Personally, i think BOTM should be the best bot showcased during that month, and people nominate, and then the community votes.
Not many people build stock BWs.

yo
(R1885... looks a bit like my saw bot, especially how you have the armor set up)

SO-
I'm gonna do a rematch for the lw hazmat reier vid, but is it ok if i don't film it? if i remember right, it was a very boring match.
it would be a lot quicker

 Uhhhh.... Final Destination with 6wd. No where near as good as the 4wd version, but I thought i would give it a try. Doesn't deserve a cool splash. 3 blacks.

I thought so... well, at least it can self right. Well that's an even trade-off.

Alright thanks for the tip sage. Do you think it's possible to make this bot invertible using shiny hubcap wheels or is it too tall? Not with the snappers vertical like that.

I made my chassis 7px taller than minimum to make room for the burst motors, so I figured I might as well make the best of the traction on one side if I couldn't make it invertible.
Actually, just for future reference, you only need 6px for the green burst motors.

Nice... hammer suck balls though so make sure to put maces on. and try to make it invertible next time.

Then why did you say you could?

And sage, I've already done the calculations. I can make the chassis small enough to fit everything under 800kg, I'll post pictures later when I've actually completed the bot. how many batts and what drive?
I'm completing this bot using all stock, no anti-ballasts or anything. And this was just to show this burst motor stacking method I did to stack 4 motors so compact. Which, by the way, is more compact than anything else I've seen on here. i did it with 4 servos a long time ago... all in the exact same spot. but that's not on this forum, so i see where you are coming from.
EDIT: Once again, this is NOT my final bot. There is a ton of free space in the chassis, this was just to show what I thought was an interesting and new way to stack burst motor axles over each other to make a compact stacked motor set up.
Also this was to show that connecting the motor directly to the burst-motor allows you one more layer of extenders for the tribar, which allows you to stack more than 3 weapons easily. which is cool, but if you're using 4 hpz then it's not very helpful.
i wanna see a final picture, because if you can build a 36 HS with 4 Green Snappers, you will blow our minds. (Has to have HPZ drive though... and two blacks.

AC vs. T-800 will be intense.

You will never get 36 maces on with that setup. Sorry. (Unless you only use 2 Hp-Zteks... which could turn out interesting)

When you get to this point in building... you will begin to realize that RA2 is less about fighting and more about designing.
Looking at your bots, i see that you have an HS that can beat all the "good" bots in SCv3. Try beating Neglected Waterbug with a popup or a rammer or a VS or... well the list goes on.
Building one good bot is not enough. HS are always gonna be good. Try building something else, and you'll find that those old Starcore bots are not as easy as they seem.
