| − | Component armor is the armor that the builder applies ''outside'' the chassis of the bot, made from components (as name implies). While component armor can be made of virtually anything that has hitpoints, components best suited for this function are [[Ram Plate]]s and [[Snowplow]]s for stock robots, and various [[Metal sheets]] for [[DSL]]. These defensive components usually have a lot of hit points for their weight. Additional armor can be used to protect [[motors]] and [[wheels]] as well. See also [[Caster armor]] and [[Narmor]]. | + | Component armor is the armor that the builder applies ''outside'' the chassis of the bot, made from components (as name implies).
