Poker or Flipper BOTM. They're endangered. D:
BOTM where the maximum chassis height/width/length has to be used.
Stock BOTM with Titanium/Steel armor.
BOTM with at least two chassis wedges or a variant like a bot with chassis wedges on at least two sides.
Stock Sawbot BOTM
No red/black extenders Stock BOTM

Edit: Trov. glitch BOTM

Edit again: Multibot BOTM maybe?

Triple edit: I like this one; a (non-invertible) bot with a srimech BOTM.

I do like the idea of restricting some of the more commonly used components, as it would force builders to experiment a little bit more than they perhaps normally would. We might see a few new and different designs as well.

Since ACAMS always specifically mentions

"Normal building with all glitches allowed (no AAM or BFE type stuff)"

in BOTM threads, we should have one with no building glitches allowed. Can still be unrealistic though.

i second this
ACAMS jokingly had an MLP BOTM.
It was funny as heck, and annoyed everyone except Nerdbomb(and myself, of course) but after about 2-3 days he put it back to normal.

.....I think that was the vehicle BOTM, if I remember correctly.

I would love a Stock one in which you had to use casters and snowplows.

I've moved to other forums. Under a different name. This is where it all began.

Crawlers look all the damn same at Stock lighter weightclasses.

I suggest a true walker botm. Any weight goes, but the bot must move exclusively via realistic legged propulsion, and NOT be a weaponless crawler "OMG MY BAWHT HAS 16 SKIS ON FLAILS ON DISCS ON SERVOS! IT TOTALLY WALKS !!!!!!111!1!!!one!oneeleventy!!1"

I still think one where we're restrictive about commonly used components would be a good idea.

I'm struggling to come up with any way you could come up with "realistic" legged propulsion in RA2, short of chaining Linear Actuators. That might be havoky as anything. But I suppose it's worth a try.
