Re: Autonomous impact on defenses/tower
In the Game Manual it states
Quote:
Each TOWER starts the MATCH with eight (8) STRENGTH. Each BOULDER scored in a GOAL decreases
the TOWER’S STRENGTH by one (1). A TOWER is WEAKENED if the TOWER’S STRENGTH is at or
below zero (0). The STRENGTH of a TOWER is indicated by TOWER lighting as described in Section
2 (2.2.3.1 CASTLE WALL).

From this I would say that any boulders scored in the tower during auton would definitely count towards decreasing the strength. the same goes with the defenses strength during auton except for the following scenario in the manual
Quote:
ROBOTS can also receive AUTO points for REACHING a DEFENSE. A DEFENSE is REACHED when,
at the end of the AUTO period, any part of a ROBOT’s BUMPERS are within the opponent’s OUTER
WORKS. Once a ROBOT CROSSES a DEFENSE in AUTO, any additional DEFENSES that ROBOT
REACHES or CROSSES during the AUTO period will not decrease DEFENSE STRENGTH nor contribute
points to the ALLIANCE.
