No turret. We intend to be quick enough to score before anyone can push out of the way. I don't know how well that will work, though.

If we can't score quick enough, then you are right, but if a team is playing some hard defense on us, they'll just push out of the range of the arm even with the turret.

Can't wait to see the rest of it!
Let me tell you. Neither can I.
