主机 Hosts

主机就像网域里的小型矩阵。从外面看，它是一个大型图标（icon），其形状经常设置成高楼或者其他能真实前往的地方。大多数主机浮在矩阵的虚拟天空中，但有一些主机（多半是商店、俱乐部、场馆，或者是其他和肉界（现实世界）场所高度相联的地方）就处在它的物理位置上。

劇透 -   :

Hosts in the Matrix are like a mini-Matrix on the grid. From the outside, it is a large icon, often sculpted to look like a building or some other place you can actually visit. Most are floating above the Matrix’s virtual airspace, but some are tethered to physical locations, mostly stores, clubs, local venues, and other places that are heavily associated with a particular site in meat space.

主机内部的虚拟空间和外面的网域是分开的。在主机外面不能直接和主机里面的图标互动，虽然还是可以发消息或者呼叫。如果进到主机里面，就可以看到里面的图标并且与之互动，但不能看到外面的图标（消息和呼叫之类的还是可以）。

劇透 -   :

The virtual space inside a host is separate from the outside grid. When you’re outside of a host, you can’t interact directly with icons inside it, although you can still send messages, make commcalls, and that sort of thing. Once you’re inside, you can see and interact with icons inside the host, but not outside (with the same caveat for messages, calls, etc.).

进入一个主机的时候，persona就会实际上进入主机的图标。有可能是通过一扇普通的门或者是传送门，也会有些主机直接让你穿过其外部贴图进入。主机内部的空间不受外面大小的限制，普遍来说，大小从一座大房子到一座大都市不等。主机的等级越高，其空间就越可能大，不过也不绝对。

劇透 -   :

When you enter a host, your persona actually enters the host icon. This can be through a door or other portal, but some hosts let you just pass through its outer skin. The inside of a host isn’t limited by its external size, and it usually ranges between the size of a large house and that of a large metroplex. The higher the host’s rating, the bigger it tends to be, but that’s not a hard-and-fast rule.

每个主机都位于一个特定的网域。就像矩阵的其他部分，主机可以从任何一个网域访问。主机是矩阵的一部分，所以只要你在主机里面，你究竟在哪个网域根本不重要。网域监管单位（GOD）追踪进出主机的记录，所以哪怕你进到一个主机里，GOD也还是在盯着你，虽然不太能准确监控你在里面干什么。

劇透 -   :

Each host is on a specific grid. Like the rest of the Matrix, a host can be accessed from any grid. Hosts are part of the Matrix, so once you’re inside a host, the grid you’re on doesn’t really matter. The Grid Overwatch Division tracks traffic to and from a host, which means it’s still watching you when you’ve entered a host, though it does not closely monitor what you do there.

主机并不依赖于GOD的保护。主机可以运行反入侵风险管理软件（简称IC）进行防御。这些程序的目的就是找出并击退黑客，甚至惩罚他们。IC无情又高效，如心脏病一般致命，而且慈悲到一见你就打空了弹夹。你可以击退IC，但主机永远可以派出更多，所以你并不能真正获胜。还是撑得久一点，把要做的活计做完。

劇透 -   :

Hosts don’t have to depend on GOD for protection. A host can run intrusion countermeasures, or IC, to defend itself. These programs are personas that seek out and repel or punish hackers. IC is ruthless and efficient, with the personality of a heart attack and the mercy of an empty clip in a firefight. You can fight off IC, but the host can always spawn more, so you can’t really win against IC. You can just hold it off long enough to get things done.

主机文档服务器 Host Archives

主机有一个叫做“文档服务器”的地方，用来储存未在使用的文件。文档服务器深藏在主机的代码里，对于普通的黑客来说都是无法访问的。如果你想要一个文档服务器里的文件，你最好还是想办法找一个已经在文件上有MARK的人先把它从文档服务器里带出来比较好。

劇透 -   :

Hosts have areas called archives that hold files that aren’t in use. File archives are deep in the host’s code, inaccessible to the average hacker. If you want an archived file, you’ll have to convince someone who already has a mark on the file to bring it out of the archive first.

