Re: Mini Bot - displeasure

After my initial negative reaction to the refined Minibot rules, which was probably more due to the fact that it meant a lot of work in our fairly aggressive prototyping schedule was wasted, I don't really have many problems with the Minibot rules now*. After thinking it over and running calculations, I'm very confident we can build a very competitive Minibot under the new rules.

* The only remaining issue I have is that the Minibot is of such importance to the game, that a minimum of one (or two) Tetrix motors and the Tetrix battery should have been included in the KoP.
