"In the news today, Saeder-Krupp declared war on Fuchi over a physicist who
was 'liberated' from S-K earlier in the week".

Yep, that'll happen. Most likely the corp will attack it's rival in more
subtle means (e.g takeovers of subsidiaries, nailing the shadow assets --
your best team just died, now what do you do? --, sending runners to nullify
the benefits of what was stolen, etc.).

Take a look through Corporate Shadowfiles sometime (but make a lot of coffee
beforehand), it'll explain a great deal of what I'm trying to say in a
prettier and longer manner.
