I came up with this idea during our last session, and we all cracked up.
Originally, I just said: "Have a drone, have an agent with command, infinitely copy the agent, and viola! Inifnite attacks per round!"

Each agent needs a different ID if I want to run them all from the same node. Let's just forget about this though. I can patch them with a one week extended test, have them access the drone from various nodes, or just load them all onto my persona. So here's the plan:
