While Madani doesn't give you any +1[mu] (like every other Console), it does implicitly increase your virtual memory-limit: hosted programs won't use MU, but they will still be available to install mid-run. CF. a Leprechaun-esque a Daemon with The memory costs of hosted programs do not count against your memory limit.

It can also repeatedly enable DZMZ Optimizer on the Corp's turn (saving 2[$] per ‘round’). Same with other The first time each turn you install a program, … or The first program you install each turn … triggers/conditions, (although not LilyPAD, being a Console itself).


However, I'd prefer a templating that preserves hidden-information, like:

  • [click]: Host any number of cards from your grip facedown on this hardware.
  • Once per turn → 0[$]: Install 1 hosted card that's a program.

PS. The first three times I re-read Madani, I realized something new. Very Shaper!
