[Wondering if that makes her deck munchy... 4 counterspells, 4 power
sinks, 4 hydroblasts, a few arcane denials, 4 disenchants, 4
reprisals... :) Mine's the "Oh no you don't" deck.]

Quote when ever my buddy mentions that he wants to use his blue deck:
"But Shane, we want to actually PLAY cards too...."

On a more SR related point, does anyone know how the overall game is
going to be played? You know is it going to be something like NetRunner
(Corp vs. Decker) with success being determined by the things you
accomplish, or what ever...

If I recall correctly...You are a fixer or was it a Johnson [I cannot
recall]..and you acquire items [read:
weapons,equipment, and artifacts] hire runners [from all of the
catagories]..attach items to the runners [read:
weapons,foci,vehicles,ect.]..and send them off on a
run..OF course my info may be a bit dated as a friend of mine was
doing some of the play testing..and the last I heard about it was
months ago...
I have been fortunate so far I have not been sucked into any CCGs..I
have a horrible disease..I'm a collector...THis one may be my undoing
though...My only salvation will be if they sell the cards as an
entire set..then I can buy them and put them away..

The same here, I avoided CCGs like the plague until I heard about the
potential for a SR CCG and kind of liked the idea. And then I got sucked
into Blood Wars CCG (but then the Booksale store was selling 100 card
starter packs for 99p, and 10 booster packs for 99p also :)
