In Infinity CodeOne, infowar and cyberwarfare tasks, defined as Hacking, falls upon the Hackers’ shoulders, those Troopers equipped with Hacking Devices.

NOTE

Getting Started with Hacking

According to their nature, Hacking Programs allow the Hacker to act in an aggressive or defensive manner, support other Troopers, interact with scenery, etc.


REMEMBER

When making your Army Lists in Infinity Army, a summary of the Hacking Programs will be included, in the same way that a summary of your Troopers’ weapons is included.


Hacking Devices and Hacking Programs: Characteristics

Hacking Devices and Hacking Programs have the following characteristics:

They benefit, if applicable, from the target's Targeted State.


Hacking Area

This term refers to the Area of Effect of Hacking Programs. In Infinity CodeOne a Hacker's Hacking Area matches their Zone of Control.


Key to the Hacking Programs Quick Reference Chart

Each Hacking Program grants a series of MODs and advantages when used, that are reflected in charts listing following information:

  • Attack MOD. A MOD that is applied to the user's WIP Attribute.
  • Opponent's MOD. A MOD that is applied to an enemy Trooper's Attribute when performing a Face to Face Roll.
  • Damage. The value used to determine the Damage when applying a successful Hacking Program Roll. Unless otherwise stated, the Attribute used in the Saving Roll to resist Damage from a Hacking Program is BTS.
  • Burst. The number of dice the Active Player must roll when declaring the Hacking Program. When the B value is higher than 1, it may be concentrated on a single target or be divided among several targets.
Remember that in the Reactive Turn the B value is generally 1, unless modified by a rule or Skill.
  • Target. The Troop Type that can be targeted by the Hacking Program.
  • Type of Skill. Indicates the type of Skill (Entire Order, Short Skill, ARO, etc.) that must be spent to use the Hacking Program.
  • Special. Indicates the special effects that the Hacking Program's user may apply. This section may also indicate a State that will be imposed on the target, or the type of Ammunition and Traits that may apply.

Unless otherwise stated, the range of every Program is always the Hacker's Hacking Area.