主机属性 Host Attributes

主机拥有主机等级。和设备等级不同，主机等级是1至12。主机也有4项矩阵属性：攻击性、隐匿性、数据处理和防火墙。这四项属性的数值通常是（主机等级）、（主机等级+1）、（主机等级+2）和（主机等级+3），但对顺序没有要求。比方说，一个等级4的主机可能属性为攻击性5、隐匿性4、数据处理7、防火墙6。
主机和它的IC共享它的属性。

劇透 -   :

Hosts have a Host rating. Unlike the ratings of devices, the Host rating ranges from 1 to 12. Hosts also have all four Matrix attributes: Attack, Sleaze, Data Processing, and Firewall. The ratings of these attributes are usually (Host Rating), (Host Rating + 1), (Host Rating + 2), and (Host Rating + 3), in any order. For example, a Rating 4 host might have Attack 5, Sleaze 4, Data Processing 7, Firewall 6. A host’s attributes are shared by itself and its IC programs.

主机合围Host Convergence

GOD不能跟踪那些进入主机的persona，但它会一直盯着进出主机的记录。这意味着你的监控指数不会因为进入主机而改变，而且它还会在你在主机里的时候持续累积。如果你在主机里到了被合围的监视指数，你不会像在外面那样马上被攻击并且被踹出矩阵（监视指数与合围 p.231）。但主机会在你身上放3个MARK并且派出IC。
如果你在开始合围后离开主机，这个网域的次GOD会立马合围你。你还是直接从主机里弹出吧。

劇透 -   :

GOD doesn’t track personas inside a host, but it still keeps tabs on the traffic to and from the host. This means your Overwatch Score doesn’t change when you enter a host, and it continues to accumulate while you’re in the host. If you’re in a host when you reach convergence, you’re not burned and dumped like you are out on the grid (Overwatch Score and Convergence, p. 231). Instead, the host gets three marks on you and starts deploying IC.
If you leave a host after convergence, the grid’s demiGOD converges on you immediately. You’re better off just jacking out from the host.

反入侵风险管理软件 Intrusion Countermeasures

反入侵风险管理软件，简称IC（发音为“ice”），是一种由主机运行的程序。这些程序冷酷无情，其目的只有一条：防护主机不受攻击。

劇透 -   :

Intrusion countermeasures, or IC (pronounced “ice”), is a type of program that runs in hosts. The purpose of an IC program is to defend its host from attack, and it tends to be cold-heartedly ruthless about it.

每个IC以persona的形式出现，拥有自己的CM和主动性值。它应该被视作使用热sim，因此在矩阵战斗中共得到4D6的主动性骰。IC使用其主机的四项矩阵属性。主机内部的IC和主机共享MARK，所以如果一个IC在你身上打了一个MARK，他们都会得到一个MARK。类似的，主机和IC持续分享信息，如果主机盯上了你，IC也会盯上你。这对你可不是什么好事。

劇透 -   :

Each IC program has a persona with its own Condition Monitor and Initiative Score. It should be treated as if it is in hot-sim, so it gets a total of 4D6 Initiative Dice in Matrix combat. IC uses the Matrix attributes of its host. The IC in a host and the host itself share marks, so if one IC program is slapped with a mark, they all get one, as does the host itself. Similarly, the IC and host instantly share spotting information, so if the host spots you, so does all its IC. Which usually turns out not well for you.

一个IC就已经成了威胁，但要是一群IC协同合作，你离死就不远了。一旦主机开始投放IC，快点弄完手头的活儿，准备跑路吧。

劇透 -   :

Individual IC programs alone can be a threat, but multiple IC programs working together can be deadly. Once the host starts to launch IC, it’s time to finish up and buzz out of there.

