I heard we might need a dream team. Let me submit for your consideration...

Here Comes The Sun (MW)

3 Speed / 1 Traction / 1 Torque / 15 Weapon / 12 Armor
Sketchfab Render
Image

They said it couldn’t be done. They said it shouldn’t be done. They were right about the second part.

Here Comes The Sun is the mythical “vertical rammer” come to terrible, unnatural life. A combat robot without any wheels, tracks, or legs, its spherical surface is covered instead in metal spikes and pneumatic pistons. These pistons have two firing modes: the first is a low-powered, short-travel mode that can be used to roll the robot around by firing the pistons underneath and on the other side of the direction desired. The second is a high power mode that launches the entire robot into the air, so that it can come crashing down, spikes-first, on its bewildered opponent. (All the pistons retract while HCTS is airborne.)

You might say I'm a dream teamer, but I'm not the only one. Little darling, it seems like it's been years since I came up with this stupid concept. Here Comes The Sun, and I say, it’s all right (maybe.)

May as well make my own announcement for a thing happening with CBC4...

The Gauntlet

Yep, we're doing this again. It'll be nice and simple this time. When this goes live during playoffs, a brand new gauntlet arena will be revealed. Participants sign up with one of their bots entered into the main tournament (arbitraryweight), and submit their bot choice and a route to take. You may submit further strategy, but outside of the bot and lane choice, you only get 300 CHARACTERS worth of RP. That's roughly one tweet, so keep it concise. The Gauntlet arena and house robots will be designed by the CBC staff. Winners will be determined through which bot completes the course in the quickest time, or whichever bot makes it furthest if nobody clears it. Watch this space for more updates!

And now for the dream team in the middleweight division.
Nick Cage
Please follow the link before continuing reading
Renders
Image

Image
Image
Renders but its a sketchfab model
Stats:
  • Speed: 4
  • Traction: 3
  • Torque: 3
  • Weapon: 6(5 Flamethrowers / 1 Spring-loaded cage™ mechanism)
  • Armor: 14
And now for a description.
It has swerve drive, all 4 wheel pods can rotate 360° independently. The wheels have hub motors.
The mechanism that moves the cage™ is spring loaded so it can come down at high speed at the cost of being slow to move up again.
All the flamethrowers are connected to the same system.
All four sides of the inside of the cage™ have flat hinged wedges to make it harder to escape out, the hinges only have a few degrees of movement to avoid any problems.
And yes this thing is massive, remember that Abserd (the green bot in the animation) is a heavyweight.

Potential Dream team (honestly i dont care what weight class it goes in)

Hockey Puck
Image
Its a melty brain spinner that may or may not be made of an oversized hockey puck. Also has the Boston logo on it because I think most of us will enjoy destroying it more that way.

Speed: 10 | Traction: 1 | Torque: 1 | Weapon: 10 | Armour 8
