Probably the best current use of this card is to turn that -1 News Team into a 2 point agenda. If you're playing this along with Temple of the Liberated Mind, All-nighter or Hyperdriver or Amped Up then you'll only be too happy to take News Team as an agenda.

Another use is for Fan Site although this has significant downsides when compared to News Team. For a start, Fan Site has to be out before the corp scores an agenda. Second, the corp now has an agenda which they might be willing to forfeit in order to stop you cashing in Liberated Chela.

Notoriety has fewer problems than Fan Site - the corp doesn't need to score first although you might not like the economy of turning 1 point into 2 for the cost of getting Liberated Chela set up - however if you're on six points it could win the game for you.

Could be paired well with something like Sports Hopper for protection if there's a server that you know you can run through because it's only protected by things like Komainu, Chetana, Neural Katana.

The reason you'd want something like Sports Hopper is in case they rez something like Dedicated Response Team which does damage to you AFTER the run ends and AFTER the effect of TNP is over. Of course you might have a Plascrete Carapace.

So one of the most apparent uses for this card would be to do something like start the game as Andromeda: Dispossessed Ristie to get a nine card opening hand and then turn into Gabriel Santiago: Consummate Professional or Leela Patel: Trained Pragmatist or whoever would be best in your current match up. Out of all the runners I think this works best with Andy since her ability is her opening hand. After that she's not doing anything for you.

For the other factions I think this is a harder card to want to slot in. Maybe if you're playing Kate "Mac" McCaffrey: Digital Tinker and once you have your rig all set up then you might want to rebirth into Rielle "Kit" Peddler: Transhuman for easy code gates or Jesminder Sareen: Girl Behind the Curtain for tag protection. Chaos Theory: Wünderkind could make good use of it since her best asset is the 40 card minimum meaning you can have a very tight deck and then rebirth into someone with a more useful ability, like Kate or Kit.

This card combos well in any anarch deck that's running either Inject, Retrieval Run or Street Peddler.

With Inject, first you use Making an Entrance so that you can fix what cards you'll draw. Low on cards and want to fill up your hand? Place anything but programs in the first floor slots. Want some credits? Do the opposite and top load your stack with programs.

Similarly with Street Peddler, nobody likes it when they get two or even worse three cards that they'd have really liked hosted on Street Peddler knowing that you're going to lose two of them. So before putting it down you rearrange the top six cards of your stack so that you can be sure to know what's going onto Street Peddler and whats going to end up in the head.

With Retrieval Run. You can put programs that you want access to right away but don't want to pay the install cost of them simply by trashing them straight to the bin. Things like Femme Fatale. And of course if you're splashing Clone Chip you can get programs into the heap that you want for your runs, something Anarchs are a big fan of.

Making an Entrance can set you up with information for your next few turns or set up a combo to be used right away with the cards mentioned above. It can also trim the fat from your deck that you might not need in the current match you're playing. A good include in any Anarch deck.

Just a note for any newer players, SanSan City Grid doesn't reduce the number of advancement tokens needed on Beale to have it be worth extra points. If you install a Beale in a remote with a rezzed SanSan then you can score it on 2 advancement tokens to have it be worth 2 agenda points but you'll still need to 5 advancement tokens to make it worth 3 agenda points, 7 tokens for 4 agenda points and so on.

The most common use of Project Beale seems to just be to use it off of the Astro-train (AstroScript Pilot Program to score it for a win because once you've the Astro-train going you're scoring out of hand even without a SanSan. I've rarely seen it advanced for anything other than it's base agenda value with the exception of some Trick of Light or with Shipment from SanSan magic.
