For sportsman class is there a weapon restriction on flail-like weapons mounted on a spinning axis?

Well, it deals impact damage, so I imagine there would be.

This is very interesting, and I admire the work you put in it. :)

Unfortunately I'm likely not going to be able to join due to both lack of a CADing program (a decent one, mind you. I won't use SketchUp ever again, I actually downloaded it again earlier today and got fed up with it :P ), and lack of ideas. Sorry :(

A couple quick things.

First, nobody's on the roster yet because as mentioned in the rules, it doesn't count until you have three bots. This is to make things fair since signups are limited.

Scorpion1m: using physical models is okay, but they must be legible and reflect the robot's actual appearance. The flippers might be all right, but please try to take a better picture. The Knex robot is not. The Knex robot is also NOT compliant with the rules of the sportsman class because it has a spinning weapon with a power of more than 5. It will be legal if you change the disk for a saw.

Everyone else's entries look fine (don't worry, the front plate on Wyvern is fine since it's behind the main flipping arm).

Oh, you did that one purpose! (shakes fist)

Unless you have a different idea for an abbreviation, I'm just calling it "Oh Geeze" in discussion / when writing fights.

Good bot though. Reminds me a little of Apollyon with a flipper.

Damn. If you do come up with something though Kody, I'll be happy to cook something up in Maya for you to use.

I flipped the weight classes of Buzzkill and Oh Geeze. may end up un-doing this, but man are there a lot of Horizontal spinners in Featherweight (and since I havent used these bots yet, I feel OK with not giving them a solidified weight class yet :v: )

Scorpion, Tinkercad is a really easy program to use to cad bot. It's really simple to use and once you get the hang of it you can make some pretty good looking stuff on it. I'd check it out.

But anyway, I entered. Pretty excited about this...lots of different designs should make this a pretty interesting tournament. I like my Hobbyweight and Sportsmen class bots chances. Not sure how my Featherweight will do but I like the design so we shall see.

Pics will be up eventually.

Also, hate to double post, but scorpion, I don't think stationary spikes count as an active weapon. Pretty sure stationary spikes are linked to speed or something like that.
