Re: What do you think of the design of the game?

Back in Aim High, we had trouble finding a place for a cut-out sheet propped upright for a corner goal, a half ramp, and a high goal top half... and those are a lot smaller than the overpass/divider. Given, you don't have to build the whole overpass/divider... so maybe I'm wrong.
I was more imagining teams would make the rail (maybe not even at full length) and then just throw on a pair of ladders at the right height with some clamps for prototyping. The center divider doesn't appear to be a very significant visibility barrier so you could just approximate it with some traffic cones or something. I don't know when I talk about low budget prototyping I mean cardboard and thumbtacks sometimes...I mean if it works why pour extra money in to it?

Also about the defense issue. Check out this excellent post about defense in this game. http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=61047
