A heads up, this is the half-way point of making the first hardcore AI pack.

I wanted this to be a separate post because these bots are of a different type.

first, a MW with a biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig drum. It has DSA, which is something most MW VS don't. it also has effective wedges and HP ztek drive.

This is easily the coolest bot I built so far- a face spinner HW with 2 spinners on HP zteks, and another 2 on RADs. It has a single wedge instead of dual wedges, and it's pretty good. I'm really looking forward to how this bot performs in the AI.
 
screenshot_17.bmp

It has DSA.

This tiny antweight starts out on its fron and then self-rights with its spinners. Well defended and interesting, but not very damaging head-on. It also has plastic armor.
 
screenshot_18.bmp


This is something unusual- a popup that uses CO2 and a piston to inflict damage. It's wedges are decent, but he weapon doesn't do terribly much damage. Not to mention, a nifty isn't enough to power the Srimech function.
Still effective, and it can maul your bot's underside over time.
 
screenshot_19.bmp

DSA armor, HP ztek drive, 6 pole spikes.

Surprisingly good rammer. It's well balanced and has good drive, power, and weapons. The ax heads also don't drag.
 
screenshot_20.bmp

Hp ztek drive and DSA armor.

Funny name for this rammer- it comes from the team "Crabby Crabz", and it's named Radiant Crab.
6 stacked irons, HP ztek drive, a few pinks for power, DSA.
 
screenshot_21.bmp


I REALLY should have cut more space out of this bot's chassis, but it's not bad. It has snowplows for protection and HP ztek drive. It's good at pinning HS and has DSA for protection. Comes from the same team Crabby Crabz.
 
screenshot_22.bmp


This funny-looking crawler from Crabby Crabz is just plain insanity. It's pretty tough, but a havok explosion source. DSA for armor.
 
screenshot_23.bmp


I wanted to add another git-ripping HS to the AI pack, so I built Hostile Crab (below) which is a bot that can be found in the team Crabby Crabz. DSA, good wedges, good spinners, good protection, only problem is it's slow.
 
screenshot_24.bmp


A 15 razor HS. 1 spinner has 9 razors, the other has 6. I added rubber wheels to the  bot, which make the bot surprisingly stable. DSA armor and the name's Y-CRAB. It's from Crabby Crabz.
 
screenshot_25.bmp

Here's Y-CRAB in the test garage...
 
screenshot_26.bmp


Finally, the last bot on Crabby Crabz, King Crab.
A lot like Child's Play IV. I wanted to add some differences, so I built this bot with a different spinner configuration.
The funny part- King crabs are huge- This King Crab is a LW.
 
screenshot_27.bmp

6 razors, DSA, supervolt for power.

Time for popups :))
First up, a LW popup with a funny name- "A Bot With Rabies." A funny name, but a killer popup. A lot like Zenith, but it's not.
 
screenshot_11.bmp


Next, HELP! (this is the name) Surprisingly deadly.
 
screenshot_12.bmp

I was having problems getting the razors to hit all at once, so I had to make the razor assemblies' weight equal. In the end, a Y connector proved most useful.

I saw this popup concept several places, and realized how good it was, so I developed the same concept (with different weapons) for my AI pack. Here it is.
 
screenshot_13.bmp

z-tek drive, spike strip on a Snapper2 (surprisingly effective), supervolt for power, DSA.

This HW popup is a combination of a wammer and a popup. It's another 1-hit-KOer.
 
screenshot_14.bmp

3 supervolts, 18 razors, 2 irons, 4 DDTs and a lone Snapper 2, DSA.

I wanted to try something different in this popup. I wanted to try out a razor configuration, where 1 set of razors is behind the other. It's rather effective...
 
screenshot_15.bmp

4 razors on Snapper2's, regular z-teks (I didn't have enough weight or space for HP zteks), 1 nifty and 5 pinks, DSA.

This popup was designed to give Revenge of Dr. Wham 4 HP ztek drive. I didn't want it to look exactly like RODW, because that would (1) be copying a bot, and (2) there's no fun in fighting the exact same bot.
 
screenshot.bmp

I don't know remember exactly how many razors this bot has, but it has a LOT. It also has ploe spikes that fire from below like a true popup, which break off small wedges and EMERGENCY flippers. DSA for armor.

This "chassis killer" has more than a dozen razors on 5 DDTs, some of which are stacked. If it hits you just right...POW! 1 hit KO. Interesting fact- The bot's theme comes from "Twilight."

Here's the exterior, with the weapons in the fired position.

New bot.
A batter version of Ultraviolet, basically. The piston's up high, and is used to punch at popup wedges. Oh, and break off the weapons.
 
screenshot_2.bmp

HP ztek drive, 6 irons for punching, snapper2 with a small wedge, 4 pinks, DSA.
I used the EEFE glitch on the piston to get the irons to attach as shown.

