Penalty for knocking over stacks of crates?

[nathanwalters]

G18 ROBOTS may not contact anything beyond the STEP. Momentary contact as a result of ROBOT interaction over the STEP is
an exception to this rule. If a ROBOT becomes inoperable or “stuck” while some portion of the ROBOT is extending beyond the
STEP, the ROBOT will not receive multiple FOULS.

VIOLATION: FOUL. If egregious or strategic, RED CARD.

So yeah, that's illegal and will get you a red card.

On top of the Foul.


As a ref, that would be contact (foul) that is strategic (denying points) AND egregious (look, you just reached many feet beyond the Step, so you had to be doing this intentionally and blatantly). If you don't get a red card, you need a new head ref!
