Team Yellow Alert LW - Exotherm  A vertical spinner with two setups. Pictured above is the anti-wedge fork setup. The forks are limited from moving upwards and hitting the bar. The robot is weakly invertible and can self-right using the BiteForce method of driving upside-down into a wall and righting itself with its weapon. When the weapon isn't running it can also self-right by simply reversing quickly.  The anti-spinner shield setup. The central section of the wedge is all part of the weapon arm and gets the weapon bonus, while the outer parts of the arm, which are hinged, get no bonus to keep below the 33% rule.  To better illustrate this concept, here's a view with the "darth vader mask" removed. Note the connection underneath it between the side wedges.  Spinning. Speed: 7 Traction: 4 Torque: 1 Weapon: 13 Armor: 5 MW: Stingray    A full body bar puncher with some fun and happy attachments, like a flipping spring and a harpoon. Can also function as a dumb thwack (non-melty). Speed: 9 Traction: 6 Torque: 3 Weapon: 4 Armor: 8 HW: Infrared    Hinged invertible drum spinner. ABR forks that fit into a hinged wedge on the back. Speed: 5 Traction: 4 Torque: 1 Weapon: 13 Armor: 7 SHW: Metal Heck    An experimental attempt to make horizontal spinners more viable in the current metagame. Features a giant bar similar to Parasite and V'Ger, but is designed heavily around outflanking giant plows. It can monster-truck over wedges and rotate its weapon assembly 180 degrees to drop the blade onto unsuspecting foes' weaker top armor (as the second picture demonstrates), or to invert the blade to run upside-down. Is also has a far more effective secondary wedge of its own than its heavyweight siblings (it functions as 2WD static wedge from the other side). Difficult to get a sense of scale but that blade is the same diameter as Parasite's, for reference. HUGE, of course it is a superheavyweight! This robot will make all its opponents say 'Heck'. Speed - 5 Traction - 3 Torque - 1 Weapon A - 13 (spinner) Weapon B - 1 (pivot) Armor - 7 Edited by BEES, Feb 23 2018, 03:16 AM.

My first ever tournament on ARC. This is going to go swimmingly. GTM users are probably groaning now. LW: Blitz Mk. III: The prior Blitz robots fought in RNP: Sword of Glory, and RoboGames. This specially made version for ARC has been given additional forks for wedging and a much larger, more powerful flipper. It's weakness is that it is slow.  Weapon: 8 Speed: 6 Torque: 3 Armor: 8 (+3 to the flipper) Traction: 5 MW: Raus Mk. IV: The prior Raus robots have fought in The Cybernetic Colloseum, Sword of Glory and Robogames. This special version includes more supports and metal, because the Mk. III was built for RA2 IRL meta victory rather than RA2 IRL meta realism and aesthetics, and especially not ARC aesthetics. THe drum is monstrously powerful, and if you get hit by it you're probably not gonna have a fun time. But, the gyro dancing is so bad that to turn at all, it has to turn at a very slow pace. It also doesn't have much torque behind the drive, because it uses a feeder wedge instead.  Weapon: 14 Speed: 5 Torque: 1 Armor: 6 Traction: 4 HW: Cutthroat. This was originally an entry for GTM's Bot of the Month, and now it comes to ARC! It's been described as Edgy Splinter by some people and sadly they're actually pretty bloody right on that one. It uses a spinner killer lifting scoop for selfrighting, and twin pickaxes that, instead of being used to do damage, are used to CLAMP onto robots, drive them around before lifting the opponent up and onto a wall. Basically, Splinter. It isn't built for doing damage, it's built for slamming into opponents and either breaking their weapon on Cutthroat's face, or shoving them around, lifting and controlling them into awkward positions and harassing them.  Weapon: 5 (3 for lifter, 3 for clamping axes that work on the same mechanism) Speed: 6 Torque: 5 Armor: 9 (+2 to the lifter) Traction: 5 SHW: Panzer Strike Mk. II: A big fuck off hammer, designed to rattle you and knock either your circuity/wires/antenna/removable link loose or just batter you enough to steal a JD. It also is built with full 360 defence by having big arse wheelguards and a hinged plow on the front. However, self-righting is somewhat awkward, and the drive is slow due to the focus on Big Fuckoff Weapon and Big Fuckoff Armour.  Weapon: 13 (Die.) Speed: 3 Torque: 2 Armour: 8 (+2 to the plow) Traction: 4 Let me know if i've broken any rules or haven't gotten how the stats work. Mod Edit: Fixed image links so they embed properly. - HFL Edit: thank mr hfl. also, changed stats to improve them. Edited by Avalanche, Feb 25 2018, 04:03 PM.

