Space Missiles - No Risk involved.

A Jermison Astronautics build.

Agendas: The three core agendas are High-Risk, Atlas and Hostile. Hostile you really want to see 1 of early-game both to turn on your Oberth Protocols and to fuel you economy, but more than 1 isn't necessarily a good thing, too much bad publicity isn't good for the game plan. I've never had good use for CST and would swap it for anything useful if I knew of something, scoring it is never worth more than the Atlas-/High-Risk token(s) you'd get from your other agendas. Always get as many Atlas tokens as possible. Don't be scared to sacrifice Atlas, just pay attention to the remaining agendas and how you get to 7-points the easiest. An atlas with 3 counters is worth 3 counters more than an atlas with 0 and lets you score remaining hostiles really easily. High-Risk Investments are very properly named :-)

ICE: The only ICE that isn't, at the very least a little, annoying to face-check is Meru Mati, but the rez/tax ratio on that one is too good to say no to. The rest of the suite are multi-sub ICE that will tax the runner even when you have 1 BP. Don't run Archer, you really cant be sacrificing your agendas both to Oberth and Archer. If you are forced to rez a lot of ICE early due to aggressive running this suite will slow the runner down at least as much as you - this is good. Don't expect to fire a lot of etr subroutines, they don't work as intended anyway.

Upgrades: Bryan Stinson. The ICE is permeable but taxing for a reason, after a few pokes on your servers most runners go below 6 credits and then you skyrocket to 30, hopefully. This is the game plan. From here you can threaten Midseason->BOOM!, all the while forcing the runner to trash Oberth Protocol in your remote repeatedly. Don't bother with etr subs on the remote, it isn't important. If they don't go trash just start scoring out, with 10 agendas in the deck you're constantly flooded so there is always stuff to score, which is also the reason that this doesn't run more 1-pointers.

Oberth Protocol, well FA 3/5's :-)

Crisium Grid is really nice at the moment due to Indexing, Siphon, Vamp etc. being prevalent.

Operations: Friends is pretty good recursion, reinstalls Oberth and whatever else you need.

Consulting Visit is a pretty good tutor.

The economy package is a little slim only Hedge/Restructure (and hostiles), but once you get just 1 Bryan fire on either you're sitting pretty. Besides all ICE cost only 2-4 credits to rez, 2-3 credits counting the subroutines on Veritas/Mausolus.

Midseason Replacement - if you manage to pull off some Bryan shenanigans it should be pretty easy to land many many tags.

Hard Hitting News - if both you and the runner have 0 credits you are better off than them due to Bryan, this used to be the other way around in my opinion. Play this to tag of course, but if you see an opportunity to fire HHN and force the runner to clear tags and fall into Bryan range, it's sometimes even better than them going tag me - unless of course you blow them up next turn.

MCA Informant is a good enough tech slot even without its degenerate combo with Corporate Troubleshooter. You tend to score a lot of agendas and the runner tends to steal some too and 20 Aaron Marron counters sucks. Also has some use vs Councilman, Kati Jones, Aesops and the like.

BOOM! is BOOM! which is nice.

Overall the deck performs reasonably well, you do lose some games due to High-Risk steals and "hail mary" rnd accesses once runners are tagged, but that's the nature of real 3-pointers and a lot of games are also won with of High-Risk counters.

Bryan Stinson is a bit odd I feel, it's a really strong card unless your opponent respects it - it's somewhat easy to stay above 6 credits once you know you have to, making it a pretty bad card and probably not worth the deck slots. HHN does provide some surprise taxing to your opponent though, even so try not to let the cat out the bag with Bryan.
