GRNDL GRNDL GRNDL

My first crack at a deck with more than 49 cards in it, went with poker size since I liked the number and am trying to swing a balance between an all out kill deck and a slow advance build.

Using the Root as a good way to not spend my own credits on advancing anything and as a easy run server they can hit and try to trash if they'd like.

GRNDL Refinery so I can have something to advance other than agendas and a good way to not have to rely too heavily on burst econ.

Elizabeth Mills is in so I can get rid of the bad pub.

SEA Source, I don't need to explain this one.

Since you're running Government Takeover and triple The Cleaners, I think you'll definitely want three Punitive Counterstrike. I'm a die-hard Weyland player, and I find it difficult to shy away from turning the runner to a pile of ashes. Since you have two influence left, have you considered 1 Cerebral Overwriter? Maybe one Shattered Remains, as well? They'll either be less keen to run on your GRNDL Refinery (for fear of a trap) or more keen to run on your traps (thinking they're just refineries or big-point agendas). Shattered Remains can even clear out their Plascrete Carapace and open them up for a Scorched Earth.

Of all the places to see NAPD, I never thought it would be GRNDL. Do they work for you? I would think triple Project Atlas would be more reliable, since you run a ton of ETR ICE and could definitely use some tutor effects with a larger deck size. It would also free you up from running Elizabeth Mills, giving you three slots to play around with. Personally, I think that if you're going to run kill components, they'll do more for you fully incorporated. For example, you run one SEA Source, which is the only card in the entire deck that can tag the runner. With a larger deck size, that can be pretty difficult to dig for. Part of GRNDL's strength is in having the money for a big trace when you want to go in for the kill. I think another SEA Source would help, or some other form of tagging them, at least. Again, Project Atlas can help search it out, also. Triple Scorched Earth seems pretty standard, especially for GRNDL.

One final note is that you might want to take a look at your ICE. Quetzal: Free Spirit with an e3 Feedback Implants would tear most of your servers apart. GRNDL was my first Weyland build, so I have a soft spot for it. Best of luck in developing this!
