muscle Replacement...)

Anyway, any suggestions, feel free! I had some good suggestions about
Better Offer and Poor Craftsmanship, but I really like my Infected Chromes!
;-)

Thanks,

Jon
