Re: Value of a Gear Ground Pickup

Actually this would not be legal per rule G21: Robots may not deliberately use GAME PIECES, e.g. GEARS in an attempt to ease or amplify the challenge associated with other FIELD elements e.g. BOULDERS, HOPPERS, or ROPES.

By deliberately dropping gears in front of the Air Ship you are amplifying the challenge associated with the Air Ship.

Sorry this is a really interesting strategy that I had hoped would be viable, but sadly not.
