When showcasing a bot, it is preferable to show/tell what people can't guess, as in armor, weight, and internals, yes.
I noticed.
Yeah, without these major descriptions of the weight and armor, it's like guessing the weight and materials used in a jumbo jet.
the armor is on the splash

What better way to take up extra weight left over than using Samurai Swords?
Final weight is 398 kg.

Ram plates, or more razors

Ram plates aren't a bad idea, but more razors would make the hammer ssssssssssllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

what's the point, it's not going to get any grip on the ground ??? plus this is just a weird hs

this "wheel"-base also look fairly wide exposed to me. you should hit the enemy with that weapon, not your "wheels".

Okay, drum HS only need enough traction to actually accelerate. That’s it. The less traction, the more reliable the WS is, and the less prone it is to getting stuck.

I’m considering armoring hte wheels. Thanks for that.
Just use regular wheels and make it a HS with actual controlled movement

If I don’t want it to be a WS, yes. I can just modify the controls, and switch the drums to wheels.
Why would you want it the be a WS? Most LW HSes have longer reach than your robot and could kill it easily. Use actual wheels for the drive to save weight, switch the weapon to a flatmotor (it's found using cheatbot2, should be the second to last motor with cheatbot2 enabled), get rid of the beaters, as they don't help one bit. and switch the weapon to a long DSL bar. Bang, you have traction, more reach, and more weapon power iirc.

Why hate me for trying?
I already have so many WS with DSL bars... one is being made now. It also mentions everything you prescribed above- 1 rubber wheel- a disk motor (I call them chain motors), a DSL bar tipped with beaters. and armor at the front end.

Drum roll IV.

It's a box.
on wheels.
Try spicing it up a little bit. Other than that, it's pretty good.

Another WS!
It can self-right and has the ability to ram.

1. Chassis as shown. Armor is 3 mm. Aluminum.

2.

750s are up a notch, TWM3R2 is up all the way (3 notches) Battlepack  is up 3 notches.

3. Add a small disk with small typhoon teeth to the TWM3R2.

4. Add beater bars to small baseplate anchors.

5. You now have 1 kg. to do whatever with. I added red LEDs to the WS.

6. DONE!

Made Shredder. Happy with how I BFE'd the red discs into the blue and especially how I BFE'd the chassis shape.

(Image removed from quote.)

Oh, also I made Apollo but haven't skinned it yet.

(Image removed from quote.)

And same situation with Firestorm, not skinned and the flipper glitches through the floor so will replace that at some point. Edit: changed the flipper to an armour panel.

(Image removed from quote.)

I really want to see Robot Wars return. Those bots you built are excellent.

I have another fight to add. I was teamed up with Sweet Revenge (again) and decided to fight both heavyweights on Mission Impossible. Both bots swarmed in on Sweet Revenge, and then turned on me (I was fighting as my powerful bot- Kate's Revenge). I managed to damage KILL-60, and then rip a flipper off YelllowJacket, but then, KILL-60 somehow slipped under me, and starting tossing my bot in the air, until I got stuck in the corner. I was unceremoniously destroyed, and my team lost.
