FRC STRONGHOLD - Game Planning Sheet

[katabolt]

Hi everyone, I spent the last hour putting together a game sheet to plan strategies with your alliance.

Let me know what you think, and please feel free to suggest improvements!

EDIT: Thanks for the feedback thus far- version 1.1 has been uploaded with improvements!

[prozack19]

That's pretty impressive for doing within an hour. I cant think of any improvements so good job.

[Michael Hill]

That's really nice looking. One thing I'd suggest is changing the background from green to white. That way you can actually write on it.

Can you make a back and white friendly version? It looks amazing!

[pntbll1313]

Looks great! Can you add the correct names of the defenses under the pictures?

[cait.schroeder]

I like it! I too made something to help my team and I. It is a word document that gives an overview of all the basic rules and diagrams that we will need to reference often because having to go through the manual every time is going to become tedious.

[Sunnykx]

Like it.

If you want to quickly mark which Defenses are going to be in each position, you can use the first letter from each Defense's name (use 'W' for Rock Wall and 'T' for Rough Terrain).

Great stuff! Thanks for sharing.

Only thing I can think to add would be points for Breach and Capture during playoffs.

I like the way you think! Definitely adding something like this for the next version.

I thought about copy/pasting Table 3-1 from the rulebook (which contained this), but I couldn't find a way to incorporate it without shrinking the category key too much. I'll see if I can't fit the extra information in somehow.

Again, thank you all for the feedback!

[Dorgnarg]

I love it! Definitely going to convince my team to use this! Only thing I have as far as edits go is that one of the positions (I think position 1) is always the Low bar so it might be worthwhile to mark that on there

[Jaxom]

This is really nice; thank you. My only suggestion is to put the Low Bars in place, since they're always going to be in slot 1.

This is great! Glad to see an alternate version from another team! It's neat seeing what someone else finds to be important to put on the sheet. Every team has a different strategic philosophy and that greatly affects how their strategy sheet/mat turns out. I'll consider adding a quick reference point chart and a defense diagram sheet to our coach binder that has all our strategy mats. This is definitely a smart idea, especially if teams mix up or forget their vocab. Mine are always as minimalistic as possible, and assume that the players know the rules haha.

I too made mine in less than an hour this morning. I posted it over here if anyone's curious.

Really helpful!

One small quip, though, the second obstacle in group A is the "Cheval de Frise", not the "Chevar de Frise".

[zeldathegood]

Thanks for a fantastic sheet!!

I think we will print out a bunch and use one per match.
Then the alliance drivers can decide where everyone is going to line up, defense, end game.

I agree it would be great if the low bar was in place and spell the Chevel de Frise correct.
