The first 'A-Bomb'?

[henryBsick]

The 79 469 222 alliance was tempted to try it, but it really is somewhat pointless with the accuracy our 3 shooters had. 195 on the other hand can't shoot therefor making the strategy plausible. Kudos to all successful and attempted "A-bomb" maneuvers.

I have the odd feeling we'll be seeing this a few times at the off-season competitions.
Now, to see if an alliance actually triest to load eachother via shooters and hoppers. THAT would be cool!

With the showing 177's shooter was making during the Championship, we certainly could have done it

We hope to have it tuned back up to goal-scoring condition by Battlecry

Watch, next year we will have to pass things to other robots and we call it the "B-Bomb"

Could someone let me know where the term came up?

Because I remember our drivers doing this, but that is not what we called it. ...

Tom Bottiglieri from 195 and Greg Marra from 177 came up with this(strategy and the term) at the UTC Regional, however we weren't able to pull it off then.

A play called the A-Bomb was drawn up in BAE. I couldn't tell you exactly what it involved, but I don't think the ball pass was part of the original draft.

I guess the term 'A-Bomb' has caught on and it's probably too late to change it, but Team 1114 had always referred to this potential play as "Robot Makeout". I think it has a better ring to it.

I usually called it "Mouth-to-Mouth"

But that works, too
