Yeah Snoopy, we used a big ol' 12V DC 18 amp-hour Exide deep cycle battery. Some of the motors were provided by FIRST--we ended up using more motors than they gave us, but they had to be of the same type as those provided. The motor you can see attached to the brush wheel is actually made by Fisher ...

It's somewhat discouraged. ;) The way the competition works, a robot on the opposing team might actually be on YOUR team during the next round. So, it's usually in your best interests to keep most of the robots healthy. On the other hand, that robot can do some SERIOUS damage to whatever it hits... ...

The game is rather complex, but I'll describe it as best I can here. Pretty much, there are two \"Alliances\" on the field. Each alliance consists of 3 teams, each with their own robot. The playing field is about 54' x 26', with goals and a ramp at either end of the 54' span. There is a go...

It's also very, very important to note that all of the killing that is going on is in the Old Testament.
