London Leela

So I started tinkering with this and it's been a blast to play. Like many Logos-Leela variants, it plays more Mid-range and Control (though you will notice that there is no account siphon, but that has to do with the importance of not floating tags).

The traditional defense against Leela is to set up a few layers of ICE (normally two) so that when her ability fires, there's still a "rung" of ice left that Leela has to deal with. This doesn't matter as much to London Leela. Even if the first layer of Ice is rezzed, Femme takes care of that problem.

The most fun turns are where servers are double iced, and you go, install Femme Fatale on London Library, then Inside Job to get where ever you need to go, third click for something or other, then fourth click to take the femme off the library.

In several games I had the "power turn" on a remote server--steal the agenda, bounce a layer of ice on R and D (or HQ), head over there to cause some headaches (primarily from agendas getting jammed in there due to Fisk Investment Seminar ), then click femme back to hand.

The Gang Signs/HQ Interface adds a second layer of frustration to the corp as they need to use up Jackson to smooth things out.

Overall, this has been crazy fun to play. I'm going to continue testing--and would love suggestions! Daily Castsis kind of a placeholder...I've thought about slotting in Paper Tripping in it's place just to watch out for mid-seasons shenanigans.
