i think you should have stopped at 3, if only because the fourth one seems overblown.

I know being overblown is the point of the bot, but still there is a thing as being too overblown.

I agree with you 100%. But it was request like any other so I accepted and made it happen. This bot is made to be the crappiest and I know most of the cheatbot2 components are good but since they are not very well accepted in showcases, unless it's for exceptional purposes such like this one, I think they would deserve a place as well.

CameraFan, are you sure you want the latest version of GTM Nightmare in the exchange?
I just want to have it, of course you can't battle with it. :P TOO MANY FLAILS

I agree, but I just wanted to see what it would look like with the replica parts.

Ok, The bot is in DSL UHW section. Make sure you pause the game before going into the bot lab with it or the game will crash.

Have fun  :smile:

Here's another joke bot





The bot specializes in destroying Light weights and lighter bots.
At the right time and right spot it can send bots flying long distances.

2 Small pistons fire a platform up to send the victim airborne and then get struck by the customized baseball bat. It works pretty well. It just needs some skill.

Thanks a lot for comments as always  :smile:

This next bot was supposed to be posted here immediately after posting GTM Nightmare. I kept postponing it because of what happened next. I wasn't expecting that reaction of the community. I was expecting more of rage comments. But instead it went way better then predicted :mrgreen:







The chassis of this bot are exactly the same as GTM Nightmare and the 2 anchors were the only components that were kept in place and I designed this bot by thinking what to do with them.
That joke bot came out to be one of the most battle effective HWs I've ever built. Very fast, very maneuverable, a decent amount of weapons. It has spinners but the bot is also an excellent rammer and pusher. It has a self righting system that works around 90% of the time.
(Note that the pics are 5 days old and there was a minor editing not displayed. The wedges were turned into aluminum and the self-righting mechanism into steel to make it more survivable).

>Very Fast and very Agile
>Very good wedges
>Very stable (at least as long as the beater bars of the spinners are intact and not very unbalanced to one side)
>Powerful armament
>Highly versatile
>Compact design
>Not easy to flip over
>Very good self-righting mechanism

>Averagely protected wheels
>The outer angled panels can easily come off and if lost, it drastically reduces the bot's stability
>Ineffective against the majority of spinner bots

Does "Upgrade" imply an upgrade to the amount of RAAAAAGE or an upgrade to the usability of it?

It implies usability. That's why i put all that text. It really is a good bot.
The name is the same just because the chassis are the same.

That batbot looks like it'd be a great houserobot should houserobot AI/rulesets ever become possible.



Camemberta won the third prize at BB9.
Also apparently she was real lucky.

I'm not following you. What do you mean by houserobot?

He means like the TV house robots from robot wars as in it would be in a corner and anyone that got close to it would be thrown across the arena.

Oh I got it now. I didn't know the corner bots were called like that. I guess that to be real it would have to be really heavy and pack a huge punch to throw bots a decent distance.

Well, since some people are into making planes now, I decided to join in. Not to make the plane work but just for looks.











I was following the design of my favorite WWII fighter plane, which is the name of the bot.
It obeys to almost everything about it including exhausts and armament. 20mm nose cannon is a tornado spike and the 7.7mm machine guns displayed as 2 flamethrower spikes (Yes, I know the right calibers of the guns from this one and from pretty much almost any WWII and WWI plane :rolleyes:).
Fully retractable wheels too.
The only thing that bugs me are the wings, which are not long enough.
