The answer to the question below is "yes, but..."
A tool attached to the robot is part of the robot (see D05)
The team can always touch the robot (R10, exception). That's an Interruption (R14).
All the applicable Penalties and losses described in R14 will occur.

Hello all-
My team wanted to know if you can touch a tool attached to the robot if the robot and half of the tool are in base?
Thanks for any insight to this!
