New Game Progress

[Mark Pendergast]

I would like to see a Pirate theme - Arrrrrrrr
(Blue carpet - just to get you in the mood.)
With triangular ramps all over the place - waves.)

The robots would be like pirate ships - out to find burried treasure.
There would be written clues to where the treasure was burried.
Lots of pirate chests (Square or course) - probably numbered or named.

In auto mode - you sail out and read text clues on the field that indicate which number/name of chest has the booty. Grab the correct chest(s) and get it/them back to home base. (If you get the booty, you get 10 points, if you grab the wrong one it is minus 20).

The robots will all have a hopper/box mounted in front to catch cannon balls - circles.
There will be dozens of cannon balls thrown onto the field by human players. The robots pick these up and fire them into the box/hopper of the opposing alliance. You get 20 points for everyone that you can get to stay in the box.

At the end the robots can release teathered landing boats and the score is the length times the width in yards of the final configuration for each robot.

We have grog at the social - whatever that be...

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
