What I really want is something with intimidation value; what if you make
a puny Attack 2 program and stick LOADS and LOADS of junk code at the

THAT would fool them... execute it and everything slows to a crawl, and
your persona is suddenly wielding a scimitar the size of a flagpost...
what would YOU do about that?)
