11. An robotic game comprising:
-
a plurality of master robots, each of the master robots uniquely assigned to a player; one or more slave targets uniquely assigned to each of the master robots; a controller assigned to each player for interactive control of an assigned master robot and corresponding slave targets; a playing surface; and wherein the game concludes when all of the slave targets of competing players have been eliminated from the playing surface.

12. A process for playing a robotic game comprising:
-
electronically coupling at least one first competitor slave target, each of the at least one first competitor slave target having intelligence to a first competitor master robot; electronically coupling at least one second competitor slave target, each of the at least one second competitor slave target having intelligence to a second competitor master robot; placing the at least one first competitor slave target, the at least one second competitor, the first competitor master robot, and the second competitor master robot onto a playing field; and reducing or eliminating functionality of the first competitor master robot when the at least one first competitor slave target is removed from the playing field alone or in combination with reducing or eliminating functionality of the second competitor master robot when the at least one second competitor slave target is removed from the playing field.
