Re: Motors

First: It's clear in the rules. So, . I'm sorry if you don't like it, but you have to learn to deal with it.

Second, <R45-A> specifically permits "all motors, actuators, and servos listed in the 2011 KOP Checklist", which includes 4 BaneBots and 2 CIMs. If you were limited to four total, <R45-A> would be invalid/contradicting.

They are different motors, governed by different parts of <R45>. CIMs are governed by <R45-C>, and BaneBots are governed by <R45-D>. <R45-C> allows up to 4 CIMs. <R45-D> allows up to 4 BaneBots in any combination of the 4 models in the KOP.
