I was so caught up in boulders/tower strength I didn't even think of this, but I really like it. It seems like it adds that extra amount of difficulty without being excessively hard or fundamentally changing gameplay.

The only issue I see is that I doubt it will be able to be changed in the scoring system (as there was no reason to build variable defense strength into the system) so that will add some difficulty in scoring. Potentially. I'm no expert.

And of course now this means that there's another crossing for teams to get mad about when refs "miss" it
