If you are determined to use Pipeline, I would find room for 3 x Personal Touch.

Also, not sure what Toolbox is giving you for the 9cr install cost. You don't need the memory, so just use Astrolabe.

With your economy package, definitely give Prepaid Voicepad a look.

Capstone?????????!

Personal Touch isn't in the deck because its the same cost for 1 strength. Toolbox is a question, but it's two credits for icebreakers. If it's worth the cost is the question in my mind. Capstone because there are a lot of unique cards x2 and three copies of each breaker and I hate drawing cards I don't need. So I turned them into card draw potentially for 2 credits.

I see the reason for personal touch though

Special Order... strange. Very strange.

@Perry524 - I think we need to look at efficiency here. Conceptually I get the theme, but reality is a harsh mistress. First off - Study Guide, (just, no). I love Study Guide, I use it all the time, but only in Rielle "Kit" Peddler: Transhuman, with support from multiple Multithreaders. If you want to power Study Guide from The Toolbox, then you need your Inside Man to support that, which costs 3 a piece as it is. Battering Ram and Pipeline are an interesting choice, but Pipeline is an offender for costs - and that's not taking into account you aren't supporting your Lucky Finds with Prepaid VoicePADs.

I respect the difference in build, anyone who knows me knows I'm sick of the replica Kate builds, but we need to address efficiency, costs, combo pieces, etc. If I were you, without going down the typical Prepaid VoicePAD route, consider the following:

-An AI that can get you into most places, possibly Faust to make use of unique cards with copies already installed.

-A Sabotage card - Something that disrupts the corp's tempo, like an Account Siphon or Wanton Destruction, as a corp left unchecked will execute their typical plans.

-Remove Inside Man, as he's too expensive and might not pay off compared to spending your cards on more money, such as an additional Lucky Find.

-Swap Special Order for Self-modifying Code, it's in faction and it's better, end of.

- Remove Study Guide and put in Gordian Blade.

- Remove Tyson Observatory. Do you 'really' need the Hardware that early? Consider you may be bogged down with cards in hand you can't afford to install.

- Swap Ice Carver with Scrubbed or Datasucker. Sure, it's not doing as good-a-job as Ice Carver, but 6 influence man...for 2 copies of a resource...in a post D&D game. Let me know how you get on with Ice Carver.

Hope this helps somewhat, and good luck!
