Re: Secret Passage

For anyone still following this, the 1st rule update clarified it (caveat - I paraphased parts of it, so look it up yourself to be sure):

Section 3.4.3 General Rules

G11 Blue Box added:

G11 does not apply for strategies consistent with standard gameplay, e.g. a TEAM obtaining a BOULDER from their SECRET PASSAGE, . . . .

Examples include:

A. . . . .

B. . . . .

C. A Red robot is parked completely within the Blue Secret Passage. A Blue robot, attempting to reach the Blue Brattice (the human player station where you put boulders back into play), makes contact with the Red Robot. The Red Robot receives a G21 penalty (making contact inside secret passage). There are no violations of G11 (intentionally causing an opposing side to get a foul) because the Blue robot was trying to access their Brattice and not solely trying to cause the Red robot to violate G21.
