LUNACY

Expect the Unexpected

Every year, the game rules of FRC are a surprise. This year, the game is called LUNACY. It is played on a low friction field to simulate the surface of the moon and the robots have slippery wheels. The robots will also tow payload trailers. During the game, “Orbit Balls” are designated as moon rocks, empty cells, or super cells. The basic idea of this year’s competition is to get these balls in your opponent's payload trailer and avoid getting them in yours. Alliances of three teams are formed and two alliances participate in each battle.
