I decided that we're not gonna try and videotape conventional full-scale skirmishes due to lack of manpower. Instead we'll try 1-on-1 touraments. However, 1HK is, IMO, pretty boring and does not allow for much variation since 1.) high-powered weapons like CPS2000/2500 have no major advantage over lower-powered weapons since getting hit at all kills you, and 2.) same case for those who like to wear body armor: you're dead whether the armor blocks it or not.
So in order to do any kind of structured soakfest tourneys, we need some new rule system, which will mostly likely use a judge panel. I might go ahead and use the BattleBots Judging Guidelines as a template since the system is most similar to what I'm going for.
The main issue is rating damage, because obviously in this case, damage is WAY trickier to measure, especially if one or both competitors are wearing some kind of armor.
If I go with the above template, how should each category be setup? And what other info am I gonna need or find useful?
