So then the idea for M11, is that the robot retrieves the pet, and gets it into the Base.  The kids then attach the Prosthesis to the pet while it is in the base.  Is that correct?

Yes, the team is allowed to attach the Prosthesis to the Pet inside Base.

1)  R10, Handling During the Match, disallows touching anything (except the robot) that is outside of Base.  There is no rule that disallows handling objects that are completely inside Base (or Storage), so that is allowed (GP2).



2)  Normally the team would not be allowed to attach the Prosthesis to the Pet (R11), --but-- Mission M11 requires it.  By rule GP5, Information Superiority, the Missions can override the Rules, so attaching the Prosthesis is allowed.



As Todd noted, the Referee may take the Pet/Prosthesis combination out of play because of R14, Interrupting.  If that happens, then the team will not score any points for M11.

Hello,

We are a rookie team.



Reading through the mission statement – The prosthesis is fitted to the pet AND not held by the Ref. (Referee).

a.      What does this mean ? Does this mean team is allowed to fit the prosthesis at the base and deliver to the farm target ? If so, what is the significance of the statement “not held by the Ref. “