LW: Bluebot Speed: 6 Traction: 5 Torque: 1 Armour: 5 Weapon: 13 This is literally every robot I've ever fought against IRL. MW: Killing Intent  Speed: 6 Traction: 6 Torque: 2 Armor: 14 (+1 Wedge) Weapon: 2 A pneumatic hammer that hits like a squeaky toy. Still better than Fliegen. (I feel like I unintentionally ripped of like 60 bots.) Wedge is hinged. HW: Flashback  Speed: 6 Traction: 5 Torque: 1 Armor: 10 (+3 Wedge) Weapon: 8 (7 Spinner + 1 Pivot) A razorback clone with a vertical disc. The wedge is on a hinged so the wedge can be on the floor and still have all 4 wheels on the ground. SHW: Ravex  Speed: 5 Traction:5 Torque: 3 Armor: 12 Weapon: 5 Another 360* lifter, but this time utilizing a dustpan to carry its opponents. Edited by GuldenFlame, Feb 24 2018, 12:25 AM.

LW: The Most Despicable and Disastrous Twins     Juicy render:  Joon (Melty): Speed: 12 Torque: 1 Traction: 1 Armor: 7 Weapon: 1 Shion (Wedge): Speed: 4 Torque: 2 Traction: 2 Armor: 14 Weapon: 0 "You're about to learn first-hand why we're the most diabolical, disastrous sisters around!" Oh hey, a glass cannon Nuts clone! Unfortunately the clusterbot rules for this tourney hurt the stats considerably, but that won't stop me making a valiant effort, at least. Joon's hat is fabric and loosely attached, so it won't stop them from inverting, in theory. Shion is a bricky wedge, which will hopefully allow it to shrug off most hits and allow Joon to go into plaid and get some good hits. Joon does have some free moving wedges of her own too, which can slide up and down the connectors. MW: G.B.J.     A pretty render that I made:  Speed: 7 Torque: 1 Traction: 4 Armor: 10 Weapon: 8 (6+1 saw, 2 arm) So i finally entered a Simpleflips meme last night. Its opponents got stuck in Gay Baby Jail for 2 hours and then fell on the killsaws live on stream. Great entertainers they are. please kill me Ahem... Anyway, it's a dustpan with an 180 degree saw. Nothing too fancy. HW: Lunatic Udonge Axe configuration:     Flipper configuration:     Pretty flipper version render:  Speed: 5 Traction: 4 Torque: 1 Armour: 12 (+2 on ABR) Weapon: 8 (+1 if axe) Don't you see that you've already fallen into this moon rabbit's trap? Left, right, up and down... Your sense of direction has already gone insane. Though you're trying to fly straight ahead, you're floating around aimlessly. Now, gaze into my eyes, and become more insane still! First time building a bot with multiple configurations, hopefully this will go well. The stats are identical between versions (disregarding the axe bonus), and can use either an axe or a ludicrously overpowered flipper. Said flipper can go a full 180 degrees over, as it's running on the same systems to fire the axes. Due to the reinforcing crossbar, the axes fire in unison. Also it's got Mecanums because those are good fun. As is standard for a lot of my bots, the ears are floppy fabric and thus won't prevent inverted driving. SHW: Hartmann's Youkai Bot     Blah blah pretty render  Speed: 3 Torque: 1 Traction: 1 Armor: 9 (+1 to wedge) Weapon: 16 (15 spinner, 1 lifter) "Everyone had an invisible friend that the adults can't see, right? Uhuhu..." Well, Super Heavyweights are far from invisible, especially when they're shell spinners. Regardless, this is a weird design for a weird girl: It's got an Edited by Trihunter, Feb 24 2018, 05:55 PM.

