    Can the Corp move Georgia Emelyov to a new remote server?

    No. Georgia Emelyov must be moved to another server that already exists. New remote servers can only be made during installations.

Reviews

Georgia is better than her card text looks.

I could write this giant explanation about she is excellently costed, flexible, annoying, and has potential to just blow out games, but I think she is best presented with an brief open anecdote where you, the reader, can fill in the gaps.

I had a standard Palana deck. I swapped Georgia into my deck taking up random prior Snare!. Just one copy of her. I ran three very common cards - Komainu, Nisei MK II, and Caprice Nisei.

When I drew Georgia, she lived with Caprice and created a power couple the runner loved to hate. However, as Palana often does, I scored a couple Nisei MK II for 4 Agenda Points and the runner started dropping R&D threats and flying through my Komainu over it.

Georgia Emelyov promptly moved over, threw a Nisei token in their tea, and wrote a big "L" in the player scorecard. As many times as I scored out, Georgia flatlined the runner with this sillyness. I also played a Nisei Division: The Next Generation deck with Chetana. I used Marcus Batty to fire the psychic field subroutine, and Georgia ran over with her Nisei token and once again 'slam dunked' the Runner again.

Fuck Snare. If you run Nisei MK II, Caprice Nisei, and/or Komainu/Chetana, run 1x Georgia. You won't regret it.

She's also almost untrashable. —
Also a fun interaction: Replicating Perfection sitting on a mountain of credits such that you can shuffle Georgia between Central servers and your Caprice Nisei remote. Makes the decision of how to tackle the central server run much thornier. —
Umbral, I LOVE that idea. —

Why doesn't Georgia go visit Hokusai sometime? Get damned if you do, damned if you don't. Unleash her Potential. This isn't business. It's war.

On a completely thematic note, you could probably restore face with her in a pinch, but how you're going to square that with special report, I have no idea.

(Zombie Emelyov. The answer is zombie Emelyov.)
