Cortical Scrub: The Colonel's Failure
By Ben Matthews
It's the end of a long, grueling battle between you, the wily Runner, and Tara B., the devious Corporation. You managed to score an early Political Overthrow from HQ, but suffered some serious setbacks from Tara's goon squads for your troubles. In the meantime she also managed to advance a Vapor Ops to extremely serious levels, and scored a PO of her own. The Good News is that the Corp is down to one card left in R&D, which must certainly be the third Political Overthrow. The Bad News is that as soon as Tara draws that card, she'll be able to score it with the 9 counters still left on her Vapor Ops. The Really Bad News is the high levels of protection provided to the Corp by an almost unlimited cash supply and several pieces of dangerous ice. Oh...and don't forget the fact that you're currently broke, and don't even have a sentry breaker installed. Do you have what it takes to get through Tara's defenses to the winning agenda? Good luck, Runner.
