You can play a second Emergency Rig on a piece of ice that already has Kludge counters on it to extend the number of turns it can remain in play. When the last Kludge counter is removed, each Rig's effect trashes the ice, so saving the ice would require using more than one prevention effect. |

The Kludge counters stay on the ice even if it is derezzed. |

You can play Emergency Rig on a piece of non-Kludged ice that is already rezzed; the ice will be trashed when the last Kludge Counter is removed. |

Trivia
The Kludge counters used by this card get their name from a common computer programmer's term. A kludge is a makeshift piece of programming which solves a given problem quickly, but not in an efficient or entirely reliable way. To kludge a program is to fix it with a kludge. |
