Hey all

I am just getting back into Netrunner after a few months hiatus (had difficulty getting hold of the Data Packs until I turned to online sellers), and I have a question…

Lets say I make a run, and I use Snitch to expose a piece of unrezzed ICE. I choose not to jack out. Can I then trash my Cortez Chip in response? i.e, after I know what the ICE is, but before I know whether the Corp intends to rez it.

(I know I cannot wait until the Corp decides to rez the ICE to use the Chip to increase the cost)

Many thanks!

Yes, this would work. If you haven't yet, check out the FAQ, there is an updated timing structure of a run. Snitch would trigger at step 2 when you approach the ice. Step 2.1 is where paid abilities can be triggered (Cortez Chip). The corp has the opportunity to rez the ice at step 2.3

Awesome.

How does Snitch interact with Zaibatsu Loyalty? If I'm prevented from exposing the ICE, do I still get the opportunity to jack out?

If you can't expose the ICE, Snitch does not give you the opportunity to jack out (if it isn't the first ICE, you may still jackout normally). The reason is the word "then": for the part after it to take effect, the part before it needs to be successful.
