I'll always love the Assassin as the ideal caddy for an m-coil in the HBS BattleTech game.

Ciri has a card, but it's tied to a realtime timer that starts when you begin playing, and you'll need Games Done Quick level speed to get to her in time.

This should coexist with Rainbow 6 (1998, novel/videogame), but the FBI and NetForce are comically incompetent in the field here. Repeatedly. And they rag on each other for being bad at their jobs.
