You don't need much armor when it can easily slide under and kill the opponent within seconds. >=D

Also, do both bots use Rolo's old chassis?

Not exactly. When my computer crashed, I had to completely rebuild Rolo. They both use the same chassis, yes, but it isn't the exact same chassis that was entered in past tournaments.

Battle Slug, an idea for a bot I'm working on. Lot of stuff that I need to work out, I'll keep you posted.

Try switching the plows in the front for wedges.

But the plows make it look cooler! XD

If you do have extra weight, wedges would be nice. And two of your drive motors aren't rotated properly. But still <3. :D

So close that I would have used Irons but they would hit the ground. The drive motors NEED to be turned around because it will not turn at any measurable speed how it is.

Redefining the term heavily armored Vs...

4 Casters...
4 SnowPlows...
2 Lawnmower blades...
4 Hp Drive...
8 Irons...
2 Black Batteries...

The ugliest stock bot to ever fight in the arena, I give you the Battle Slug:

I don't think it's ugly. What burst motor is used for the wedges?

Wedges are DDT bursts.

Like reier said, you don't need blades on the wedges.
Maybe instead of 4 plows, in the top row, put one, centered plow, and then you could use weight on something else like weapons

No new bots, but I'm working on reskinning Stratocaster to look more realistic:



The skin itself needs to be reworked because I messed it up, but the lexan is what I was actually focusing on here. Compare it to the old:

If you're really going for realism, you should reskin the baseplate grid so it's not green.


Nice work with the lexan effect though.  Any bot looks better with some plastic blur IMO, because it masks the 2D-ness of the skin.

I discovered a few things about bot files yesterday, and i'm sure you can make the top side invisible with a few number editing.
