Re: Discs Anyone?

Coming up with novel game pieces is hard. As far as space figures go, there are spheres, prisms, toroids, and pyramids. Been there, done that. We've done balls in various sizes, from 7" to 30". I'm still holding out for the game that goes for something smaller... think golf balls or baseballs. Littering the field with tiny debris will demand much more finesse in driving, and could change the general trend that robot designs have taken in recent years.
