Proposal: Hostile Takeovers
Add a subrule to “Teams and Targets {I}” named “Attacks {M}” with the following text:
A non-Mastermind Participant may, as a Heist Action, perform an Attack as an atomic action with the following steps:
* Select a non-Mastermind Participant other than yourself, called the Victim.
* When making the roll in the Dice Roller as part of the Heist Action, include the name of the Victim in the comment for that roll.
* Make a blog post with the Story category where the title is “X attacks Y”, X is your player name, and Y is the player name of the Victim. This post is known as the Threat, and you are considered the Attacker in that Threat.A Participant may not be selected as the Victim of a Threat if they are the Victim in another Threat that was posted less than 96 hours ago.
If a Participant is the Victim in a Threat, and that Threat has been posted within the last 48 hours, that Participant may, as a Heist Action, perform a Defense in that Threat. A Defense is an atomic action with the following steps:
* When making the roll in the Dice Roller as part of the Heist Action, include the name of the Attacker in the comment for that roll.
* Post a comment in that Threat containing the text “I defend myself”.A Takeover is the following atomic action:
* The Attacker in a Threat swaps their Target with the Target of that Threat’s Victim.
* The Attacker in a Threat posts to that Threat with a comment containing the text “Attack successful”Once an Attacker has performed a Takeover, the Threat in which that Takeover was performed is no longer considered a Threat.
As a Heist Action, the Attacker in a Threat may perform a Takeover for a Threat if all of the following are true:
* It has been more than 48 hours since that Threat was posted.
* The Victim in that Threat has not performed a successful Defense since that Threat was posted.
* That Attacker has not performed a Takeover for that Threat.
A bit of the old ultraviolence.

“that Participant may, as a Heist Action, perform a Defense” - what is a Defense?