Ok, the arsonist is back. I mean, not really, seeing as I don’t have any flamethrower bots. Yet... Anyway, My entry’s LW: I want to enter if you hate it hit it with a ring spinner mkii, but no-one will like me, so I am now calling it HIRricaine.   Stats: speed:4; traction:1(+1 for tracks); torque: 1; weapon: 15; armour:9 A mecanum tracked ring spinner. Sorry for the lame cad, but my computer is dead so I can’t get a better one. In MW, having done well in RFN, and because I can’t cad anything new without my computer, it’s Magica    Stats: speed: 8; traction: 7(+1 for tracks?); torque: 2; weapon: 3; armour: 10 (+1 to the flipper) Magica is a mecanum tracked flipper. Not really much else to say. Has an anti-hammer plate on top, that stops it being invertible, so it is likely that it won’t be used unless necessary. HW: Narsiccistic hot-shot (NHS mkiii) The third bot with these initials, the death flipper is here.   Stats: speed: 5; traction: 4; torque: 1; weapon: 10; armour: 10 Rear hinged flipper. Yes, all those gems are highly expensive, yes, that is genuine silver plating. Yes, that crown is solid gold. now we just need a crowd. SHW: Cyclone; a death spinner. Most of this bot is spinner. Some of it is transportation for the spinner.  Stats: speed: 3; traction: 1; torque: 1; weapon: 15; armour: 9; 1 point for variable gearbox. Not much to say really. Spinner barely touches the floor, and does so in front of the wheels. Self fighting? By spinning the bar. Weighted a bit in the back so it doesn’t tip over. It has a two speed variable gearbox to boost startup torque. Edited by PyroTechnica, Feb 24 2018, 05:31 PM.

THE DREAM TEAM [made specifically to make scheduling easier :V] ---- Lightweight (entered by Mr. AS) GREEN BRICK  Speed: 11 Traction: 1 Torque: 3 Armor: 15 Weapon: 0 it goes really fast and spinners will have fun beating it up for 3 minutes  ---- Middleweight, referencing Harry Potter (entered by Madman) "Double, double toil and trouble; fire burn and cauldron bubble. Fillet of a fenny snake, In the cauldron boil and bake; Eye of n00t and toe of frog, Wool of bat and tongue of dog, Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting, Lizard's leg and owlet's wing, For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth boil and bubble." Eye of n00t  I thought that my team needed a bit of fun and whimsy, so here's a full-body drum in the mold of Barber-ous.  Not too much to say, since it's exactly what it appears to be. It's temporarily in Middleweight because I don't like Black Dog's chances in this meta.  Speed: 3 // Traction: 2 // Torque: 1 // Weapon: 16 // Armour: 8 ---- Heavyweight (entered by The_Angry_Goat) Chad the Inhaler  Speed: 12 Traction: 10 Torque: 3 Weapon: 1 Armor: 4 YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH AN INVENTIVE BOT IN YOUR LIFE. SRIMECH ON TOP IS CONNECTED TO THE PNEUMATIC FLIPPER ON THE FRONT. YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS BOT EVER BEFORE. ---- Superheavyweight (entered by That Kode Guy) Count Bleck  Speed: 1 Traction: 1 Torque: 1 Armour: 7 Weapon: 20 4WD shell spinner with omni-wheels. Will kill itself in one hit. Will probably kill you at the same time. Will hockey puck with impudence while doing so. Have fun. :V |
