[Startup] You May Fire When Ready (1st @ WFET)

Cobalt 651

Went 3-0 with this at the World's First Elevation Tournament in Birmingham. I was a bit stuck as to what to play, but this came to me out of nowhere when remembering Jaguarundi - and then Salvo Testing - were cards in light of Measured Response. You can't keep 4 cards in hand if you have 2 core damage!

...as it happens, nobody ran my jaguars all day. 1 facedown ice on HQ is apparently enough to dissuade runners.

Still, this is PD nevertheless, and a scoring win is more than feasible; you just now also have some scary-looking people with explosives standing over the Runner's shoulder once a few points are scored. Staying safe from Reponse is really hard if you want to keep trying to run, particularly with Brân hanging around.

I loved Humanoid Resources here, particularly when the triple install lined up with Greasing the Palm. It's just good value! (Thunderbirds theme optional while resolving effect.)

It was, as always, lovely to see everyone and I had a really great time playing. Here's to many more Elevated games!