安保反应 Security Response

如果主机发现你在做一些未授权的、非法的勾当，甚至只是它不喜欢的事情，它就会通知其主人（或者被其任命的人，被雇佣的安保蜘蛛）并且派它所拥有的IC对付入侵者。一个主机可以在每个战斗回合开始时投放一个IC，主机最多可以同时运行与其等级相等数量的IC，但不能同时运行两个或以上同种类的IC。当IC受到了足够砖化的伤害，它就会崩溃并且消失。但只要主机愿意，下一个战斗轮开始时就可以运行这个IC的另一份副本。

劇透 -   :

When a host spots you doing something unauthorized, illegal, or just something it doesn’t like, it informs its owner (or its owner’s designee, like an employed security spider) and launches whatever IC programs it has to fight off the intruder. A host can launch one IC program per Combat Turn, at the beginning of each Combat Turn. The host can have up to its rating in IC programs running at once, and it can’t launch more than one of each type of IC program at once. When an IC program takes enough damage to brick it, it crashes and vanishes from the host. The host can then run another copy of the IC at the start of the next Combat Turn if it wants to.

大多数主机不会让IC一直运行。IC无情又高效，却并不怎么聪明。无穷无尽的IC带来的安全性虽然很好，但因IC的错误导致的伤亡诉讼却要付出巨大的代价。再加上主机完全可以在麻烦刚开始的时候就投放IC，一般来说，主机只会留最无害的巡逻IC运行不停。

劇透 -   :

Most hosts don’t have intrusion countermeasures running all the time. While IC is mercilessly efficient, it’s not very bright. The added safety of omnipresent IC is outweighed by the cost of paying (or covering up) wrongful injury and death lawsuits, especially since IC can be deployed in seconds at the first sign of trouble. Typically, the only IC that remains active 24/7 is Patrol IC, which is mostly harmless to the innocent.

IC种类 Types of IC

IC只有一个目的，就是找出、削弱、击退甚至摧毁入侵者。IC攻击时的骰值是主机等级x2，界限是主机的攻击属性。攻击是一个复杂动作，而抵抗攻击的骰池则由IC的种类决定。就像所有攻击行为，IC失败的攻击会造成对自己的伤害。IC永远被视作合法的，它的攻击不会提高它的监视指数。

劇透 -   :

IC exists to find, disable, destroy, and/or repel intruders. IC rolls the Host rating x 2 for any attacks, limited by the Host’s Attack rating. The attack is a Complex Action, and the Dice Pool to resist the attack is listed with each type of IC. As with all Attack actions, a failed attack causes damage to the IC. IC is always considered to be legal, so its attacks never give it an Overwatch Score.

蚀甲 Acid

攻击：主机等级x2[攻击性] 对抗 意志+防火墙
蚀甲IC盯着你的保护性软件并意图覆写它。当它在攻击中得到一个或以上的净成功数，它降低1点你的防火墙属性。如果你的防火墙属性已经被降到0，它会造成和净成功数相等的矩阵伤害。直到你重启设备，这一负面效果将一直持续和累积。

劇透 -   :

Attack: Host Rating x 2 [Attack] v. Willpower + Firewall
Acid IC targets and overwrites your protective software. When it gets 1 or more net hits on its attack, it reduces your Firewall by 1. If your Firewall has been reduced to 0 already, it causes 1 DV Matrix damage per net hit on the attack. The reduction is cumulative and lasts until you reboot the targeted device.

木马 Binder

攻击：主机等级x2[攻击性] 对抗 意志+数据处理
木马IC会损坏你的基础操作系统。当它在攻击中得到一个或以上的净成功数，它降低1点你的数据处理属性。如果你的数据处理属性已经被降到0，它会造成和净成功数相等的矩阵伤害。直到你重启设备，这一负面效果将一直持续和累积。
*译注：译名存疑。查了一圈wiki，binder和电脑网络相关的几个词条和操作系统的关系都不大……猜想可能指的是file binder这个用来造木马病毒的程序，故而如此翻译。

劇透 -   :

Attack: Host Rating x 2 [Attack] v. Willpower + Data Processing
Binder IC corrupts your base operating system. When it gets 1 or more net hits on its attack, it reduces your Data Processing by 1. If your Data Processing has been reduced to 0 already, it causes 1 DV Matrix damage per net hit on the attack. The reduction is cumulative and lasts until you reboot the targeted device.

