Re: field blocking?
This would be extremely hard to implement IMHO. Not only would your arm have to be super strong to keep from breaking off your robot, but think about how much leverage the other robot would have on your arm. If they backed off and rammed i, your entire robot would probably spin in a circle, letting them through. You would have to anchor somehow, and I can't think of a legal way to do that at the moment, although perhaps there is one.
