2 stories = 2 plots = 2 pieces of land = 2 large alliance zones

So, none of this Breakaway 3-zone silliness.

The visible portion is "only" two stories tall, but there's some serious support structure in the basement to keep it from breaking through the floor. Keep that in mind if you're looking for game hints.

Psh, I don't even need all that.

Just give me a 100% accurate 3D model of the field (.stp is acceptable) and I'll be as happy as a robot kid can be.

It wouldn't be to hard to piece it together from a long prose instruction set either, as long as it wasn't outsourced-Chinese product style.

"Saw to the dimensioning of 4 by 2. For the maximum FRC funny, please to insert bolt B to hole 9."

Re: [BB] That's a wrap

I'd be satisfied with a sketch up model. I too hope that the instructions for this year's field will be easier to follow.
