Re: 6 CIMs and 4 MiniCIMs - Will they stay?

Let me just say this: 6-CIM drivetrains can break the main 120 amp breaker if they are stalled. With a 6-CIM drive, you're essentially giving good defenders a way literally shut your robot down.

As for continuing to have insane amounts of power like we did this year? I sure hope it continues, but I certainly wouldn't take this much raw power for granted. It obviously depends on the game, but I'd bet on 4 CIMs and 2 Mini-CIMs for next year.
