Go to Post I would suggest spending a few more hours digesting the manual before you finalize your designs. You seem to have missed a few key rules. - GaryVoshol [more]

Should be interesting to see how teams (mine included) approach the new defense without much practice. I hope it adds a new challenging element to the game and look forward to it.

The Livestream of the event will be live here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQT...93LrYzIIvNe-g/

We will be live-streaming the entire day Saturday just as we do for all the in-season competitions. We might also stream on Friday.

The current plan includes practice matches Friday evening, although how many practice matches we have will be dependent on how many volunteers we have to set up the field (and if we run into any issues).

I can't wait to see how teams handle the new defense. It will be much more difficult to cross than the portcullis, but the important part is that the log roll will not break as easily (or at least that's the idea).

If anyone wants more information on the Log Roll, here are the CAD files for it: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/f...zdmN0Z3VmRTMkU
