Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/Important – Team Update #1
Personally, I think the note at the end of the update refers to everything except G36. No one here, except Dave, knows whether that was an oversight or not. I'm led to believe that it was a rule that was revised prior to kickoff but not included in the final manual due to the fact that both the animation and the mock game included robots extending above 6'. That's just a guess though.
I'm sad to see it go. I thought that it was a unique challenge and really promoted scoring and made it very difficult to maximize points in hybrid mode. Now that it has been eliminated, there are many more defensive possibilities that are completely legal...not necessarily a bad thing, but not necessarily in the original intent of the game either. While I welcome an easier hybrid mode, I'm still shocked to see this drastic a change.
