couple questions

By papalorax, in Android: Netrunner Rules Questions

1) Unless Icebreaker says +1 strength for remainder of run...the strength pump is just for that single ice encounter...right?

2) Can Modded be combined with other cost reducers (Kate)?

3) Can you save your own Crypsis with Sacrificial Construct ? If no, what about Faerie?

4) If something allows you to access multiple cards from HQ - do you look at one, put it back, reshuffle - look at another (thereby giving you the chance of seeing the same one) or look at them one by one without reshuffling their hand.

1) Yes

2) Yes (granted you couldn't spend two modded at once to reduce Femme/Toolbox/etc twice)

3) Bleh, there was a ruling on this regarding saving programs that have trashing as a cost. I don't remember off the top of my head.

4) One by one without reshuffling. The whole point of multiple draws during one run is so you don't see the same card twice. Though once you draw the next card, you cannot go back to a previous one and decide to trash it (if able). You must decide what you are going to do with a card before you draw the next.

Regarding Sacrificial Construct: Yes, it can save Crypsis. However, anything that requires a program be trashed as a cost REQUIRES the cost be paid in full to get the effect. Therefore if you prevent Faerie's self-trash, it can't break anything.

Ngunz is correct everywhere he's answered definitively.

Faerie and Crypsis work the same. Deus X, however, has trash as a cost.

Oh, poop. Sorry, I mis-remembered Faerie. ethereal is correct, and Sacrificial Construct can save both Faerie and Crypsis. Apologies for confusion.

The ones you CAN'T save will be formatted as [trash symbol] : [effect]
