Every FRC setup configuration dictates its own strategy and there are 960 different setup positions. It is true that in FRC there is no memorization of Openings like in standard chess, but based on the number of setup positions 960 instead of one standard position the game is much more complicated. I found this excellent article on two different FRC positions very instrutional. PS: Can you imagine if some GM take the time to write an opening BOOK on the 960 different positions, and each position could have different Openings just like in standard chess. For instance, in standard chess there is only one initial position, and many openings; but for FRC there are 960 initial positions WOW. To ilustrate how complex FRC can be and how to aproach a single position take a look at this article: http://www.chessclub.org/FischerRandom.htm
