==Combat==

: In combat, you can use any of your .exe files to attack the opponent's code core. Your varying weapons can take a certain amount of ms to use. The attack goes off immediately, but then you have to wait the amount of ms given before taking another action. Along the same lines, certain abilities can make you wait longer. Every 10 ms, varying effects are calculated (glitch damage, poison, regeneration).  

: There are three things you can do to defend yourself against an attacker that's specifically attacking you.

1. Use a Firewall.

* Firewalls add a static defense against an opponent, and the most basic defense of users. If you decide to use a Firewall, you add the opponent's attack ms to the time you wait before you act.

* Example: Starting the fight, Joe the Script Kiddie uses dezerteagle.exe against a Virus Bot. Joe has a POWer of 4, and the Virus Bot uses Firewall 1. The difference is 3, and would roll 3d10 to see their success against the Bot. After damage, if the Bot is still alive, add +5 ms (time cost of the action) before they get to act again.

2. Dodge the Attack

* Use your InterFACE versus your opponent's POWer. This takes 10 ms.

3. Take the Hit

* Your opponent just hits you. You lose no time, but your opponent rolls an unmodified POWer to see how successful the strike becomes.
