You could do that, I suppose. Frequency has some of those, but in a rather rudimentary fashion.

Or alternatively, you could try Ice Cubed-style skirts. Tapered sides of exactly the same height, and then put heavy hinged skirts along the edges- that'll allow you to stay defended regardless of if you're flipped over or not.

GreenWar 2 looks more like Shovearound 2 than Underall, but still pretty nice.

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

i think one version of ultraviolence did a similar thing with its ring spinner, maybe add teeth on the sns?

Made a SHW puncherbot, here is Zeus:

it also has an Anti-Spinner Mode, where the thwacking tail is removed and replaced with an hinged plow (attached to the chassis)

Nice, reminds me a little of Solar Smash. I'm guessing the panel on the top is for self-righting?

I think it's different depending on the tournament. While you normally need one or two Weapon points for a srimech to work, it doesn't detract from the power of any actual weaponry. So you could have, say, 6 Weapon for the puncher, add the srimech, and the srimech will work while the puncher remains at 6 Weapon.
