Do all Runners on a run have to be using Silencers/Silenced Weapons
during combat in order for the alarm not to be triggered? Or just one?
The reason I ask is that you can only have 4 Silencers in your deck
while you can have up to 6 on a run. It seems to me that even if you
are lucky enough to draw and play all 4, you'll still trigger the alarm or
your team will not be as strong (because of the fewer runners).
And the odds of you getting all of your runners equipped with Silencers/
Silenced Weapons is kind of low because you can only have up to 4.
There aren't *that* many silenced weapons and if you *are* determined
to use them, you'll need to pack alot of them in your deck.
So this leads me to wonder why use Silenced Weapons at all if each
of your runners must have one?
