A couple comments.

a) I like it. A lot. It definitely changes the 'feel' of
shadowrunning, and captures what a Vision Quest should be pretty well.

b) Only one Challenge, or only one Challenge in each player's Objective
stack? No difference, except in multi-player.

c) Way low Reputation. Which is pretty good, since you have to be
running the right deck to even contemplate it, but, if done as a Vision
Quest (an individual, not a team effort) you'd have on average two, and
at best 4 (before Moment of Clarity/Outstanding Performance) points, or
four to eight Reputation gained. That seems about right, except as a
Mage player I'd rather gain Rep quicker (only so long before the
Riots!), which means other Objectives look tastier. Some alternative
compensation seems in line.

d) There already is a Vision Quest in AEX, but that's all right. I'd
rather incorporate this one (in some form) and rename the existing card.
