Anyone try it?

Not sure if you guys saw this from the 1.9.0.0 beta: [1]
Anyone try it yet? Seems pretty weird. :-) I was curious to just plop Diamond's gun in there and see how it goes but I haven't bothered yet. Unless it doesn't have radar either? I'm sure we don't want these in the existing rumbles, so we may have to handle that in the rumble client/server soon too.
Interesting addition to Robocode. From how that post reads to me, it doesn't look like we need to do anything special to block them in the existing rumble client/server, as it looks like they're own enabled in special rulesets.
As a general note, my overall impression of the idea, is that it could be neat for "showmatches" but I'm not sure if it meaningfully adds to the strategy bots should use when they're in play. Robots could consider different wall boundaries to be wider if the sentries were destroyed, however I can't see it as being productive to attempt to destroy them.
