I think in my previous message (the one you responded to) addressed that, I
suppose there is the possibility of players choosing to play the card in
that fashion, and why a player might choose to do that....however, it also
seems that, as I stuck in my last reply, that if something goes in place of
a Shadowrun, which only takes place in the Shadowrun phase, then it seems
logical that the action must take place in the same phase.

Again, ultimately it doesn't matter, because then the player forfeits
his/her Shadowrun phase for that turn anyway, and with the exception of
spending money on extra gear in your hand (money that the Deckers got from
Fuchi, let's say...) then there's really no reason to continue on with the
Legwork Phase (Hawkwind doesn't need to heal anyone...no Deckers get hurt @
Fuchi....)

Cheers,

Jon
