Week 7: Admiral vs Flipcake

Flipcake: https://www.advancedrobotcombat.com/vie ... =15#p71412

I should have the wedging advantage here: Flipcake has the long edge of its flipper, I've got the same but also the two pointy bits of Admiral's chassis on either side which are being pressed down by the weight of my whole 2WD robot. I'm going to count on that to get me under by heading in in a straightforward manner and just sliding right underneath Flipcake.

Then, of course, comes the flip. Admiral's flipper is twice as powerful as Flipcake's, powerful enough to send its opponent out of the arena. That will be my goal. It'll take several flips and some luck to get Flipcake to the right spot for it, but I'll be persistent.

If Admiral gets flipped, I'll right it with its flipper and get back on the offense. But Flipcake will need to get pretty lucky to get underneath me: it's not going to get any flanking happening when we're the same speed and I'm constantly on the attack.

GL TBR!
