Liberation Part 1 - The Automata Initiative
A Storm Gathers Overhead
Brazil has long been a haven for androids, with human rights extended to both clones and bioroids within its borders. Legislation has been introduced into the Brazilian parliament that would strip bioroids of those very rights and protections. This āAutomata Initiativeā would remove their legal personhood from the constitution and cement the status of bioroids as robots without soul or sentience. With tensions building between corporate meddlers, a protesting populace, and sympathetic Runners, the stage is set for a conflict that questions the very nature of what it means to be a person.
The Automata InitiativeĀ is the first set of theĀ Liberation Cycle, which is set in Brazil. As the population is in uproar over proposed legislation to remove rights of personhood from bioroids comes before the National Congress, a broad coalition of Runners struggle to expose the involvement of the Corps.
The Automata InitiativeĀ contains 65 brand-new cards, including four identities, and introducesĀ the brand new Threat mechanicĀ to Netrunner.
