'''PROS'''
 +
 +
- weapon-dedicated
 +
 +
- Very defensive if built right
 +
 +
- Unpredictable and always mobile, can be difficult for bots that need precision for landing shots on them
 +
 +
- Avoids many factors that often confuse AI in RA2, like unnoticed obstructions
 +
 +
- Very simple to build
 +
 +
 +
- Can be light on batteries because most only need one motor for drive and one for the weapon
 +
 +
 +
'''CONS'''
 +
 +
- Can be completely avoided/ignored if your have more points in the damage category than they do for an easy win
 +
 +
- Nearly uncontrollable and can roam straight into arena hazards or pits
 +
 +
- IRL designs would demand a low-gear weapon and drivetrain design to avoid seizing up in corners and would lack any possible means of doing sufficient damage if they collide with an enemy. (hence why none are even attempted)
 +
 +
- Can self-destruct from hitting walls/ demand very high durability
 +
 +
- Not aggressive at all
 +
 +
- breaking the weapon completely stalls the bot once it hits something
