Hi there!Sorry if this has been asked before, but I think I've checked the forums and can't find the info anywhere!

I ask this as it seems highly important- particulary for "Traces" i.e. are traces a blind bid, or do you know exactly how much money your opponent has got to play around with? Can you ask your opponent to show his pool of resources?
This would also be important for the criminal deck, when thinking whether you should use the run-card which steals money from the corp (the one a 2-1 ratio).
Also, on the point of strategy, could you give some tips when playing the corps? I used NCN last afternoon, and had no credits to play around with at all! lol. Do you really need to construct your own deck, and start adding "adonis campaign" and "beanstalk royalties" to get the credits you need and rely on, as the corps?
We were using the reccomendation of the rulebook, i.e. just using the cards of one faction, and adding in all of the respective neutral cards as well!
Please give a newbie good advice!
Many thanks in advance,
Ewan
