Added DiffLines:

** In terms of items, the Scrap Box and Large Scrap Box, which give you an instant 300 and 600 scrap when used, respectively. Not as flashy or destructive as a barrage of missiles down a lane, but it'll help you gain an edge in resources, especially in a pinch.


Added DiffLines:

** [[InvertedTrope However,]] in the story missions the opponents don't have access to items, unlike in the Robo League.

On closer inspection, the Anti-Armor trope only applies when Armor makes the attack worse, not just simply an Armor-Piercing Attack.


* AntiArmor: Robots with the Armor Piercing ability ignore all Armor and Block abilities on their target. Robots with the Armor Breaker perk take this a step further- not only do they ignore Armor and Block, they deal double damage to any robot with Armor.

Added DiffLines:

* RedEyesTakeWarning: The rogue robots found in the side missions "Urban Evacuation" and "Refinery Mishap" all use the NIT Tiger Shark, which has red eyes. As for the evil part, in said missions they attempt to assault a large urban centre and threaten a large refinery.
** While some head parts have red eyes, no part is this trope better than the K-1000 Death Head- a legendary head part which not only increases stats across the board (except speed), but gives a hard 40% buff to damage dealt.

Added DiffLines:

** It doesn't stop there, either; some of the enemy robots [[MyRulesAreNotYourRules blatantly violate the rules]] by breaking their weight cap. Thankfully, it doesn't happen often and it's usually only by 1 or 2 points.

* JokeItem: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] with the Can Head. The FlavorText notes that it was built from a large beverage container, and "If only it weren't nearly useless it would be the would be the perfect head." Stat-wise, it's pretty bad, decreasing both damage and range. However, it's fairly cheap at only 15 scrap, so even though there are ''much'' better options out there, it can be used seriously.
