>Sooo... does that mean you have to turn the runner when you turn all the
other runners, or can you bring him in with his program at any time? IE:
Lets say I have 2 Moles, 1 with Sleaze and another with Steamroller and both
deckers are in the safehouse. Can I send 5 runners on the run and leave the
deckers home, then wait to see what program I'm going to want to use, or do
I have to say "Ok, the one with the Steamroller is going to assist" as I'm
declaring the run?

You must declare it at the beginning, just like a runner who is actually
going on a run. You can say "Okay, I'll send three Skwaaaaaark!s, and one
Static on the run (So I can use his Technical skill), and Ceaser through the
Matrix (So I can use his Stemroller without fear of damage).

>Both indirect and the decker description say to turn to do something that
effects the shadow running team, but no where does it say when you can do
it. I would think you could declare assisting runners at any time during
the run (similar to blowing a Rapier or turning Red Widow).
