Solidarity Badge

♦ Solidarity Badge 1[credit]

Hardware: Chip
Influence: 1

The first time each turn you trash a Corp card, place 1 power counter on this hardware.

When your turn begins, you may remove 1 hosted power counter to draw 1 card or remove 1 tag.

It is hard, once free, to learn when to call for help.

    Does the Runner need to remove a power counter to remove a tag with Solidarity Badge?

    Yes. The “remove 1 hosted power counter” cost applies to both the “draw 1 card” and the “remove 1 tag” options.

Reviews

Solidarity Badge is like a Chop Bot 3000 crossed with Friday Chip.

If you can trash a Corp card each turn, then you'll draw a card each turn (cf. creds for cards).

Note: While clearing tags at the start of your turn is worse than at the end of your turn, such as after encountering an observer, it will still clear any terminal tags (or tags you've floated); and it still saves the [click], [$2] basic-detag. For example, if you've trashed their card, they can Oppo Research, but you've also “charged” a Badge, which then can remove one of the four tags (before they can punish it).
