Re: Pick Your Defense
A: Cheval de Frise - from my perspective on Team Indiana for Ri3D, we had to take more time manipulating the Shovel the Fries in order to traverse. The Portcullis wasn't as tough to manipulate and drive under.

B: Ramparts - While the moat can maybe catch a couple of wheel bases, the Ramparts will ultimately prove to be the most upsetting defense. You don't come out straight after driving through the Ramparts.

C: Sally Port - Both of these defenses can be easily traversed with some teamwork. But, if we're just talking one robot, the Sally Port is more awkward to manipulate.

D: Rock Wall - 4.5" ground clearance vs. small increments (3" or <) rough terrain. Rock wall is the easy choice here.
