Does anyone have any ideas on what I could build for RW2?


As I don't want to get trashed, like I did in UK vs USA...
According to the entries, a rammer might be good. Something like Plow King from Battlebots IQ, for example.
 
Also, what did you enter in RW1 again?

During that battle between Chaos 2, 13 Black and Razer (Arguably a dethroning moment of suck for both Chaos 2 and Razer), I noticed that after Chaos 2 broke down, Razer kept attacking it after it was immobilised to try and destroy it...


...the very same thing they were bitching about in Series 4!  Hypocrites.
also the career ending damage to Chaos 2 was done by Psycho, not Razer from what I heard
They all chipped in, really. 13 Black immobilised it, Razer then attacked it from behind repeatedly, 13 Black came in and tried to hit it again, and then it was flipped on the floor flipper, Mr Psycho hammered it repeatedly, crushed its chassis, carried it around the arena, and then pitted it.
 
Disproportionate retribution   :FFFUUU

Just had a moment of RW Extreme Fridge Logic.

It pretty much worked thoguh didn't it.

They apparently had to work on chaos 2 a lot to get it working again
why they didn't buid a chaos 3 at this time i will never know.
What worked? Surely they could've been able to tell Chaos 2 was immobilised instead of teaming up with everyone to try and utterly destroy it after immobilisation.
 
And yes, after that bout, it underwent a massive internal overhaul to get it working for displays again, but not for actual battles.
Likewise, in Series 7, the main teams and captains of the Robot Wars "Superbots" (EG. Chaos 2, HypnoDisc, Razer) were taking a break that year to allow some new teams a chance, and also to dedicate time to improving their robots.
I heard there was a HypnoDisc v2 in the works until RW was cancelled.

I'd probably skin the eye on too. =P
And the brush teeth?

awesome... if you want to get into custom parts you could try Dark Rats dome shell  :gawe:
But do make sure you remove the Burger King Branding from it first, mind you   :approve:

No havok, cheaty skirt hinge burst motor, not much realism involved...I will award a cookie to anyone who can guess the setup. =P
<3
 
Anyway, the tongue itself is the body, and connected to the rest of the chassis via connectors.

Oh. I hate Dantomkia. It had a design full of gimmicks and got outwedged (shame on them for not having a snapper wedge :P)
I also hate:
Hammer and Tong
Wild Thing (already mentioned but is my no. 1 least favourite bot)
Mace 2
Behemoth
Pussycat
Razer (kind of. I used to like razor but it's got boring)

My favourite bots are:
Robochicken
Bulldog Breed
Barberous 2
and Tetanus Booster.
Do you just hate all the popular robots?
Seems to be a general rule, really. Other than Cassius II, most of the ones I like seem to be very well-known.

Thanks Badnik. Gives me a better idea as of what to expect and what to build accordingly  :P

It was still a good bot IMO.
Yeah it was.
Just not a crow favourite like any of the aforementioned robots.
Well, it was the only one named after a character from The Magic Roundabout.
 
Apart from Ruf Ruf Dougal, maybe. But that sucked.

I've always wanted to visit Canada. It just seems like a cool place to go. I see it as USA's kinda 'older cousin', that's a bit more grown up and less into Disney and JLS and guns and drugs and rubbish like that.
And Maple Syrup, don't forget that.

The problem with frenchmen is that most are hypocrites. That's one of the reasons I want to move to US or canada for work.
Well, considering the nationality, I'd say Canada is a good idea. I mean, they speak both French and English.
 
And who knows, I think they do pretty good baguettes as well  ;)

I think France is a pretty good country. It's the French I can't stand. =P
Jeremy Clarkson says the same thing.
And me  ;)

I knew you would bring that up.
 
Are there any UK Series 2 reps this time around?

king mushroom has Cassius I think that's it.

And there WILL be a RW3, and it WILL be MW.
Hm, that's alright then. I look forward to building a Series 2 Mortis with the custom blade and the Overkill hammer motor!   ;)

Not that I know of. Maybe if Badnik displayed the names of the Replicated Robots (Like he did last year), It'd make it a bit easier to see.
 
"Ah, Brilliant! Superb Gymnastics from Cassius, there!"

I'll probably make something from Series 2 as well. Series 2 is under-rated, in my view. I liked that format.
Yeah...at least then, it wasn't entirely second-rate flippers and spinners.
 
And there was Cassius, of course  ;)

Maybe the third one would be MW. If there's a third one. In which case I'd probably enter with something awesome. =D
And me, of course.
 
Probably with something like Killerhurtz or Mortis from Series 2.

DSL bars, on the top and bottom attaches of the discs, angled sideways?
Yeah that could work, doesn't get the little hook part at the end right though.
Then again maybe i'm just trying to be too much of a perfectionist.

Augh, there's probably going to be lots of Horizontal spinners.
Blame the weight restriction, I would have used S.M.I.D.S.Y if this was MW.
I am. I mean, I think this would've been far more popular if it were Middleweight. And then maybe I'd have been able to create something decent, too.
