About the game
Hey there, Shadowrun: Crossfire crew! Got a fresh little something to spice up your games: the Harlequin's Shadow Promo Card. This little gem was handed out at GenCon 2014 and it's not just any old card. It's essential for tackling the 'Close The Portal' scenario, which you can download directly from the Catalyst Game Labs website. Think of it as a card that adds a special strategic touch to your cooperative gameplay. It fits perfectly with the deck-building aspect and the race to close the portal, adding that extra challenge we all love. If you're into Shadowrun: Crossfire and want to liven up your missions, this promo item can make a difference. Get your decks ready, adjust your strategies, and dive into this new scenario. Remember, it's an expansion, so you'll need the base game to enjoy this addition. The idea is precisely to complement the experience, bringing a new challenge and more replayability for those who have already mastered the basic rules and are looking for something more. It's the kind of item that makes us want to collect and try everything the Shadowrun universe has to offer, especially when it adds an extra tactical layer to building your deck and the team's survival.
