beginners showcases naturally spawn a load of help but remember they are trying to help you improve just the same as a coach helps the football team :-D
trying sitting down planning something and taking a dedicated half an hour or so making it, then test it out, improve it, then post it up, remember incomplete bots can be saved still

@ 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

essentially yes that is a loop hole that battlebots had which is why the swarm ended up being 3 robots rather then 2 so they could exploit that
in robot wars its if ONE of the clusters gets destroyed there all out
so yes if the 598 gets taken out first then the battle will continue

full body spinner = FBS = outside spins around but inside stays in the one pace
sns = sit n spin = whole robot spinning around
look up team whyachi's "Y-Pout" for an SnS and "Typhoon 2" or "Ziggo" for a FBS

essentially yes I would say that's fair considering they get 2 heavyweights running around
Edit: yes Craaig is also right

ok the clusterbot/multibot rules are on page 1 I decided to make it like battlebots style rules that were enforced for "the swarm" except the cluster limit is set to 2

I have been studying the real life rules and will post up my decision in the clash cubes 2 thread right now :-D

I have played Robot Wars Extreme Destruction with a computer controller and it made it a little more fun to play (seeing as that game can get boring fast with the lack of components) haven't tried it with RA2
