The Assault on Castle Keinerrobotikstein

(This is a sequel of sorts to the Defeat EVIL DEAN KAMEN thread from a few weeks ago. Please read that thread if you haven't already for some backstory on this new challenge.)

PLEASE READ THE RULES
[An incoming transmission from Grey Mann, the Leader of the FIRSTerosian Resistance.]
RED ALERT
EVIL DEAN KAMEN has become enraged by our endless attacks on His personage and has sealed Himself deep within his impenetrable CASTLE KEINERROBOTIKSTEIN! From the highest tower in His Castle, EVIL DEAN KAMEN has begun spreading his dark power across FIRSTeros, corrupting everything it touches and plunging the land into eternal darkness where no robots can ever survive. I have taken it upon myself to organize a resistance force and, once the Resistance is large enough, we shall lay seige to CASTLE KEINERROBOTIKSTEIN and defeat EVIL DEAN KAMEN once and for all. It will be tough, as EVIL DEAN KAMEN has many evil monsters and corrupted robots guarding his Castle. But regardless of that, we will persist! FIRSTeros shall be freed from EVIL DEAN KAMEN'S control and light shall once again reign free! So godspeed to you all! If you are brave enough, meet me at the gates of CASTLE KEINERROBOTIKSTEIN and we shall do this together!
[End transmission]

Here are the rules:
-This whole game is turn-based, meaning each PLAYER can attack or revive a fallen comrade precisely once every ROUND.
-A ROUND is defined as each summarizing post by the GM (Grey Mann).
-Almost every opponent you encounter will be a corrupted duplicate of a certain team's robot from some year.
-All opponents you encounter will have three stats, Strength, Mobility and Durability.
-Each stat is pretty self-explanatory and determine how the robot fights and how easy it is to take down.
-Every few encounters there will be a Miniboss. These Minibosses are upgraded versions of previously encountered enemies and are significantly stronger than their lesser counterparts.
-It is possible for individual PLAYERS or ROBOTS of the RESISTANCE to be defeated in battle. If this occurs, one of two things will need to happen before that PLAYER/ROBOT can rejoin the battle.
--One: If the fallen is a ROBOT, a PLAYER MUST take a turn to make repairs on the ROBOT. This is the ONLY way a fallen ROBOT can rejoin the battle.
--Two: If the fallen is a Human, they can either:
---Be revived by another PLAYER. This consumes to reviver's turn.
---Or, the fallen Human will revive by themselves at the beginning of the next encounter.
-You, as PLAYERS, three main things you can do each ROUND:
--You can attack, in the same matter as the orginal Defeat EVIL DEAN KAMEN thread.
--You can pilot a ROBOT. This protects you from damage and lets you possibly deal more damage than if you were to attack directly. Note that in order to pilot a ROBOT, you must take a turn to begin or stop piloting the ROBOT. When the ROBOT is destroyed, you automatically stop piloting it.
--Finally, you can revive/repair fallen PLAYERS and ROBOTS, as detailed above.
-Each allied ROBOT brought into the battle will be given its own stats similar to the opponent robots.
-You can only bring ONE ROBOT into the battle each turn, and you can choose to start piloting the ROBOT in the same turn.
-You can only pilot ONE ROBOT at once. No multitasking.
-Doing ANYTHING in a turn, from reviving a fallen comrade to attacking with a ROBOT, consumes your turn, meaning you cannot do anything else until the next round. If you attack twice in a round, only the first attack will be counted.
-If you have any other questions, please post them alongside your attack.

So, without further ado, let us begin!

Encounter 1, Outside the gates of CASTLE KEINERROBOTIKSTEIN:
EVIL DEAN KAMEN'S Advance Force consisting of:

The Mk 1.02 G3AR-H3AD V. 2.00.8:
Strength: 2
Mobility: 6
Durability: 3

The Mk 1.48 R0B0WR4NGL3R V. 2.008:
Strength: 3
Mobility: 5
Durability: 3

FIGHT!

Re: The Assault on Castle Keinerrobotikstein

I dig a trench and put all the dirt on MY side of the trench. Both robots land in said trench. I put all the dirt back in.

I start chucking large amounts of metal and wood shavings inside one of the robot's (doesn't matter which one) electronics.
