Metaphysics - The Net 2.0

When it comes to gaming, I have traditionally been a card game guy. If it is or was a CCG, I’ve played it…. with one glaring exception: Netrunner. When I started paying CCGs in the late 90’s, Netrunner had already fallen off the radar into out-of-print land. I never found myself backtracking to check it out, and my love affair with Doomtown was taking up most of my extra card gaming time.

Deconstructing: Anarchs

So, now that Gencon is out the way and all of the cards are spoiled, I thought it would be good to get a discussion of the factions and cards within them.

I wanted to start with Anarchs, as after reading the complete card list, they became the Runner faction I want to try the most (previously it was Shapers).

Now, everything I am about to post is pure theory, as I was not at Gencon, and haven't played a real game yet. But, that won't stop me talking about the cards, and hoping it encourages others to join in.
