Featherweights - Active weapon rule

[TEAM ENIGMA]

Feather dusters..........by far the best decorations for any robot

[Bodge Job]

Naaa!!! Slightly rusty black boxes ftw!!!!

[Ellis]

I think rusty stuff on robots looks awesome, haha.

[PJ-27]

You'll like Bitza 2 then!

[psychostorm]

ceri, you cant give it to yourself with your ninja sheep!

Do you mind! I had a spider picture on it too! very nice it was.

Anyway, I'd be out the running and still showing you all up. Prove me wrong - get decorating!

I consider Rust more dangerous myself.

Just to bring some diversity to the discussion, here is the list of robot types from the RioBotz tutorial, since so far we have just been talking in terms of HP systems, spinners and Rambots.

rammers, wedges, lifters, launchers, thwackbots, overhead thwackbots, spearbots, horizontal spinners, sawbots, vertical spinners, drumbots, hammerbots, clampers, crushers, flamethrowers and multibots

Of those we can use:

Rammers (Rambots/Boxes)
Wedges
Spearbots
Thawkbots
Overhead Thwackbots
Multibots (Cluserbots)
Lifters
Launcher (Flippers)
Hammerbots (Axes)
Clampers (Grabbers)
Crushers

Half of that legal list doesn't have active weapons and a third of the total list are banned already.

[mattsdragons]

are cluster bots banned in all weight classes?

[jonny]

cluster bots aren't banned in any weight class

[daliad100]

I thought that with modern flippers anything really light would go through the roof? especially with heavyweights.

[jonny]

heavyweight clusterbots aren't banned they're just not allowed to fight flippers anymore. as most heavies are flippers most people tend not to build them
