Re: an evil, desperate, ramp strategy
hmmm well i personally am in favor of defence. but dont go knocking people over. thats bad karma and bad taste, just get in their way of going up the ramp in the first place.

i had to tell my team, the ramp is great but stoping the other guys is better. considure this situation: your team has 3 bots on your ramp, theirs has 3 bots on theirs. what happens? they cancel each other out! dont get me wrong, you will get a nice load of points, but you wont go ahead. instead, go ahead and push them ONTO your ramp, or just stop them from going onto theirs.

we built our frame with a 6.5 inch clearence to make it up the ramp, with 4 all wheel cim-dewalt transmission drive, so we SHOULD be able to make it up, only we could do a freaking backflip... so i might be doing defence myself.