Next, I went on a "spinner spri," and developed 3 different spinner bots.
First up, a generic VS. I wanted to apply an innovative twist to the design, so I made it have a wedge. I would like to reboot this bot in the future, but for now, it's good.
 
screenshot_10.bmp


Now, I felt like making the next two bots "snappy" (pun intended), and built them off snapper II's.
This first one's an 18 razor HS with castor armor and redbird drive.
Here's a closer look at just the chassis...
 
screenshot_6.bmp
 
..and here's the completed bot.
 
screenshot_7.bmp


I was in a rut when I made this bot, and I wanted to have irons positioned like on Little Darling, but a popup slipped right under this bot, and mauled it in its first match. So, I went back to the drawing board and added castors. The spinners were still way up off the ground, so I decided to attach the irons as shown, on Y connectors. Now, the bot isn't underweight, weighing in at 796 kg., and has much better defense. The spinners now cover the whole front, and even broke hammers off anti-HS in a few fights! Plans for the future- better spinners and a flatter chassis.

New bot.
I thought I'd have a go at a LW SNS, and here is is. Redbird drive, standard ztek spinners, DSA, 248.7 kg.

Yeah, running zteks off pinks is a clever idea, but nifties are best. Supervolts are a bit much for a LW, but heavier rammers should use supervolts, because they'll slow down.

I appreciate the ideas you people give me. Thanks!

I plan to develop more bots today.

Wow! that bot's smaller than Seism 13! I like how you added blades to the wedges and crammed everything in as tight as possible. Well done bot.

I also like how you added a different blood theme to the bot. The bloody drips style is kind of...well...old and repetitive.

You can use the quake burst motors, but adding DDTs with sideways 60 cm. extenders and angle connectors will provide you with the rupt glitch.

You've got a point. If the hammer attacks a popup, its front end will be lifted off the ground. Also, when it does, BANG! Game over for the hammer.

I really like the name you named the LW castor armored face spinner. It makes me laugh. (and by the way, it's a lightweight, weighing in at 247.6kg.)

I'll looked at the battery tutorial (By the way, I LOVE the beetlebros site), and as it turns out, you're 100% correct. 1 pink =1 HP ztek, so 2 HP zteks can be powered with 2 pinks.

I like your popup. If you outwedged Seism 13, then you have one good winner. Try other wedge designs to see what also is good, and what's not.

Giving HUGE a Nightmare blade. That's clever. I have a bot similar to HUGE in Real Robotics called, "Endurance."

Since I found out I wasn't eligible for the Challenge Belt, I took the time to make a cleaner version of my initial entry. Wanted to see how many irons I could fit on a heavyweight

DSA and invertible, the setup was really complicated to keep within rule of 7 but not inefficient (basically used a bunch of red extenders as further T-connectors) with 48 irons, 4 pickaxes, and 2 maces in total. Same irons as One Way Ticket and less than Dark July but I traded for casters and a snapper setup. Thank god I had component freedom for attaching the weapons, and even still had to add snapper loading to keep track of where all the extenders were

Nice design. I see you enjoy the thrill of snappers just as much as I do.

It's possible to combine AI pack. Just combine the bindings, bots, and teams. You'll have to reorder the teams.

you know when a bot is famous? When it either shows up in many tournaments and does well, or when it gets its sh** kicked in a spectacular style

You know, PrIOritY lost against Countdown (another (old) bot in the AI pack), and It wasn't easy. Countdown won by KO, but it was at last minute. PrIOritY had 27489 points, and Countdown had 28067 points. Not to mention, Countdown lost almost all of its irons.

Sometime, I'll fight them again.

a BW hammer. This bot's designed to strike popups and wedges, and it does a fair job of doing just that. Spinner fodder, though.

I'm currently working on a popup called, "Minerva."

This little antweight uses a ninja star sawblade to inflict damage. It has DSA, which is something most other antweight spinners don't have.
 
screenshot_37.bmp

If I added plastic armor, I could attach another pink, but I decided to just keep DSA on this bot.

This is easily one of the coolest bots in the entire pack- a dual drum spinner with 32 razors (16 on each of its massive spinners.) It's very stable, and has a central gap that the drums are exposed to. This actually allows this bot to break popup wedges!
 
screenshot_36.bmp

DSA for armor, 2 supervolts and 3 pinks (a little too many batteries), and ram plates on the front like Neglected Waterbug. Could be faster with 4 HP zteks instead of 2 HP zteks.

next, a better version of Stromata. It's not as exposed, and has DSA.
This is stromata...

and this is my bot.

note that I also added an ax head to protect the front.

I see. Thanks for the tip!

Moving on, This little spinner uses 2 spinners to inflict damage, and it also has 15 cm. castor armor, DSA, and a supervolt for power.
