Guard is a Warrior only command which is used to attempt to prevent people from using one particular exit.

It costs 25gp for each 5 second period that someone is attempting to evade the exit you are guarding.

Whenever someone attempts to use an exit which is blocked the fighting.defence.blocking of the person doing the blocking is checked against the fighting.defence.dodging of the person trying to get past.

It is possible to guard an exit against everyone or only some defined by name, gender, race and adjectives.

Note that while you can guard an exit against specific players, you cannot guard an exit against specific NPCs (e.g. "troll 2") but only against types of NPCs (e.g. "chickens", "young trolls"). Note also that gender-based guarding (e.g. "men") will match male non-human NPCs as well as male human NPCs.

You cannot guard more than one exit at the same time. You can stop guarding an exit to guard another.

It is also used in CTF to protect the flagpole.
