What is Android: Netrunner

Welcome to New Angeles, home of the Beanstalk. From our branch offices in this monument of human achievement, NBN proudly broadcasts all your favorite media programming. We offer fully comprehensive streaming in music and threedee, news and sitcoms, classic movies and sensies. We cover it all. Ours is a brave new age, and as humanity hurtles into space and the future with an astonishing series of new advances every day, NBN and our affiliates are keeping pace, bringing you all the vid that's fit to view.

Android: Netrunner is an asymmetrical Living Card Game for two players. Set in the cyberpunk future of Android and Infiltration, the game pits a megacorporation and its massive resources against the subversive talents of lone runners.

Corporations seek to score agendas by advancing them. Doing so takes time and credits. To buy the time and earn the credits they need, they must secure their servers and data forts with "ice". These security programs come in different varieties, from simple barriers, to code gates and aggressive sentries. They serve as the corporation's virtual eyes, ears, and machine guns on the sprawling information superhighways of the network.

In turn, runners need to spend their time and credits acquiring a sufficient wealth of resources, purchasing the necessary hardware, and developing suitably powerful ice-breaker programs to hack past corporate security measures. Their jobs are always a little desperate, driven by tight timelines, and shrouded in mystery. When a runner jacks-in and starts a run at a corporate server, he risks having his best programs trashed or being caught by a trace program and left vulnerable to corporate countermeasures. It's not uncommon for an unprepared runner to fail to bypass a nasty sentry and suffer massive brain damage as a result. Even if a runner gets through a data fort's defenses, there's no telling what it holds. Sometimes, the runner finds something of value. Sometimes, the best he can do is work to trash whatever the corporation was developing.

It's the deck building game with the most interesting mechanics i've ever played. There are several features that make me love the game: - Hidden information management. - Limited actions in a turn. - Well balanced randomness in the card draw and economy. - Very thematic mechanics. - Well balanced pool of cards for the competitive play. - Hard choices in the deck building process caused by the influence points card cost. Complete Collection with 3x Cores and all Data Packs.

This game is an interesting propossal for a Card game, since each player has a different play where the corporation sets traps to protect their agenda and the netrunners plays to bother the corporation, i feel that this base set really needs some expansions or even buy 2 boxes to make decks right. Great starter but for experimented card games need a little more flavor that i´m sure will come with the tons of expansions to come.

muy buen juego de cartas lcg, pero era mas la expectativa de jugarlo ya que todo el mundo habla maravillas de el, las facciones asimétricas lo hacen muy interesante, el arte y ambientación muy logrado hay que jugarlo con las diferentes facciones para profundizar mas en él. Me crea gran expectativa el juego de mesa en el que se basa, ANDROID; y de lcg me gusta muchísimo mas el señor de los anillos.

Un juego asimétrico donde los dos roles se juegan de manera muy distinta. Gran componente de faroleo, dado que la corporación construye defensas ocultas y trata de anotar puntos desarrollando sus planes, mientras que el runner las ataca para desarticularlas. Me gusta la sensación de evaluar riesgos, farolear, tomar riesgos e incluso hacer locuras y que no puedas ganar si sólo te mantienes en tu zona segura "tortugueando" PROS Mucho tema, buen trabajo artístico. Las condiciones de victoria tienen sentido. Metajuego: preparar el mazo antes de jugar. El juego base es más que suficiente para jugad
