Basically, how are robots going thru defenses counted? Our thoughts were that that's a lot of counting and details for match personnel to input into FMS.

Thanks!!

Double check me by re-reading the rules, but ...

I believe the door (in this case) can be held open by one robot and the defense weakened with passage by another alliance member. However, the door must be reset (the door must close) and then reopened before another robot can weaken it further.
