The Gimmick:Everyone who signs up picks a MW or HW that comes with the stock AI. After I have 16 entrants I'll randomize and redistribute them among the entrants for you to build your bot. Go read the Pot Luck thread if you want a better explanation of the process.
Gimmick Rules:-All robots must use the original chassis as the stock AI.
-Robots must be the same type as the original stock AI bot. Some bots (see: Ronin) have been changed to make them not completely
terrible. See the list below for allowed bot types.
-Armor cannot be changed (all stock AI armor is x2 as strong anyway)
-Wedges are not allowed (both small and e-wedges) unless they are a part of the original stock bot. For reference the only bot allowed to use wedges is EMERGENCY.