黑IC Black IC

攻击：主机等级x2[攻击性] 对抗 直觉+防火墙
黑IC是市场上所有IC程序中最危险的。运行它的主机根本不想击退你——它要你死。当黑IC攻击成功时，它会链接锁定你，还会造成等同于攻击性点数的矩阵伤害（每个净成功数+1伤害，每个MARK+2伤害），同时还会附加等量的生物反馈伤害。

劇透 -   :

Attack: Host Rating x 2 [Attack] v. Intuition + Firewall
Black IC is the most feared intrusion countermeasures program on the market. The hosts that run it don’t want you repelled—they want you dead. When it hits, Black IC link-locks you. It also causes (Attack) DV Matrix damage (+1 DV per net hit and +2 DV per mark on the target) along with an equal amount of biofeedback damage.

冲击波 Blaster

攻击：主机等级x2[攻击性] 对抗 逻辑+防火墙
冲击波IC又被称为灰IC。当冲击波攻击成功时，它会链接锁定你，还会造成等同于攻击性点数的矩阵伤害（每个净成功数+1伤害，每个MARK+2伤害），同时还会附加等量的生物反馈伤害。

劇透 -   :

Attack: Host Rating x 2 [Attack] v. Logic + Firewall
Also known as Grey IC, a Blaster IC program’s attack causes (Attack) DV Matrix damage, +1 DV per net hit and +2 DV per mark on the target, with biofeedback damage. The biofeedback from a Blaster program can only cause Stun damage. A single successful attack also link-locks the target.

崩溃 Crash

攻击：主机等级x2[攻击性] 对抗 直觉+防火墙
如果崩溃IC在你身上有一个MARK（通过其主机）并且攻击成功，你的随机某个程序会崩溃。因此而崩溃的程序直到重启前不能再次运行。

劇透 -   :

Attack: Host Rating x 2 [Attack] v. Intuition + Firewall
If Crash IC has a mark on you (through its host) and hits, one of your programs crashes, selected at random. Programs crashed this way can’t be run again until after a reboot.

干扰 Jammer

攻击：主机等级x2[攻击性] 对抗 意志+攻击性
干扰IC让你自己的防火墙对付你自己的攻击。当它在攻击中得到一个或以上的净成功数，它降低1点你的攻击性属性。如果你的攻击性属性已经被降到0，它会造成和净成功数相等的矩阵伤害。直到你重启设备，这一负面效果将一直持续和累积。

劇透 -   :

Attack: Host Rating x 2 [Attack] v. Willpower + Attack
Jammer IC turns your firewall against your own attacks. When it gets 1 or more net hits on its attack, it reduces your Attack by 1. If your Attack has been reduced to 0 already, it causes 1 DV Matrix damage per net hit on the attack. The reduction is cumulative and lasts until you reboot the targeted device.

杀手 Killer

攻击：主机等级x2[攻击性] 对抗 直觉+防火墙
杀手IC是一个简单高效的电子战程序，会造成等同于攻击性点数的矩阵伤害（每个净成功数+1伤害，每个MARK+2伤害）。

劇透 -   :

Attack: Host Rating x 2 [Attack] v. Intuition + Firewall
This IC is a simple but effective cybercombat program that causes (Attack) DV Matrix damage (+1 DV per net hit and +2 DV per mark) on the target with each successful attack.

记号笔 Marker

攻击：主机等级x2[攻击性] 对抗 意志+隐匿性
记号笔IC安装小型蠕虫程序来扰乱你的数据流。当它在攻击中得到一个或以上的净成功数，它降低1点你的隐匿性属性。如果你的隐匿性属性已经被降到0，它会造成和净成功数相等的矩阵伤害。直到你重启设备，这一负面效果将一直持续和累积。

劇透 -   :

Attack: Host Rating x 2 [Attack] v. Willpower + Sleaze
Marker IC installs tiny worm programs that mess with your datastreams. When it gets 1 or more net hits on its attack, it reduces your Sleaze by 1. If your Sleaze has been reduced to 0 already, it causes 1 DV Matrix damage per net hit on the attack. The reduction is cumulative and lasts until you reboot the targeted device.

