Date |

The bits are gained as soon as the agenda is accessed, so the Runner can use these bits to pay trash costs or pay costs for stealing agenda (e.g. Red Herrings). |

If multiple agendas are accessed from the trash, say if a virus like cascade is trashing cards from the top of the deck, or the corp is discarding agendas face down into the trash, do the effects of prearranged drop stack? if i access two agendas, is that 12 bits?
My friend and i are playing around with an idea for using gypsy analyzer to force agendas into the corp's hand, then using a big hit on hq with hq mole and mercenary subcontract to trash cards to the archives. then using prearranged drop to rack up some big money out of the trash, and possibly the game, or if not, enough bits to run and win the game

Hi Michael,
When you access two agendas, you don't get 12 bits.
This is because Prearranged Drop gives you bits "The next time you access an agenda this turn". When accessing cards from the archives, Runner accesses one card after the next (Runner chooses the order I would say), so it will be only one time.
If the card would read "For each agenda you access this turn", then you would get 12 bits.
However, if you played two Prearranged Drops before your run, you would get 12 bits (6 for each Prearranged Drop).
