Rebellion Without Rehearsal

It wasn’t fair, but it had never been fair. Not even for a moment. Mercury would spend the rest of their life grappling with their actions. But now, for the first time, they were free to determine how.

Rebellion Without Rehearsal is the second half of the Liberation Cycle. It concludes the story began in The Automata Initiative, in which the passage of a law set to strip bioroids of personhood caused uproar throughout Brazil. As the protests turn violent, and only the President’s signature is needed for this law to be enacted, the activists striving to protect bioroid rights make unlikely alliances and decide how far they’re willing to go.

Rebellion Without Rehearsal contains full playsets of 65 new Netrunner cards, including three identities.

Note: Due to card back differences between our products, as well as due to different color matching between our different printing partners, these cards should be used in opaque sleeves.

Our shop can currently serve customers in the United States of America, Canada, Australia, and all 27 countries in the European Union. We are gradually expanding to new regions (we hope to add the United Kingdom to this list soon), so please check back again if your country is not served.

Cards sold through our online shop are MPC 330gsm stock, or equivalent weight and quality from one of the other printers we work with, and come in a cardboard tuckbox. Prices include free shipping. All cards are shipped from within the region they serve, so they will not incur import charges or VAT.

Our shop also has a retailer portal, where games stores can place wholesale orders of our cards. Feel free to point your Friendly Local Games Store towards it!

(Note: if the store does not automatically redirect you to the correct localized version, you can select your country and currency from the drop-down menu at the foot of the page.)
