has there ever been an official super heavyweight BOTM ? (1200kg)

or how about a clusterbot BOTM ?

A clusterbot BOTM would be cool, but it'd have a nice limit on it somehow.

@ Craaig: for clusterbots maybe heavyweight DSL realistic and the bots have to be able to connect at a point if it was real life maybe it has to be displayed in the splash like take the bot lab screen shot pics and "connect the bots together" in the splash  :-D

Way to many anything goes BOTM's, and multibots is getting boring with three (I think) Cluster tournaments coming. Can't we go back to the spesific one bot type BOTM's?

STOCK (cause i like it more). HW (cause they are a lot more interesting to look at). HYBRID (any kind, but need to fit into at least two categories).

I second Sage's idea.
Title: BOTM July 09 Ideas
Post by: JoeBlo on May 30, 2009, 10:07:53 AM

Post by: Naryar on May 30, 2009, 10:20:42 AM
I fourth Sage's idea !
Title: BOTM July 09 Ideas
Post by: Wings on May 30, 2009, 10:29:00 AM
I like that idea Sage, mainly the Hybrid part.  That will really diversify the entries.

Post by: Weirdo on May 30, 2009, 10:40:42 AM
Yup, I'm in agreement with sage.
Title: BOTM July 09 Ideas

Most realistic Robot Wars Stock bot... Thats maybe hard but not of all of us!
Title: BOTM July 09 Ideas
Post by: JoeBlo on June 01, 2009, 09:26:13 AM
your really going robot wars crazy arnt you ? lol don't blame you I too am a fan but there is a showcase for replicas in the ... well showcase section so I wouldn't think its really a BOTM,

for BOTM people usually wan to pull out the best they can build so it would really restrict things a bit to much, but that's just my opinion :)
Title: BOTM July 09 Ideas
Post by: Reier on June 01, 2009, 09:46:54 AM
Realistic stock something.

How about a bot of the month where we re-use a chassis from the stock bots in RA2?  It is really more challenging than it sounds.
Title: BOTM July 09 Ideas
Post by: pyscolone on June 02, 2009, 01:33:08 PM
how about two bots that can be driven onto eachother and be useful
Title: BOTM July 09 Ideas
Post by: russian roulette on June 02, 2009, 03:33:05 PM
how about replicas that were never made yet?
Title: BOTM July 09 Ideas
Post by: Weirdo on June 02, 2009, 03:42:13 PM
^^Wouldn't they go on the replicas thread??

Anyway I like Jack Daniels idea. Notwithstanding the fact this thread was origonaly made for ideas for BOTM JULY, which has already been picked - the idea that is, not the bot - now it seems to be BOTM idea in general?
