Just a quick clarification on <G19> (under my interpretation):
1. First of all DEPLOYMENT (as defined in the introduction) is:
Quote:

the act of positioning a MINIBOT on a TOWER. DEPLOYMENT starts when the MINIBOT breaks the vertical projection of the TOWER BASE circumference during the END GAME.
|
Therefore <G19> means that your hostbot (your main robot) is allowed to place the minibot on the tower, but
after deployment the minibot must be completely autonomous.
Autonomous basically means it can't have external commands (I believe - it definitely cannot have human control). Whether or not it can communicate with your hostbot is solved by the fact that there is no way of doing so with the allowed parts and also that there is little reason to do so - if the minibot is running code off the hostbot, it might as well run its own code.
Hope this clears that up.
Also, as a general thing, people sometimes overlook the glossary in the introduction when reading the rules.
Any word in the rules that is all in capitals is in the glossary. Check there first.
