Money Wall

My first Weyland deck that tested out a couple strategies. How effective is operations+agenda economy (no asset economy)? Also, is Off the Grid viable? My playtest results show these strategies work very well.

Objective is to load up on $ through operations and agendas. You heavily fortify HQ to protect the off the grid remote server (you only need 1). You defend R&D with ICE and also via precognition to make successful runs ineffective. When you think HQ is fairly safe you drop Curtain Wall on the far end (for the strength bonus) and then play Off the grid and start speed advancing agendas in the off the grid server.

Vet program is to mitigate the bad pub you get from hostile takeover and geothermal fracking (if you cash in the counters off it). Either of which can be sacrificed once they score to rez Archer, in addition to priority req which will pay the added cost for archer (or the fatty price of curtain wall).

Jackson howard is used for card drawing as needed but mostly for recycling key cards back into R&D like off the grid, precog, curtain wall, and if you clump a bunch of agendas in your hand.

A couple side benefits I found is the lack of remote servers can hurt runners who are hoping for bank job credit revenues. I typically only put out jackson howard and most of the time I don't leave him out there if the runner plays a bank job (you can sac him anytime I believe).

The deck is weak to sneakdoor beta and many times requires you to ice up your archives as well. This can slow down the deck a bit but the economy is capable of handling the rez costs if you need to protect archives.
