VT Overkill 2.0 (NET Software)

Overkill attacks a Hostile ICE Construct (HICE) -- an actively
hostile guardian that can appear while you are connected to a NET
host, separate from a passage's ordinary protection. Overkill
itself never moves you.

While you are connected to a NET host, target the specific passage
where a HICE is active:

    run Overkill <direction>

You can also run it by its local file number.

A successful hit either wounds the construct (it survives, and may be
able to strike back at you) or, with enough hits, destroys it
outright. If there is nothing active there to attack, Overkill
tells you so and nothing happens.

Overkill needs 1 unit of free RAM while it runs and releases it
when the attempt finishes, win or lose. The stored copy stays on your
deck and can be run again.
