It's the quals at the Magnolia Regional. You're busy reffing a match when Blueabot1 executes a
Tortuga maneuver on one of the RedaDefenses. Shortly afterwards, Blueabot2 follows suit on a different RedaDefense. Seeing this, Blueabot3 charges out of their own courtyard by the shortest possible route to try to free one or both of its partners... and promptly Tortugas in its own Moat. (Shoulda gone over the Berm, right?
)
RedaBot1, seeing this, exits the Blue Courtyard via the Group C defense and pushes first Blueabot1, then Blueabot2, gently over the RedaDefenses into the Red Courtyard, then the RedAlliance avoids using the Moat until Blueabot2 picks Blueabot3 out of it with a good solid shove. The crowd goes wild!
As a ref, You Make The Call! A rule (or more than one) may have been violated here. Which rule, and do you call the foul or not?
