Re: Defense

Don,

I'm not sure escaping from the lane will be THAT easy. The space between the tower base and the wall is something like 36" wide. A narrowbot with bumpers ends up about 34.5" wide. So you've got a slightly tight squeeze there. I think you could hinder someone fairly well by blocking off the side escape and then chasing them down the rail till they either run into your own lane or have to try to turn to escape. As long as you're fast enough to chase them, I think you could keep them corralled pretty effectively.
