Sadly, its been stated by the DLOH, and its in the FAQ somewhere that
all runner vs. runner combat takes place outside of the safehouse...
thus your runner with guard is never present to soak any of the damages.
Its the same way with bar fight, or any other card that allows you to
engage in runner vs. runner combat. Alot of the list members use the
house rule that you can use the bodyguard to protect your runners from
any damage as long as they are not turned or from damage that would come
from inside the runner like decking, magic, etc... related events. It
really is up to you on how you want to handle it.
