At that moment, all opposing robots will be on the other end of the field, allowing this ridiculously overpowered alliance to grab the boulders off the secret passage without interference. This alliance would have a HUGE lead in points and cycle time!

Maybe I will to see this at IRI or on the Einstein field. One can hope...

To make this possible, one of the autonomous routines must be performed on a non-low bar defense. 1678, your move.
Pretty sure low bar is a necessity to pull it off (talk about auto traffic jam) ..doubt two robots pull that move off consitently but who knows. I think the single boulder possession rule make this nearly impossible.
