Project SciRed - Progress Log 1.0 Date : 5/06/15

  • Agenda Analysis Genetic Resequencing grants a net damage to House of Knives, an end the run to Nisei Mk II or a 1 credit ice discount with Braintrust.

  • Asset Analysis SciRed aims to take whichever route would be most beneficial to it depending on the matchup. Tech Startup in our sole remote allows us to punish a runner that doesn't infiltrate it. It can give us a day of Melange (1-turn 6 credit swings are great in Jinteki), Levy abuse (explained in detail later), threaten a Ronin or Trick situation, even summon forth the Chairman to impose a dire tax on the Runner.

  • Side note 01 - Private Contract allows R&D to retain sturdiness and is a substitute for Melange if runner taxing / credit flexibility is desired.

  • Operation - Trick of Light Take advantage of your Wormhole advancements (do it twice; 3 creds is still a great rez cost / strength ratio and keeps things neat).

  • ICE - And the brains behind them. Levy allows us to grab whichever ice we need at the moment and frees up influence. We want to protect each central while making them hard to deal with. Meru Mati offers excellent, cheap protection against Account Siphons; Gutenburg can slow down or even eliminate resource econ; Turing turns your single remote into an impossible-to-AI tax. Crick causes Archives to spawn your beloved assets for furthur use. Excalibur on a favorite central turns your remote into a phantom!

  • Specialty ICE - Wormhole Decades of research has been poured into the science behind wormholes. SciRed has joined Weyland's efforts and produced ICE that will enable Jinteki's ToL regime and utilize any other necessary subroutines.

Key subroutines that Wormhole enables:

-> End the Run. (8 ICE options, one if which also offers 2 net damage!) -> Install a card from Archives. (Crick, this can save a Chairman Hiro from being stolen mid-run, replacing it with a taxing asset like PriCon.) -> The runner loses click, if able. (They just might be able!) -> Trace^7 - If successful, give the Runner 1 tag. (So they thought they could cover tag costs?) -> Do 3 net damage. Must resist drooling

Further updates pending...

Princess Space Kitten was here!

Great deck ideas, but seems lack of econ, no ? Otherwise, this deck is very interresting. Why ? Because it change from others classicals RP glaciers decks.

I realized that after doing some sample opening hands. Decided to throw in 3x Celebrity Gift. Didnt want to at first because it would give away my HQ, but its the best burst econ Jinteki can manage (aside from Melange)... I guess only experimentation will tell. Thanks for the encouragement!
