Re: Launchers VS Arms

What about a launching arm?

It will be all about the speed that you can grab and then launch the ball.
I have seen some arms that can do that fast too.
We plan to raise our arm and the shoot the ball on the fly (cross your fingers.)

I think this will be a great game to watch with the different designs all doing the same thing all the while avoiding speed bots racing around the track and defensive bots hording balls and getting in the way of hurdlers.
