Your own. Personal. Noises.

A combination of Personal Workshop, all the toys of Noise, and some tricks. I'm loving the idea of Personal Workshop and being able to Stimhack out beastie toys mid-run. Feels almost SMC-like, but even better as it can get Hardware in addition to Programs. Having to run multiple copies of things is tough, and a few too many 1x's of things so if anyone has streamlining suggestions let me know!

Well that was easy, I think -1 Hostage, +1 Quality Time is a start.

Yeah, Hostage is only getting you Kati ... may as well just run a 3rd Kati and save the click & cred. If you like Morning Star, have Crypsis, and Datasuckers you may want to think of dropping Corroder, as Morning Star will get you through everything you need cheaper. Even after a wipe, you can crypsis through Hadrians/Wotan, and start your sucker chain back.

I do feel like you're going to be running super low on Memory, even running Corroder, Yog, Mimic, you'll NEED suckers, and then that leaves you with 1 mem for Parasite/Nerve Agent, and never getting Keyhole out.

May want to try: 2+ Djinn -1 Nerve Agent -1 Parasite. That way you have more memory, and can tutor those viruses.

I've gone -3 Dirty Laundry (not feeling a cash pinch in it, not when Stimhack is basically free money on-a-run for any program on PW) and did pick up 2 Djinn and 1 more Grimoire, as that extra 2 memory seems pretty key.

Thanks for the tip on corroder, but what do you think about dropping Crypsis in favour of Femme? (The Hostage drop freed up the influence for it) I suspect it'll work better with PW set ups. Being able to 'slow roll' Femme on the PW instead of trying to hard cast it from hand.
