So I thought we might need to nail down some official rules for this.

I am thinking some modification of Sportsman and Normal rules.

Must have a weapon. Cannot be spinner. :3 sportsman allows sawblades, but if you banned those then you can have an open arena...

nah, anything with compressed air can easily make high speed eye hazards. Even without that it only takes one chip flying off and somebody is going to have a bad day.

Perhaps open if everybody is wearing eye protection like the "big gun boat" people but even if you did do an arena it wouldn't need to be much.

Wedge, lifter, flipper, grabber. Hopefully, too many wedges get boring. Its an excuse to build that walker or clamper or something else that you never though you could build in a normal comp as it would get torn to shreds.

Make active weapons a requirement, 100%. the last series of robot wars had that and it was by far the best for it imho.

Does Vendetta need a weapon? I've only been working on it and haven't touched Avenger. In fact I was going to put Avenger on the shelf indefinitely.
Also what arena will be used? I'm hoping Vendettas speed has increased and it might be bouncing off the walls .
