rules
you decide how to attack a car with either your canons,
or battering ram, e.g. if your canons are 7 and the other car is 6
you have the advantage and they lose 1 point
the other car can avoid your attack with either speed or bullet
proofing
if you choose to use canons, the other car can stop your attack with
bullet proofing which goes down 1
and your canons go down 1.
if you choose Battering ram, the other car can stop your attack with
speed which goes down 1
once your opponents car is out of bulletproofing and the opponent
decides to use canons then they lose a life
the same goes for speed for battering ram attacks
once there car is out of lives there worth goes to you money
when you have destroyed all cars, or they destroy you the game is over
