Hi Folks!

How are you playing this card? A Friend of mine (Hi Bernhard) uses this
card with great effect with loads of zero-cost gear (Maglock Passkey,
Streetline Special). It says on the card:

1Y: Turn a runner to visiting runner may "sell" a gear card to Leo to
add D6-3Y to owner´s credstick (minimum of 1Y). Place sold cards under
Leo´s Pawn Shop. Visiting Runners may purchase Gear at Leo´s Pawn Shop
by paying the original deploymnt cost of the pawned gear card.

The question is now: Can more then one gear card be sold at a time? In
this case a runner could sell let´s say ten zero-cost gears and the
next runner could buy them at no cost. You would only hev to pay 2Y for
the two vbisiting runners. This seems overpowered as you could earn 3 -
5 Y (depends on your luck) at the cost of two turned runners per round.

Or: You can sell only one gear at a time, but the same runner can get
it back. Played like this it comes down, that if you roll a five you
will earn 1Y or if you roll a six you will earn 2Y. This is also very
powerfull because you give each of your runners a gear with zero costs
and let them go all to Leo´s if you don´t want to make a run this turn.
If you´re lucky with the rolls you can make pretty much money

Or: You can only sell one gear at a time and you have to turn another
runner to buy the gear back from Leo´s. In this case you earn money only
if you roll a six.

What´s your opinion on this matter?

Actually we play it in the second way I described

Greetings,
Michael
