I just looked into this mission, hence the necromancy. And, I really need to know too. Three MAG? 12 Edge? I thought I had finally found a prewritten run that actually mechanically made sense. It did better than most though and is coherent at least.
I mean... I suppose that is the only way someone would be able to go toe-to-toe with that troll mage on the astral, despite only initiating twice.
