My thoughts are this. While I think that making corp
characters might be a good way to run a group, I think you
need to remember why corps hire Shadowrunners to begin
with. Deniability. They wouldn't send their own troops into
another corps back yard, that's what they hire runners for, so
that they are not tied to the action at all. There may be many
other ways to run corp players though.
