Boom, your bot's Health is the total damage it can take in a combat. Each attack dealt to a bot is affected by Defense (it's based off the Attack of the attacker, minus a multiple,of the square root of the defense of your bot), but the total damage is subtracted from your Health. Once your Health is zero, bye-bye bottie.
