How would you go about making and utilizing spam for your benefit?
Could you spam up the area around you so that enemies using AR have to suffer negatives to target you or use an action to clear away the spam? What exactly can you do to counteract such spam warfare? |

rules for spam zones on pg 210. basically 1-3 dice penalty depending on how bad the spam is.
for making it, They'd say code your own spamming program using hacking program guidelines(pg 240) rating 1-3 using exploit(to get past spam filters) and edit(to create the spam on the fly) to spam the area. As for refiltering it, perhaps an analyze(for telling the difference between spam and useful functions) and attack(to eradicate the spam) or maybe armor(to defend against it) combo programmed using Firewall guidelines. Not sure how reasonable that sounds(or would work out), but it's the first few things that came to mind. |

Tuck several dozen ARO emitters into a canister with a compressed CO2 cartridge, so that when the cartridge is opened they blow out in every direction like a low-velocity grenade. Program them with images, music, scrolling text, and a variety of anti-spam-filter variables in place, so that they run decent odds of making it into someone's PAN. Toss downrange, and make sure YOUR PAN already has those ARO's blocked.
*POPPFFFFFF* and bingo... instant AR wall-o-noise... |
