I'm such an idiot. I can now build my master bot.

Use all the antiballast you want as long as your finished bot does not go over 800kg

Does two weapons class as two snow plows?

cephalopod · « **Reply #11 on:** January 03, 2012, 04:38:33 AM »

2 weapons systems. 2 snow plows are not 2 different weapons systems.

ACAMS · « **Reply #12 on:** January 03, 2012, 08:44:09 AM »

A plow is not even a weapon .... they do no damage.

Must have 8 wheels (no more ... no less)
Must have at least one snow plow (light, medium, heavy, or steel)

So basically all the robots are going to look like Iceberg:

This should be interesting.

No, Iceberg would not have the 2 weapon systems and would be DQed.

Actually, I had said they would "look like", implying a similar design to, Iceberg and not "Everyone robot will be an Iceberg replica".
