>>>> this came up in a game tonite. if my decker uses black hammer to start a
"matrix combat" with another decker, does the target decker (one being attacked)
turn, like they would in a normal combat (like with barfight, zzone, etc)? also, are the
deckers involved in the matrix combat considered to be in the safehouse, ie can someone
use guard on them?<<<

Wasn't there a ruling that you couldn't use Guard against damage done
through the Matrix? Or am I imagining things? Maybe the ruling was that
"normal" armor cards can't block damage done through the Matrix.

Anyway, you couldn't use Guard in the situation above because the two
Deckers would be involved in Runner vs. Runner combat. The Runner with
Guard wouldn't be present.
