==Computer Rules==
 
 
===Hacking===
 
:Dice Pool: Int + Computer + equipment vs (System Security or Int + Computer + equipment)
 
:Action: Extended and contested (5-10+ successes; each roll represents 30 min)
 
The hacker needs to accumulate a number of successes equal to the network's basic security setup. The sysadmin (if any) needs to accumulate a number of successes equal to the hacker's Int + Computer to kick him out of the system.
 
 
Roll Results:
 
* Dramatic Failure: kicked out of the network and can't access again for 24 hours. If  sysadmin contests task, make another Int + Computer roll to determine if admin manages to trace hacker / hacker brushes aside admins efforts and penetrates network.
 
* Exceptional Success: Your character has found vulnerability he can exploit; one-dice (cumulative) bonus to subsequent rolls.
 
 
===Traces===
 
:Dice Pool: Wit + Computer + equipment (- Proxy Servers)
 
:Action: Extended (Intruders Int + Computer; each roll represents 10 min)
 
The Admin may only take a maximum of rolls equal to the number of the intruder's rolls.
 
 
Roll Results:
 
* Dramatic Failure: Admin gets wrong location.
 
* Exceptional Success: Admin gets region of log-in; when intruder comes online again and scores and exceptional sucess Admin gets to know exact location.
 
 
===Encrypting or Decrypting Data===
 
:Dice Pool: Int + Investigation or Computer
 
:Action: Extended (5+ successes dependent on volume of information, each roll represents 30 min.)
 
Ciphers count as a kind of “information armor” when it comes to uncovering the underlying message. A simple homespun code such as a Caesar cipher (no Cost) subtracts one success from attempts to uncover the information, standard computer cryptography programs (Res •••) substract two, and top-of-the-line military technology (Res •••••) substracts three successes from the attacker’s attempt — and can’t be cracked without time and powerful computers.
 
 
Roll Results:
 
* Dramatic Failure:
 
* Exceptional Success:
 
 
Possible Penalties: Bureaucratic Communication (-1), Military Code (-2), Obscure Information (-4)
 
 
===Coding Programs===
 
:Dice Pool: Int + Computer + equipment
 
:Action: Extended (5+ successes, each roll represents 30 min.)
 
 
Basic Program Setup: Pow: 1, Fin: 1, Res: 1; Rank 1; Influence [] ••, Size 2; distribute 5 points between Pow, Fin and Res, choose Influence and a funtional effect for the Program (see Generic Programs for examples).
 
 
Additional Successes can be used for increases in Pow, Fin and Res on a one by one basis, three successes can imbue additional Special Functions (Numina), five additional successes can increase the Programs Rank by one.
 
 
Roll Results:
 
* Dramatic Failure:
 
* Exceptional Success:
 
 
-----
 
Suggested Equipment: High-performance computer (+1 to +3), broadband Internet access (+1), disk of scripts (+2), system passwords (+3)
 
Possible Penalties: Outdated computer system (-2), slow Internet connection (-3)
