Re: Feeding to fully extended arm?

Do you break the plane of your opponent's zone? (<G32>)
Do you violate the 84" cylinder? (<R11>, <G40>)
If the answer to either of those is yes, have a penalty.

If you're pushed in, <G61>.

Advantages to that kind of arm: More flexibility in retrieval and placing of game objects.
