Robot Combat
Robot Combat is the general description for when two or more machines fight each other, either via remote control or autonomously. It should be noted that remote control machines are not truly robots, as technically a 'Robot' must be autonomous.
Victory can be achieved via a set of rules determined in advance with regards to size, weight and weaponry (if any). Mostly this involves either disabling the opponent or knocking the opponent out of the playing field or arena.
The most well known Robot combat types and events are:
