I don't exactly agree. I really feel it has to be a package deal. For example, what if a robot is solely meant for defensive strategies? In a game like this, that might almost be advantageous! That robot could push other robots around during the opponent's offensive round and during its own alliance's offensive round, it can clear the way for its partners by holding back the opponents robots that are on defense. The robot doesn't have to be extraordinary, just good at what it needs to do. If things are planned out well (with good
strategy), then this robot might be on a winning alliance.
Now this may not happen in real life but I'm just trying to show that it's not just the stuff you have, it's the brains behind it. They go hand in hand, and I personally feel, if anything, the brain might be more useful in a game like this.
