I fooled around with making a few bots for BBEANS, but decided to just tweak an old favorite of mine. It got crushed by Starcore in the All Around Bot Builder Competition, but after a few adjustments, it might do better now.

Edit: guess i can't count XP it has 16 iron spikes... not the 12 indicated in the splash. Man, too much drinking this weekend.

What's with the Samurai Swords and Pole Spikes O_o? Anyhow, here's my entry. A Favorite of mine called Vela (Named after my favorite song, "Vela, Together We Await the Storm").

Mine, called Generic Rammer. I am fundamentally opposed to glitch-abusing, for some unknown reason, which is why there's no stacking.

looks like there's a lot of rammers... my robot might be able to beat them :)

I divided my popup by 2.

All i wish is not a HS as opponent.

D'ya know you could fit a nifty in there C33?

Good old Spearhead, no changes to the one in my showcase(except skin). I could have used Your Doom too, but I didnt want to use a HS in this tournament too, because thats all I have entered so far in all tournaments.

C-33, you have some extra weight there you could take advantage of..., in a couple ways.

Nice poker SSG. Looks cool and effective.

^^Should be named Cheap Win 3000.

And ACAMS your's one of a cool bot... might have lowered the irons though.

(Image removed from quote.)

That's what i entered.

4 razors on each DDT is... well, heavy, and even if this is probably my best popup, the razors get ripped off too easily for my linking, and that caster armor isn't that great in defense, and is a pain to climb by other wedged robots.

I have also a Mome Rath ripoff with wedges, 16 irons on small discs and 4WD HPZ, but it's too fragile for my liking.

Ideal Tyrant clone >< now we have 2.....

here's my Hybrid, Sandstorm (will get a paint job):

basically it gets under other bots and grinds away, should be the only bot with that setup in the tourney and could get a win.. depends on the draw and i haven't been lucky with the draw at all so far. exposed motors and below par wedge are it's weaknesses >.>

40757 · « **Reply #34 on:** April 06, 2009, 01:39:42 PM »

Condor, I'm sure you can remove the pinks and then reduce chassis size. Then you will be able to add more weapons. 1 Supervolt is enough for a HW Rammer, and pinks suck when used on HWs

Also Ian, why are there Slipperbottoms on that bot? Does it not touch the floor with hubs? :S

ianh05 · « **Reply #35 on:** April 06, 2009, 01:44:24 PM »

i think it's because the plows are too low to the ground and hubs wouldn't touch the ground.

Try turning them upside-down and then try hubs.

I am also entering bbeans 5

my actual bot is Oscillation Overthruster 2 below. It has 4 right angles( all i could fit), 4 hp ztecs inside each other(i used snappers) and dual razors at each end of the extended tribar.

OO 1 is the original version. I redid it because the motors and wheels were exposed. Also the weapon was weak and very unstable.

I might have a chance at winning
oh and can someone pm me to help me with actually showing pics in the post. It would be very helpful.

Chance at winning, HAH!