巡逻 Patrol

攻击：不可
巡逻IC相对于其他IC而言，更像一个代理。它的任务是在主机里巡逻，扫描人们的MARK并且运用矩阵感知寻找非法行为。虽然放置MARK是非法的，但只是拥有一个并不是。只要你拥有一个MARK，你就会被视为合法用户。巡逻IC不会攻击，但它与主机共享信息。因为巡逻IC没有攻击行为，它不会在失败时承受矩阵伤害。大多数主机都有巡逻IC，并且时刻让它们运行。

劇透 -   :

Attack: n/a
Patrol IC acts more like an agent than other intrusion countermeasures. Its job is to patrol a host, scanning people’s marks and looking for illegal activity using the Matrix Perception action on all targets in the host. While the act of placing a mark is an illegal activity, the act of simply having a mark is not. Once you have the mark, you are considered a legitimate user. Patrol IC has no attack, but it shares its information with its parent host. Since the Patrol IC doesn’t use Attack actions, it doesn’t take Matrix damage when it fails. Most hosts have Patrol IC and keep it running all the time.

探头 Probe

攻击：主机等级x2[攻击性] 对抗 直觉+防火墙
探头IC的任务是帮其他主机给侵入者放置MARK。每次成功的“攻击”都意味着放置给对方放置一个MARK，最多放置3个。

劇透 -   :

Attack: Host Rating x 2 [Attack] v. Intuition + Firewall
The task of Probe IC is to mark intruders for other IC. Every successful “attack” means another mark for the host and its IC on the target, up to the maximum of three marks.

扰乱 Scramble

攻击：主机等级x2[攻击性] 对抗 意志+防火墙
扰乱IC断开你和矩阵的联接并且强制你重启。如果这个IC攻击你的时候主机在你身上放置了三个MARK，你就会立马重启，并且如果你在VR模式下，还会承受转储休克伤害。

劇透 -   :

Attack: Host Rating x 2 [Attack] v. Willpower + Firewall
Scramble IC nukes your connection to the Matrix and forces you to reboot. If the host has three marks on you when this IC hits you, you reboot immediately, taking dumpshock if you were in VR.

电椅 Sparky

攻击：主机等级x2[攻击性] 对抗 直觉+防火墙
电椅IC，又被叫做“变态杀手”，是杀手IC的升级版。它会造成等同于攻击性点数的矩阵伤害（每个净成功数+1伤害，每个MARK+2伤害），同时还会附加等量的生物反馈伤害。
*译注：查了一下Sparky相关，wiki上说到old sparky是美国一些州对电椅的昵称，猜想应该是取这个意思

劇透 -   :

Attack: Host Rating x 2 [Attack] v. Intuition + Firewall
Sparky IC is also known as “Psycho Killer,” an upgraded version of the popular Killer IC. It causes (Attack) DV Matrix damage (+1 DV per net hit and +2 DV per mark on the target) with biofeedback damage.

沼泽 Tar Baby

攻击：攻击：主机等级x2[攻击性] 对抗 逻辑+防火墙
当沼泽IC攻击成功时，它会链接锁定上你。如果你已经被链接锁定了，就会在你身上放置一个MARK，最多三个。
*译注：Wiki对Tar Baby的几个解释中，与此处的含义较为接近的是：“In modern usage, ‘tar baby’ refers to any ‘sticky situation’ that is only aggravated by additional involvement with it.” 意思大概是越动陷得越深，所以意译为沼泽。

劇透 -   :

Attack: Host Rating x 2 [Attack] v. Logic + Firewall
The Tar Baby IC link-locks you when it hits. If you’re already link-locked, it puts a mark on you, up to a maximum of three marks.

追踪 Track

攻击：主机等级x2[攻击性] 对抗 意志+隐匿性
追踪IC追踪你的图标和碟板之间的数据流。如果这个IC攻击成功并且主机在你身上有两个或以上的MARK，主机（及其拥有者）会得到你的物理位置，并且通常会立刻报告给现实世界的权威机构。

劇透 -   :

Attack: Host Rating x 2 [Attack] v. Willpower + Sleaze
Track IC follows the datastreams between your icon and your deck. If this IC hits and the host has two marks or more on you, the host (and its owners) discover your physical location, which is usually reported to real-world authorities immediately.
