Lol, I forgot about the option to change the layout so once I did I noticed that... At first I thought it loged me in as Goose but when I posted at first (without the pic) I thought it was going to say my username was Goose.

Mine bot so simple, its complex! All it is a E-TEK powered ramer armed with a spike. And when I say E-TEK, I mean SIX.

I would build an AW or Bw, with a Horizontal Spinner on the front, and some spikes on the back
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

i would build a DUAL HS with a chassis shaped like a Y. the vertical line would house batts and drive, and then the chassis would be lower for the 2 motors at the end of the diagonal lines of the Y. they would have a disc each, facing upward. i dont know what weapon yet, but they would be small (like hypnodisc) so they could pull the opponent in and chew.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

Keep in mind that HSers do not work as well in real life as they do in RA2, though. Vertical spinners are usually a more popular choice.

I would build a MW featuring four, motorized, spinning attatchments around the bot, for drills and drums. The bot can also spin, flailing the spinning weapons at the opponent. Never seen a bot like that but it would be interesting to watch.

What Kill? VS are great in the antweight division, but when you see Nightmare getting raped... Vertical spinners have a weakness against HS. But this can be solved quite easily.

True, I was thinking more AW than higher weight classesw because that's all you hear about nowadays. Point taken.

Well, I do believe VS are truly effective in the lower weight classes.

Antweights VS own ; LW and MW VS can be really good (Backlash and 259), but heavyweights are less successful and superheavyweight VS's do suck (these are rare, btw).

I'd build a 6 wheel drive SHW lifter, quite similar to Sewer Snake, but with a bit more side armour, or a MW flipper, kind of like Ziggy.

Am I the first to suggest a bot like devil?
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

Changing my mind... MW's are costly.

BW VS, with a darn good wedge like InfCon, a big disc and good motors, but few armor.
