Co-op during Playoffs?

During a strategy session our team wasn't sure whether or not you get points from coop stacks during playoffs. After searching through the rules there is nothing that says that coop stacks aren't worth any points during playoffs. Does anyone know whether or not this is allowed, as it could make for a good elimination strategy when opposed by a lower seeded alliance.

Under Table 1-2 in Game Summary.

Re: Co-op during Playoffs?

I thought it was a viable strategy too until it was pointed out by someone else. Its hidden in section 3.2.1.4 discussing Point Values that Coopertition Stacks & Sets are worth no points during Playoff Matches.

Re: Co-op during Playoffs?

Coop points were never considered in playoffs even in the past years.
There is a rule somewhere in the tournament section which specifies it

Re: Co-op during Playoffs?

In the beginning of the game manual (Under The Game) there is a table that shows the values of points for each score-able option. Under the table it states that coopertition stacks and sets are not counted for in play off matches.


Hope this helps.

EDIT: Doesn't seem my link was working.

Re: Co-op during Playoffs?

Don't forget, your auton points still count.
