Payment Up-Front

Never pay the drug dealer!

Do what you can to end up on no credits at the start of your turn. Tell the Drug dealer to come back next week then gather your underworld contacts and data folding credits. You'll usually have enough credits at turn start to install more resource cards while keeping scoring windows closed with Faust.

Play Faust ASAP. Hit wherever you can get to cheaply and trash what you can considering credits will often be lost anyway. Underworld Contacts, Data Foldings and Daily Casts make excellent Faust fodder when you have a few on the table already. Faust will quickly become more efficient with E3.

Imp, D4v1d and parasite help solve many problems you might encounter having very few credits mid game. Keep a bank with Ms Jones ready for a vamp run should you need to run a caprice/batty server or just for a tempo boost.

Corroder for wraparound and because sometimes it's nice not to have to ditch a card to get past ice wall, also Ashigaru can be a pain.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
