These Robots run the latest Artificial Intelligence (AI 2.0a), but they are still not quite as smart as us humans. I'm assuming you are a human, please forgive me if you are ... er something else...

Anyway another advantage is that you get about a 2 second start on the robots, while they are powering up, but all too soon its "Robots On" and you need to move. Make the most of the vital few seconds to target the most powerful and difficult robots first.
