SCALING THE TOWER

Does anyone know if my robot can scale the tower only if the tower is damaged (my alliance made the tower weaken - 8 goals)? Please help. I don't find it at the manual.

Re: SCALING THE TOWER

You can scale the tower even if it is not damaged. You are not allowed to Capture the tower if it is not damaged (capturing gains you 1 RP)

The rules are very clear about what exactly is required for scaling the tower:

B. has all of its BUMPERS fully above the height of the low GOALS.

Nothing other then those requirements plays into the 15 scaling points.
