I think Q890 and Q851 are the two you're looking for. Hope this helps.

If every regional has a 1369 then Stronghold is going to be a ridiculously fun game. They are absolutely shutting down the opposing alliances.

Well, if we learned one thing today, it is to be careful with 775s

But they can't go under the low bar!

Never underestimate people's ability to underestimate.

Can anyone who is out there in Palmetto give an estimate on the boulders' condition at different points through the competition?
Do they make sure to only keep the ones that are in good condition, or did you end up with really worn out boulders in the final stages of the competition?

We are waiting for this info as well! If someone in Palmetto can provide us how they managed this, we appreciate!

[b1nary]

interesting match. a lot of defensive plays.

[Boltman]

Palmetto teams great job!

Hey can someone there give us a summary of things you learned that you did not know going in... just an overall REAL vs theoretical breakdown. Like what was easier/harder, challenges and did human players have any significant effect.

Also what penalties were called most?

[lovelj]

Take away from tournament, expect lots of repairs. Bring epoxy, loctite, duct tape, bailing wire, spit... Most brutal competition I've seen

DO NOT STEP OVER THE DEFENSES WHEN SETTING UP YOUR ROBOT.
