Re: We need your precious help/suggestion.
Have you used a structured approach or process to understanding the game rules, brainstorming on how you might be able to play the game, and then come to some sort of consensus on what sort of robot could play the game the way you decided?

Our team (3132 "Thunder Down Under") has a set of powerpoint slides that we got from Team 365 MOE and have modified a bit. We've used them with a lot of the rookie international teams and it seems to help teams get to a good place in terms of robot concept and design when you don't have a lot of robot building experience.

If you want this set of powerpoints, send me an email. You may find it useful or not, but it's another data point.
