personally when it comes to the Robots,the ones with Arms are more fascinating
the "Electro Magnetic" stlye Robot is fine,but i will prefer  my Robot with an
arm ..if you please...two would be even better

watching the Robot Adversary in action is quite fascinating
more so then the Electro Magnetic Robots
one becomes mesmorized as it grasps/places and captures pieces..
pawn promotions are a bit tricky if you dont already have the queen off the
board

and watching it try to distract you as you are pondering your move,with its
intentional erratic arm movements is a real howler

if you have the better position ,sometimes that arm and grasping claw come
MIGHTY close..too close for comfort..if you ask me..
