Janus 1.0/Project Junebug/Merlin + The Twins kill deck

rez a Heinlein Grid and forfeit a False Lead for a pretty save kill either using Merlin or Janus 1.0 together with The Twins because who needs ETR ice anyway

Have you thought about using Howler in here it could be used to get your combo up and running faster.

definitly thought about it but it would deny me the ID ability of The Foundry: Refining the Process which I intend to use for Janus 1.0/Merlin (could rez Howler with Eliza's Toybox but I think it will hardly be worth the 3 clicks)

If I am correct, Howler's effect would trigger the ID's effect quite nicely. Howler allows you to install and rez a bioroid from HQ, which then triggers the ID, letting you add the same bioroid from R&D to HQ.

@FarCryFromHuman true enough,though (correct me if I am wrong) that would require howler to be already rezzed in the first place therefore diminishing the element of suprise. Additionally, it leaves the runner with the option to jack out after Howler without having to encounter Janus 1.0 (disregarding the fact that Janus 1.0 would be the only valid target for Howlers subroutine) and since I donĀ“t want that (going for the kill when the runner cannot jack out on the first piece of ice encountered) howler would be disadvantageous in this particular build.

@megamaster Rezzing Howler is insignificant (he costs 1), but jacking out is definitely an issue. I suppose with the ID, you don't even really need Howler.
