Re: Fully breach multiple defenses or cross all defenses first?

Thoughts?
Is this from the perspective on alliance or a single robot? If per-robot, I might start on the defenses that are harder for my partners. Also, am I shooting boulders into the tower after crossing?

If you damage a single defense (cross twice consecutively) you might not have to turn and move to a different defense, instead just crossing, returning, crossing, and returning again, then moving sideways to the next one.
