probably will be a poor game strategy, but hey... trying new stuff is half the fun, right?
They will be exposed simultaneously, right?
Assuming you have a Blackguard installed, which ICE must be rezzed if the corp can only afford one of those?
No. The runner is the active player, and thus gets to choose the order in which they expose up to two cards.
So i can peek under my first target, before i select the second one?
That's neat, didn't realize that before. Thanks!
That's true of any "simultaneous" effect. You do one thing at a time and choose the order according to Timing Priority.
Regarding the question about Blackguard, according to the FAQ, the Runner exposes both cards first, then chooses the order of the Blackguard effect (so can pick the second exposed card to be rezzed first).
I have to disagree with Meadbeard and KillerShrike on this one.
Page 22 of the rulebook says "If multiple cards are exposed by one effect they are considered to be exposed simultaneously." There is only one effect on Satellite Uplink - that of exposing two cards. Unfortunately you can't look at one target before choosing the other.
Interesting. I was not aware of that rule. Does any card other than Sat Uplink expose more than 1 card as a single effect?
Not to the best of my knowledge. I know that they already had the first few data packs designed at the time of core set's release, so I guess they were just preempting any potential problems by putting that in the rules.
Good catch, bozfoogle, and really strange, since it goes against all other "simultaneous" effects. I guess it makes sense in terms of one thing doing two things.
The Blackguard effect is the same, picking one to rez before the other (this is in the FAQ).
