So 3.5 years ago I made an awesome-looking crusher that never saw competition bc I couldn't fit the right amount of batteries to make it last 3 minutes. Today, I rebuilt it it from the ground up. Here's Dragon Khan Dynasty

Been on a bit of a building kick lately, finished Halberd 2 for future tournament use. Shortened the axe for better contact, swapped to 6 wheel drive to have a lower profile, and swapped to a panel wedge. The end result is hopefully a better fighter, with a slightly more interesting shape.

Bot dump time

 
2023-01-05 (2).png


This is Black Lotus, an HS I built to get back into the swing of things with RA2... well, 4 months ago. Recently went back in, gave it a blade that isn't anemic, cleaned up the rear, and gave it a CW and HW version. Not expecting it to do well in tournaments, but it's hard for me to make a tombclone I don't find either pathetic or oversized so I'll take this as a W.

Next up is Parapet, which I built as a reserve for Matthews' Major in the event that I couldn't find something better. I'm personally very happy with the crossbow on the top, but it of course would prolly never win a fight. Happy with the classis RW vibe for this though.

Finally, Dan challenged me to recreate an old CAD of an ARC bot I was given, so I relearned OBJ chassis importing and put this together. Finishing Move has arguably too much drive, very powerful weapon, but a very poor wedge and little armor. But damn is it cool.

Day 6: Revenant II

A couple days away and I'm back with an old MW I've brought back from the dead. Slight inspiration from jank-ass Robogames bots, but I think it's come out looking pretty decent! Also the 24v single mag packs a decent punch for MW, to my pleasant surprise

Day 3: Wolfpack

To counter the hordes of sailboats on this day, I built a multibot inspired by the Hecht Wolfpack, a squadron of WW2 U-boats. Is it good? I don't know. Is it hell for anyone who hosts it? Most definitely.

Day 2: Blazing Blazer

So I wasn't planning to adhere to the original prompt of 'Suit,' but than I came up with a really dumb name and took the opportunity to experiment with 30cm extenders to make weight-efficient wheelguards. Overall happy with this for what it is, though I should probably start making some more interesting bots in future haha

Day 1: Onyx Steel

Wait, what do you mean it's the 2nd? What do you mean 'onyx isn't technically a crystal?' Shut up and take my CW undercutter!

Forgot to post here, but entries are closed and all the bots have been checked. Unfortunately, due to a lack of entries, there re now only 7 groups. The two 3rd place bots with the most points will be awarded the final two bracket spots.

For GTM Civil War, I was brainwashed into becoming a horrible, evil villain. Disgusting. Thankfully, I'd been meaning to make another LoL bot based on Xerath, so after a couple failed attempts, I came up with this. 6-mag for the weapon is a bit underpowered, but it's worked decently in testing. End of the day, I probably won't have the best-performing bot on my team, but it absolutely shouldn't be the worst-looking.

Oh, also I made an even more evil bot just in case someone dips

Signups have been extended to June 26th because I have been busier than expected as of late.

14 bots have been received! Also, I have clarified the rule about the mounting of belted motors (Perms and belted TMW3Rs) after realizing the initial wording was very vague.

You thought I'd let my showcase slip to page 2? False!

Can you name a single IRL robot or builder that will be remembered 12 years from now like Hazardous Contraption?
