Space Tax, feedback requested.

Unguarded 28

This is my first attempt at deck building, criticism is more than welcome.

The idea of the deck is to use the taxing nature of Gagarin Deep Space: Expanding the Horizon combined with NBN denial cards like Reversed Accounts and Tollbooth to keep the runner poor while using the cheap nature of the cosmic ice to skirt by on low econ yourself.

I'm using Government Takeover to make the deck agenda-lean, and Glenn Station as a way to hide it should the need arise.

I'm using Data Raven and Flare as good targets for the copied subroutines of Wormhole and Orion.

Note on Scorched Earth: I'm not using it, but it's because everyone in my play group uses it, and I know that me simply showing up with a Weyland ID will make everyone assume I'm using it and play around it. This assumption is especially powerful when they run into Data Raven. Maybe a few weeks down the road they'll catch on and I'll have to tweak it again.

Questions:

  1. Do I need more econ?

  2. I would like to fit in Punitive Counterstrike in the rare chance I can combo it with Government Takeover. I would probably need Project Atlas to fish it out at the right time but I'm unsure of what to remove.

  3. Have I invested too much into the advanceable ice theme?

  4. Is Executive Boot Camp needed?

Executive Boot Camp will really help you get the most out of your PAD campaigns and Satellite Grids. More importantly, perhaps, its asset-tutoring ability means you don't have to play as many copies of each asset. If anything, I would cut out the multiples there, rather than cutting EBCs.

@lodger I understand your reasoning. So if I take out the multiples, what should I put in?
