New to Anarch, would like to get it to 45, i want to use Darwin on a couple of runs only, milling is my primary goal.

If you are running only a couple of times, and milling the deck anyways, I don't think you need a Deep Thought. Imp is run dependent too, I would add a Crypsis or 2 just in case. Also, test runs are nice for searching our those Djinns. Perhaps a Knight or 2 for helping to take care of a central server. I don't really like Gorman Drip in this either.

-Hmm, i had the multiple Imps and the Deep Thought there for milling/Scavenge as cheap options, but certainly am not married to them over any other virus. Will look at other options, but with this being my first Anarch deck ever, i wasn't sure how many viruses i needed to include with Scavenge and Deja Vu to make the mill actually work. Any input on standard numbers would be appreciated.

The Gorman Drip was another econ card that also gets me a mill cheaply, afraid i'm gonna go low on cred sources otherwise. Will definitely see if there are other options.

Maybe -2 Imp, -1 Deep Thought, +2 Crypsis

Not sure where to go from there.

Thanks for the input!

-Now that i look at it, maybe a Personal Touch or two would be good if i add the Crypsis, useful both there and on Darwin.

A few notes on how people mill and some darwin decks issues.

Sahashara will reduce a lot the install cost of all your virus. I recommend those over Scavenge. Levy is great to restart all your viruses once they are in the heap. Scavenge is a great free mill and a way to rescue certain viruses from the heap, but it works only once out of the 49 cards you want to mill.

Every AI icebreaker deck face two problems: The first one is Swordsman, you either prepare some way to install a parasite while running (SMC, clone chip, savoir faire) to kill it as soon as it's rezzed, or add a Killer, mimic is fine. The second problem is the new Wraparound, basically a 7 str barrier unless you have a fracter installed. Pretty tough to break with parasite but at least it doesn't trash your darwin/crypsis on a surprise rez.
