Re: Mecanum Wheels

I think the biggest problems are the robustness of anything but andymark HDs, and the fact that a lot of the defenses are going to be more manageable with more wheels. 6 or 8 wheel mecanum would be weird. On 6 i guess you could use omnis for the middle, and 8 would be omnis or another pair of mecanum. On any of those, things will get funky when you start losing points of contact, though.
