WEAPON 1: Connected to the drum in the centre there is a 65cm long spiked arm, it has a castor a little way up for manoeuvrability and the spike on the end can be used to snag wheel holes etc. It can move right around 360 degrees, so it can actually go down and lift the wedges up or go up and act as a normal lifter, or even do Battle-Rat style flips across the arena. It is powered by an S28-400 magmotor running at 24v, and it can also get opponents on the wedges and then hold them in place by pressing down from above. Also on either side of the arm there is a spike, so when the robot spins it can act as a thwackbot. The arm is made of tungsten carbide.
WEAPON BATTERIES: 1 x NiCad battlepack running at 24v
SRIMECH: Invertible, spikes on the sides prevent strandings
