A lot of the really impressive stuff in these new seasons comes from relaxing the rules mostly. There's a just a single higher weight class so every thing is both more durable and more destructive. Flamethrowers, drones and even some projectiles are allowed. Some builders are playing with AI targeting for their bots. But the most successful bots are really just taking tried and true concepts, like bar spinners, and min-maxing and refining it to perfection. --- Dedicated to D - 4/15/05 <cite>NightRender posted [p:947874931] in BattleBots...
