Hiyas,

I found this corewar yesterday playing with ftp. I had heard of it
before but had never seen it. It is rather interesting and I am trying
to learn more about redcode. So far I have tried combining imp and dwarf
I got a program good at surviving but not good at killing. I wanted it
to go forward as a normal imp but also split and throw dat bombs behind
me as I go forward. Please explain to me how to code this stuff. I have
no experience in assembly. What follows is the program that I sort of
put together.

;redcode
;name orc
;author Timothy Echeandia
;strategy Well I am rather new to corewar so I tried combining imp
;and dwarf. You get a more deadly imp an thereby the name orc. I am
;running corewars the X11 version and it survived against xtc. I think
;that this warrior more survives and ties than kills off. Right now
;killing off is giving me problems.

orc	mov	orc,	orc+1
bomb    dat     #0,     #0
bomber  add     #-4,    bomb
	mov     bomb,   @bomb
	jmp     bomber
	end	orc
